"After I had a series of bad visits in our local francie and benny filialen, I was reserved to visit. after an evening event in sheffield arena, this was the only place where we could get a table. I can't believe how different it was at our earlier visits in our local. the coworkers were all excellent. they were helpful and dedicated and attentive. we fought to decide what to eat (supply for the waitress who came 3 times to our order as we lasted so long) so ordered to share several dishes. the whole food was hot and served in good time. beautiful crispy fries. the chicken parmigiana was huge and served both with a good part of spaghetti and fries. very tasty and a good coating of brotkrust with exactly the right amount of sauce. really enjoyed the bacon kartoffel skins and acid cream. my daughter had a burger who looked very nice, but she totally defeated her when it was quite big. I was honest about the quality of food and how different this experience was for others. we had a couple of cocks. the blueberry crucifixion was amazing. really refreshing and a nice fizz. the prices of the mocktails felt very reasonable, and a good selection on the menu. perfect for drivers or non-trinkers who want something more beautiful than a soft drink. a very pleasant meal and excellent evening. still shocked how different and inconsistent 2 restaurants can be from the same chain. we'll see you next time in sheffield. well made frankie and benny’s entertainment center"

"Although we have been to F and Bs before we were disappointed this time round. Firstly the attachment highchair for my son, although the right size and nice to have him at the table was quite dirty. As it was made of canvas it would be hard to clean and did have a smell to it. The restaurant itself was very noisy and we had to really shout to hear each other at our table. The service however was good. Polite and prompt. However most disappointingly was that my wife discovered an inch long metal shard in her food! Staff apologised and made some fresh food but understandably she wasn’t too keen to eat any more and I was concerned what my children had eaten as this had a similar spaghetti dish. I would certainly think again before rebooking. Shame"

"First time visiting Frankie and Benny's with a friend. We were politely welcomed to a seat and asked if we would like anything to drink before the waitress left. We asked for some time to decide what we wanted to order. The waitress returned promptly after serving customers who were ready to order. This was reasonable time for us. We then ordered drinks and two courses each. A starter and a main. The drinks were brought over in good time for us to settle and have a chat. The starters arrived not long after. My friend ordered a garlic bread pizza which he described as greasy but tasty. I decided to have the mozzarella dippers which tasted bland, even with the sauce. A couple of them were overcooked. For our mains we ordered a vegan burger with sweet potato fries and a plain 6oz burger with fries. The vegan burger was very tasty, however the sweet potato fries were slightly overcooked but still rather nice. The plain 6oz burger arrived : not plain. It had to be sent back and corrected. However my friend was pleased with it once it came back. We were rather full afterwards and decided to pass on trying a dessert. We asked for the tab and it came back to us at an incorrect amount. We soon realised they charged for a jug of the cocktail I ordered instead of a glass and 2 servings of coke. We brought this up to the waitress and she fixed the issue with the cocktail but informed us that because we ordered the coke from the main menu, instead of the side menu (even though they are the same price) that the refills would not be free. 7/10 food. 6/10 service. Wouldn't be somewhere I'd go back in a hurry as there are far superior eateries for similar prices."

"Booked a table for mother’s day and got to restaurant and had to wait 40 minutes for a table . All they said is they are busy. Happened to lots of other people who had to wait a lot longer. No staff gave any explanation. Very noisy in restaurant."

"Walking into Prezzo today it was quiet and we were sat very quickly by a lovely male server (didn’t catch his name but he had a septum piercing). He was incredibly accommodating and when I asked for a calorie free menu he went out of his way to go and find one! We ordered drinks and decided to go alcohol free, we tried both the strawberry and blood orange lemonade which were very tasty and well worth the money. The food was also very flavourful. We ordered calamari to start which was beautifully seasoned and wasn’t too chewy and the Tartar sauce was a nice compliment to them. For mains we had the chicken Alfredo which was once again beautiful, creamy and flavourful. The spaghetti bolognese was well seasoned and very tasty! And the chicken and pepper pizza was cooked beautifully, crispy base and lots of flavour! Unfortunately the visit felt almost spoiled by the attitude of servers. It did take a good 20 minutes for us to even have our order taken but the food came out very quickly. When I asked a different server for a sharper knife/ pizza cutter for the pizza she looked at me with a very ‘fed up’ expression and then quite rudely pointed at the table we were sat at if to say go and sit down. After paying we waited for our friend to use the toilet and were stared at by a server who seemed annoyed that we were waiting around. Then whilst going to leave we said thank you (common decency) and were met with a very aggressive ‘bye.’ Nothing else. You would think after spending a considerable amount of money in a restaurant the customer service would be a lot more friendly. I work in the service industry and I understand it can be frustrating but unfortunately I wasn’t the only one in our group who felt the passive aggressiveness of the servers. All in all; tasty food and drinks. The male server who sat us and took our order was lovely. It’s just a shame it was let down by the attitude of others."

