"So So disapointed. Only booked a few weeks ago and chose this on the basis of what cocktails were available for a bottomless brunch. Got there and they had changed the choices..to ones we did not like. The said it would have been on an email but the email I received the day before had none of this info. If it had, we would have cancelled as can have prosecco brunch locally!. Finally the manager agreed for us to have another choice but that was after were were going to walk. Service was always polite but so so slow. Had to call someone over more times than not and it wasnt even busy.The food was lovely I have to say but the other MASSIVE complaint was there was no live DJ as advertised, No vibe just piped music..why was it advertised as a kitchen disco brunch. Very very disappointed and DO NOT recommend."

"We'd originally tried an independent place but turned out the great vegan menu on their website was no more available, so last minute trip to a chain. We were served really quickly, and I think their vegan options were different to last time I'd been. I went for lots of vegan cheese options. Nearly £13 for a pasta dish felt a bit much, but it was filling with lots of flavour and loaded with more than just tomato sauce. The dessert was very sweet and rich; I'd share one next time."

"**Meal Type:** Dinner **Price per Person:** £10–20 **Food Rating:** 2/5 **Service Rating:** 1/5 **Atmosphere Rating:** 2/5 I recently dined at this restaurant for dinner and had a rather disappointing experience. The food was below average, earning only a 2 out of 5 for its lack of flavor and presentation. The service was particularly disappointing, rating just a 1 out of 5—our server seemed inattentive and unwelcoming. As for the atmosphere, it felt quite underwhelming, deserving a rating of 2. Overall, I was not impressed with my visit and wouldn't recommend it."

"A fabulous Italian restaurant great atmosphere, fabulous service and food, and lovely staff. A group of six of us had dinner there on Saturday night after seeing Abba Voyage and when the staff heard where we had been they put Abba music on! It was my birthday and although no one in our party had told the staff they overheard us talking and made my dessert extra special with a huge sparkler. We had a great night and will definitely go back."

"absolutely horrific from beginning to end. we had our 2 year old son with us, which means that meal times in the regular are made quite fast as we get the food at once and he eats quickly. not this time! we were there about 2 hours because of the shocking service. it wasn't busy and it seemed to be more employees than customers, so there was simply no excuse. highlights included: the woman asked for a j20, was brought quite another drink. small child received a color leaf and then said there were no crayons to use. he asked that all foods (beginners and main things) be brought out at the same time, we got the adult starter after about 20mins. no sign of the rest of the food. the adult starter was then deleted, and 20mins later the rest of the food arrived, including the child starter?! margherita pizza had practically no cheese on it and was flat cold, took a bite and sent him back what I have never done before! the replacement had a little more beeping, but still quite naked. had to remind the waiter several times to get cute. to dessert we ordered a coffee and an ice cream. nothing came up for over 20 minutes, we chased it up. then they brought the ice and ice. No sign of coffee at the place where we 'd finish the other desserts. I went in and canceled so we could go. the only plus point was when I asked to pay so that we could go, the waiter tried to serve the cashier and "pressed the wrong taste '. he went to another, until with a colleague, after 5mins of the head scratches, he then gave me a bill for. £9.70! Not bad for a three cursor meal for three of us with drinks. I paid and went, thought they had something for the terrible service, but about the reflexion and no one said everything I think they just messed up the bill. probably the worst culinary experience I've ever had, pathetic simply because we had a nice day and the sun seemed."

"I went to this restaurant for my birthday with some friends and we received amazing service! The server offered us drinks before we even sat down and checked for any allergies. This level of attention to detail was fantastic and something I had never experienced before. Additionally, the presentation of our meals was extraordinary, like a work of art! We will definitely be returning to this restaurant."

"First of the lady that served us , Tracy I believe her name was , she was fantastic, could not ask for a better service, breakfast was good and well priced although I'm not a fan of mushrooms cooked in oil , I'm more of a butter person. The decaf coffee was top notch , I found the decor to be warm and inviting, seats were very comfortable and the atmosphere in general was good , I'd say a 9 out of 10 score and would definitely return...as long as we get a chat with Tracy again ....such a fun soul"

"After booking a table well in advance, arrived at the restaurant to be told we didn’t have a booking. We were then placed at a table and a waiter, who can’t speak or understand English, took our drinks order. Having placed the drinks order, we waited in anticipation for it to arrive, when the wine and beer arrived there was one beer short. Having waited we then had to go to the front and ask for it. The waiter then got totally confused and brought more beer than was requested anyway that was sorted. We order the spicy wings that is advertised with a blue cheese dipping and of course get told there is no blue cheese dipping . The main meal seemed to go off without problems. However, we had to continually ask for the empty glasses to be removed to make place for the plates. Then we get to dessert where a restaurant doesn’t have cream to make an Irish Coffee. So all in all Frankie Benny will not see us there again"
"We tried four different restaurants to reach Suffolk foodhall, Oyster, Harvester, all too busy on a Saturday morning 10:00 and then my daughter suggested, try Frankie and Benny's. I wish we had tried Frankie and Benny's first, and they were really quiet. He went in. We ordered the food. Quickly got out. The staff is beautiful, beautiful atmosphere. I didn't know it was still open and food came out. Breakfast was delicious for £10.50 full English breakfast eggs. Sausage Toast black pudding beans mushrooms all beautiful Bacon was beautiful. There were 11 of us. The young lady who served us was really beautiful. I couldn't do enough for us. We sit and look around. Really good. Good atmosphere if you want something nice to eat and good atmosphere. good, clean experience. Try honestly and Benny is still open. Still good food well enjoyed it"

