Frankie is open everyday for breakfast, lunch, beverages and snacks throughout the Mt. Hotham ski season from 8am. On the rare occasion that we are closed early, it could be due to the Big D Ski run and lift being closed.

Frankie will be open 2 nights a week during the ski season. Wednesday & Saturday to enhance the fun at The Big D night skiing.

Follow us on Facebook or join our Mailing List for our announcement of official opening dates & events for this winter.
