The best restaurants in Lismore

21/07/2025: I walked into Frank's Fryer a boy, and left a man with a large chips in hand. Frank's Fryer is a culinary landmark, a beacon of deliciousness in a world of ordinary food. The aroma alone is enough to make your mouth water. A symphony of sizzling juicy sausages, crispy golden chips, and the tantalizing scent of freshly fried everything. The pizzas are handmade to perfection, perfectly encapsulating the love and care the staff put into every meal. Speaking of staff there is a particularly dashing till boy working in there making it well worth a visit! All in all, after you come to Frank's all other food pales in comparison, truly the pinnacle of thousands of years of culinary evolution. It is an honour to be able to visit this monumentally magnificent establishment. "Hark, a feast! Frank's Fryer doth provide, a culinary joy where taste and joy collide!" - Shakespeare

26/07/2025: Order here maybe once a month. Food arrives when they say it will, it's tasty. Lady on the phone is always pleasant. A great service when you're just not in the mood to cook.

14/07/2025: Partner has nut allergy and had reaction to food that has no nuts in it. Food hygiene must be improved. Simply NOT ACCEPTABLE.

24/07/2025: We used to be a regular to this place. The food was lovely and the price was fair. However, this place has gone downhill. Customer service is almost none. We went in on a quiet Thursday. On our way in, the waitress was already sleeping on the table. We didn't pay much attention at first. Then she made a comment while leading us to our table, saying "I'm so tired!". In a tone that implied we were a nuisance to her!! We ignored her, trying not to let that ruin our evening. She was very unattentive the whole time and was borderline rude on a few occassions. But we did enjoy the food, so we went back a few weeks later. The same staff again! She walked us to the table while still talking on WhatsApp. We don't need to be treated like royals but at least the minimum courtesy! We do feel very unwelcomed there. She might be the owner I don't know. If you don't want our business, we don't have to come back, honestly!