"Sadly Frankie Bennys is no longer a go to place for us. 10 years ago, the decor was much nicer as it tried to ape the old school Italian American restaurants of the 1950 's, but today 's decor is bland and uninteresting. The wait for food was well over an hour, not remotely enough kitchen staff to cope, glad we didn 't have the starters as that would have dragged the night on even further. The menu? A shadow of what it used to be, and £17.90 for a double burger and fries is Steak prices. £3.90 for a large Coke is beyond ridiculous, cheaper to drink alcohol. The food was simply OK, there isn 't the choice their used to be, no more Little Italy Mussels, the pizza whilst freshly made wasn 't exactly filling, not very large and thin. I wouldn 't mind so much, but in the past it was quite expensive to eat there but then they had a much broader menu, today, not nearly as much and yet for four of us and a small child, our bill exceeded £100, and that was no starters and no desserts. The problem for me is I don 't see Frankie Bennys justified in charging that much anymore, it all feels very corporate chain, certainly not the same as a small independent restaurant that could charge that much, it feels like a slightly posher experience than Burger King or McDonalds. End of the road for us, our last time."

"I recently dined at Francie Bennys in Coventry and it was absolutely terrible. Let me tell you a joke – I would have been better off going to Burger King instead. I ordered a cajun chicken sandwich which came with fries and coleslaw. When the food arrived, the coleslaw was soggy and I couldn't even bring myself to eat it. The portion of fries was so small, I could count them – there were exactly 23. The chicken sandwich was also disappointing as it was served stone cold. It seemed like they had just reheated a pre-cooked chicken breast in the microwave for 20 seconds before serving it. The sandwich cost £9.95 and a coke was £2.10, making a total of £12.05 for a meal that even a dog wouldn't want to eat. I didn't want to cause a scene by complaining, but I definitely won't be returning."

"We visit Frankie Benny's fairly regularly, and are always fairly pleased with the service and food provided. Just lately, we have been having to wait for a table, and have noted that others seem to get seated prior to us for no apparent reason, so I chose to pre book a table in order to negate the wait I was totally unimpressed with the waste of time that Open Table were the booking wasn't known to F B's, and the entire thing was a waste of my time F B's GOOD, Open Table RUBBISH"

"we approached the writing and asked for a table of 6 to say: "Don't worry about anything until 8 o'clock". that was around 6.05 clock, the restaurant was half empty ... so we went online for 6.15 clock with open re-entered ... told them we had a reservation, observed “some heated words”. between the staff and we were taken to a perfectly empty table for 6. just 50 minutes waiting for our food. that said our server was friendly and apologetic. eating was ok, 2 pizzas, 3 calzones and a sirloin steak, that was definitiw rump, as it was to think and took hard to sirloin! to the happiness we have a taste card so that the meal with a softdrink cost only £10 per head, and we were limited due to a cinema booking for time. lection learned book before entering, and use it taste card, not sure that I would have paid the bill in full amount, we had not discounted!"

"had to wait for our previously booked table. eating was very boring/average and the noise level, including the music, was just too much. the price was quite steep for the quality of the event. we wouldn't go back. I would just say that our waiter was very smiling against unhappy. there is a lot of competition on the retail park where they are based, they need on their game."
"At Frankie & Benny’s, you get what you pay for. The meals are very affordable, and it is understood that the quality matches the price. We started with the BBQ chicken wings, which were generously coated in sauce and tasted great. For our main courses, we had pizza and a hot dog. I especially enjoyed my goat cheese pizza, although the crust was a bit disappointing as it was still raw in some spots. The waiter was friendly and enthusiastic at our table, but the service was quite slow. The waitress apologized multiple times but didn’t provide any explanation for the delays. We also had to order our drinks ourselves, and it took a while for the food to arrive. We thought we had plenty of time for coffee before heading to the cinema, but we ended up paying the bill as soon as the drinks arrived because we were concerned about the wait. Overall, it was a pleasant experience."

"Made a booking for 7pm as wasn’t sure how busy it would be and didn’t want to be turned away. Arrived 6.50pm and taken straight to table. 7pm drinks order taken. 7.20pm food order taken. Meal didn’t arrive until 8pm. Food was great and just what we ordered however the long wait ruined the enjoyment. It looked like a lot of take away orders were being prioritised above sit ins which is a disappointment. We had made the effort to attend in person and would have gladly spent more money here but the wait put us off. I wouldn’t rush back here and I wouldn’t recommend to family and friends as I wouldn’t want them to be disappointed. Sad to think that higher management may see a decline in footfall and close store because of this but the truth is people do wish to visit for a sit in meal but the poor service is off putting."

"We attended a wedding celebration and took advantage of a Groupon deal for a two-course meal for £30, which allowed us to save £36 on our total bill—truly fantastic value! The menu offered plenty of options, and the restaurant was clean and welcoming. Our server, Courtney, was exceptionally kind, especially considering it was only her second day on the job. The chef, Matt, was outstanding and even crafted rose shapes out of our tomatoes. Overall, we experienced first-class customer service and top-quality food, which was cooked to perfection."

"We brought a group of 60 children and 7 staff members to have dinner at Frankie and Benny's in Peterborough (Fengate) and we were extremely impressed by our experience. It can be challenging to have so many 10 to 11 year olds in a restaurant, but we can honestly say that the 2 hours we spent there were fantastic. The food was excellent, it arrived quickly, was served efficiently, and was absolutely delicious. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every child had a great time, and the adults were also very impressed. Every member of the staff worked tirelessly, particularly 'Ben' who made a great effort to engage with the children and talk to them. The complimentary Pokémon cards given to the children were a nice touch as well! 10/10 service! Thank you."
