About Francie

Located on a bustling corner in South Williamsburg, Francie is a Michelin-starred brasserie housed in a handsome limestone building that once served as a bank. The restaurant strikes a sophisticated balance between mid-century modern aesthetics and the industrial soul of Brooklyn, featuring an open kitchen and an energetic bar scene. Led by Chef Christopher Cipollone, the kitchen delivers a refined menu that blends contemporary European techniques with a focused, seasonal approach.

For private gatherings, Francie offers an exceptionally exclusive experience in 'The Vault.' True to its name and the building’s heritage as a former financial institution, this semi-subterranean space provides a secluded, intimate environment away from the main dining room's roar. It is a premier destination for hosts who prioritize world-class gastronomy and a curated wine list in a setting that feels both historic and impeccably polished.
