About fraek vin

Richmond regulars treat Fraek Vin like an open living room—one backed by a cellar of vin nature and zero printed lists. You tell the staff what you feel like drinking; they pour by the glass to match your mood. The food stays simple and Dutch-leaning, built around sharp pickles, quince, and toasted bread beside plates of cheese.

  • Curated Pours: No printed wine list—staff recommend by-the-glass pours and takeaway bottles tailored to your mood on the day.
  • Dutch-Inspired Grazing: Simple snack boards loaded with mixed cheeses, pickles, quince, and toasted bread.
  • Neighbourhood Pace: An easygoing Bridge Road setting built for solo drinks, low-key dates, and relaxed afternoon catch-ups.
