Frankie’s Restaurant & Bar is thrilled to announce that we’ve been awarded Bronze in the Tourism Restaurants & Catering Services category at the 2024 NSW Tourism Awards! This incredible recognition is a testament to our commitment to creating unforgettable dining experiences that celebrate the best of Lithgow and beyond.
We want to take a moment to thank our incredible team for their passion, creativity, and hard work. You make Frankie’s shine every day! To our wonderful guests, your ongoing support and encouragement mean the world to us—you’re the reason we do what we do.
Directors Genna Inzitari, Sandra Inzitari, and our Restaurant Duty Manager, Michelle Robles, attended to receive the award.
Head Chef Frank Pantano was on holiday out of state this week, so he could not attend the awards. However, he was thrilled when he heard the news.
"Love doing what comes natural to me. So I just love to pass it on to my loyal and local customers." --Head Chef, Frank Pantano.
Congratulations to Frank, Michelle, and their teams for this fantastic achievement.
Congratulations to Potager, Carool (Hall of Fame & Gold) and Pipit Restaurant, Pottsville (Silver), for their outstanding contributions to food tourism in New South Wales. It’s an honour to stand alongside such exceptional establishments. We'd also love to congratulate our partner, Bathurst Regional Council, for their Gold in Local Government Award for Tourism. Our property, Heritage Inn, is located in Bathurst, and we are thrilled the team won this well-deserved award.
We'd also like to congratulate our wedding partner, Wilga Station, in Bathurst, who told the Silver in Unique Accommodation. Imagine the award-winning weddings we can host together.
This achievement inspires us to continue elevating our offerings and showcasing the unique flavours of our region. Whether you’re joining us for a meal, an event, or catering, we promise to keep bringing our best to your table.
Stay tuned for exciting things to come, and we can’t wait to see you at Frankie’s soon.