"Despite reserving a table for four two days ahead of time, we were informed upon arrival that we would have to wait 20 to 30 minutes for our table. I waited for 25 minutes with my elderly mother and three-year-old daughter, but the table was still unavailable. Other patrons mentioned they had been waiting for 45 minutes. Eventually, we decided to go next door to Friendly Phil's, where we were seated within five minutes in a much nicer and better-organized environment. Overall, our experience at Frankie and Benny's was terrible; it was clear they had overbooked and the staff couldn’t manage the situation. I won’t be returning."

"I booked the table online, although there was a Wigan game on, but the recipe could best be described as hostile. the gruß said there was no record of the booking I arrived a little early and you said I had to wait 45 minutes. I let the rude and abrupt one I have experienced go to the embarrassment of my daughter's sake. I asked for the table in 45 minutes and said I had a drink at the bar. I sat 10 minutes later at one of the 5 empty tables in the restaurant! the eating was ok, but nothing special, the place was busy, so the waiter was stretched and the individual table service was thereby suffered."

"First visit and probably my last,wasn’t impressed at all with the presentation of my pizza,I did ask the server if the pizzas were thin she said yes,but didn’t think they would be as thin as they were ,also very insipid looking not very appetising to look at, I ordered a margarita pizza which I asked for olives which were green first time Ive had green olives on my pizza, also red onions which were chopped up into small pieces, when the pizza arrived at the table my plate underneath was black from the oven,and my pizza bottom was black as well not burnt black ash from the oven not appetising at all,I did take photographs of it, spoke to the server and told her to tell the chef, but it was like nobody cared, very poor show. Also your toilets were a mess toilet paper all over the floor no soap to wash your hands .Look at the pic and see if you would like that?"

"Picture the scene. It was a cold and windy Friday morning. My good lady and myself braved the long and dangerous journey to Hereford in search of gifts for our sons birthday. The unforgiving weather forced us to seek shelter, so we did in this establishment. After a brief wait (despite the place being empty! we were seated and our order was taken. Boom. As fast as lightning our beverages arrived. Mine a black coffee, for my wife a tea. Our breakfasts arrived and immediately I felt happy and sad at the same time. The food looked nice which made me happy. Sausage, egg, spuds and mushrooms all looked good. The bacon was slightly undercooked for my taste but what really made me sad was the fact that the beans were seperated from the rest of the food and were imprisoned in a bowl! A bowl! I mean why? If I wanted the beans seperated from my eggs I would use the sausage as a breakwater but I 'd like it to be my choice. Anyway, I soon freed the beans and poured them from the bowl of hate and they mingled on the plate with the rest of the ingredients. Long story short, the breakie was good, and only a fiver too. If you can get over the 'beans segregation policy ' you might enjoy the breakfasts too. I have enclosed a photo for your viewing pleasure. Not of the beans but of the view from my table looking upwards. Many thanks, hope you have enjoyed this review. If so please shout 'FREE THE BEANS ' as loud as you like."

"We had a reservation but still had to wait 35 minutes to be seated, which was a bit frustrating. However, we understand that Christmas Day can be busy. The service and atmosphere were good, with friendly staff. Unfortunately, due to the crowded restaurant, there were several mistakes with our orders. We did not receive the amuse bouche that was listed on the menu, my pan-fried scallops were undercooked and missing caviar, and my rib eye steak was unseasoned and came with minimal sides. The dessert I wanted was not available, so I had to settle for something else. Overall, I only received about half of what was promised on the menu, and for £95 per person, I felt disappointed and ripped off. I wish I had just cooked Christmas dinner myself. As a student, it's difficult to justify spending so much money on a disappointing meal. While I have enjoyed dining here before, this experience was very disappointing. It's possible that overbooking led to these issues."

"Overall Average food with below average service. Sat down and given drinks but no large beers only small. Took a while to take order for food even though was not even 6 tables full . Food arrived and was okay. At 15.99 a pizza you expect it to be worth it but was just average. Desserts didn't come out together. Asked for bill, no free kids meal deducted so asked waitress to amend and also blue light card. Waitress disappeared and never came back then other waitress appeared to be told we can't use blue light card with kids discount. By this time was just ready to leave so paid and left. Won't be returning. Plus don't take cash too"

"My family and I have been regular customers at F&B's Didsbury for quite some time now, in fact, it's been years! The deals they offer are always fantastic. I have never had a meal here that didn't taste good, and if there have ever been any issues, the staff have always gone above and beyond to make it right. I would have to say that the best thing about this place is the staff. They always greet us by name and make our experience feel personalized. They are also very eager to keep us as loyal customers, which we don't mind at all! They are very accommodating when it comes to special requests with our orders, and they have a great selection for vegans as well. It's nice to see familiar faces every time we visit, and there is no doubt that my family will continue to come back here. Keep up the great work!"

"a couple of times. not the best eating and personal hard to catch to get any kind of quality service. very loud music cones on freezing and courteous inquiries to turn one down, and the other up have been answered with this, is as it always sticky tables, lip pen on glass, not mine. minutes for net that were not good quality. commentary of waitress are not very hungry, since it has collected the overcooked dried pasta and burned garlic bread. Try it again."

"frankie benny is generally good. eating in this special restaurant is pleasant: I had some great ribs from here, with many super sweet BBQ sauce. on a separate occasion I ordered to start a garlic bead, and a pizza for my pornstar. When the starter came out, I thought it was the main thing. frankie bennys garlic bread is in the round a pizza base with a garlic mixture above. I probably saw everyone eating pizza after pizza. still, very pleasant. a part of the service I had at f b was completely perfect. Some don't. it seems to be a bit hit and miss in this opposite. I like the 50s decoration and style of layout, it is something else."
"This is not a place to go if you value your time. If you don't and want a cheap meal out and yes, this is the place for you. Though I will weep for your tastebuds. We went to this restaurant about 90 minutes before our movie was to start. There were 4 booths empty and a whole set of tables empty as well, so I thought it wouldn't be long before we'd get a table. The Hostess gave us a buzzer and told us it would be a 15 minute wait and we can sit at the bar area for drinks and wait. I hate it when restaurants do this, shuffling patrons over to the bar area, where invariably the drinks are overpriced. That 15 minute wait turned into 28 minutes. When I went up to the Hostess and complained magically they were able to seat us. Our waitress was very prompt with our drinks order and food order. So kudos to her, whoever she is. My companion had a burger and chips two small onion rings. I ordered the spagetti bolognese (but with penne pasta instead). My companion's burger looks pretty good it had cheese and bacon and looked juicy. Mine looked like they used some store bought jar sauce, and it tasted like it. For the pleasure of rather unappetizing pasta I paid the glorious amount of £8.95. I value it at £2. as the pasta wasn't fresh and neither was the sauce. Don't come here if you value your time. There are better ways to spend your time."

"I was looking forward to going to the cinema next door with my partner on a rare day off we had each and decided to pop in here to try it out and ended up regretting that decision. We was welcomed in by a guy at the front desk and taken to a seat. We checked they had a disabled access toilet for my partner as she is a wheelchair user and they did which is the only plus thing in this review. We were seated at a table in a restaurant that was easily less than a quarter full and did not get seen for over 10 mins, not even for drinks, I had to request someone come over as the guy on front desk was on his phone and the 2 waitresses were standing and chatting to each other. Eventually we got served but the waitress taking our order didn't even look at us whilst doing so and was looking at someone else on another table. The vegan milkshake was good and the expresso martini was below average. We both had hot dogs and the bun was dry as old leather, I left mine but my partner was so hungry she forced her way through. The actual hot dog was also dry and with the speed we was served our meal I'm sure it had been cooked a long time ago and left out to dry. Couldn't find anyone to ask for the bill so in the end a guy emerged from a back office and I said I wanted to pay, he gave the bill then asked a waitress to come and setlle up. Terrible food and diabolical customer service. Will not be returning to this establishment any time in the future."

"Decided to have an evening out at the cinema, then wanted something to eat so we went into Frankie and Benny's. First off our waiter was Alex M, fantastic guy who was funny and very helpful and made time for everyone he was serving. Food was excellent had burger followed by tiramisu and coffee, just finished the evening off perfectly. Would definitely go there again."
