"My son took me for dinner here tonight and the food was excellent. I usually suffer from indigestion if I eat pizza as it's usually greasy, but this was light, crispy and really tasty. I also had a pecan pie cheesecake which was delicious. Our waiter, Jamie, was friendly, chatty and very attentive....he definitely deserves praise, as I will certainly return if his service is anything to go by. I hope he gets acknowledged for his excellent service, he certainly earned it. Thanks for a great evening."

"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"

"I am a great fan of frankie and Benny’s, eating is generally always consistent and really quite delicious! I can say confidently that I have tried at least 1/3 of the menu and it is all really delicious! No matter what they choose, they will almost always get a really delicious meal! during the week they have in the rule a promotion for two courses and I recommend that for a cheaper meal, as a single meal can cost the same as the price the meal deal itself! this special industry is really beautiful and the staff is super friendly! I've never had a problem with eating. if they are on the royal mile, they should consider that this particular facility can be quite busy, so please note that in the head."

"Came here last week with my husband for a treat! Staff were attentive, customer service was second to none despite it being very busy. We were served by a lovely girl called Lizzie? Greeted with a lovely smile, gave us just the right time to chose, drinks out quickly and didn't feel rushed one bit! We said what a hard working team they were looked like they gelled well together, enjoying their shift! Great customer service is hard to come by these days so felt it worthy of note!!! Food was hot fresh and cocktails were delicious too! Well done F&Bs Shrewsbury! X"

"The meal was highly overpriced for what we received. The food wasn't even that good; the portion sizes were more suited for a child than an adult. I ordered a piña colada while I drove, and it was tiny for £6. I felt completely ripped off. Overall, I was very disappointed. "

"My partner and I visited Frankie and Benny’s, The Derwen Designer Outlet Village, Bridgend for lunch during a shopping trip. We were greeted promptly and shown to a table but we asked if we could be sat near a window which was fine. We ordered drinks my partner had a Diet Coke and I ordered a glass of Peroni which didn’t look or taste like Peroni? My partner had lasagne which was satisfactory but lacked any real meat content and I had the hot dog with fries which I enjoyed. The food is basically pub grub at probably the going rate and filled a little hole until we could get home for tea. We wouldn’t rush back to any Frankie and Benny’s again and were disappointed on the amount of quality eateries available at the Village Outlet."
"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."

"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."
"Not a fan. The food here is bland and unimaginative. We used to eat here while waiting for films to start. Never really liked it, but they used to have a bacon and avocado salad that was ok. That's gone now. The atmosphere is loud and chaotic, they play this horrible song whenever it's someone's birthday. This wouldn't be that bad except everyone brings their kids there for birthdays, so the song blares out every half an hour or so. It's mind numbing. They appear to be aiming for Italian American themed food, but are falling desperately short. Maybe had Chef Boyardee opened a chain restaurant, this is what it would be. In short, if you like the food at Chuck E Cheese, but are put off by animatronics, this place is for you."

"I am a frequent visitor to Frankie and Benny's in Newcastle, going to this branch a little less frequently than the brnach at the Gate, which is in a far better location near the cinema. This branch feels a little smaller and less private inside, with big glass windows overlooking a busy street.This restaurant chain is classically Italian in flavour, playing non stop easy listening style songs, lots of Sinatra too, as you eat. the decor is done very well, with murals depicting the history of the restaurant's owners.The menu is typical Italian with a personal edge, dishes like Mama's cheese bake' and New York cheesecake' spring to mind. It is done in an attempt to transport you into a different time and place. The food is always tasty and wholesome. Pizzas have a fresh vegetable base, no fake cheese or pizza sauce here. Dishes are always well cooked and done to personal specification.This branch always provides less in portion to the one at the Gate, for some reason, but this is my only complaint. The staff here are friendly, student hip-hop types who are quick to serve, happy and talkative. Great menu for kids and adults alike. Prices are reasonable but a little higher than similar pizza outlets, but worth it for the environment you eat in."

"The prices at this restaurant are on the higher side, but I had a discount voucher. Honestly, I would be happy to pay full price to dine here, although it would have to be a special occasion rather than a regular outing. My burger was fantastic, and the children's meal was equally delicious, with a wide variety of options for kids—definitely the most extensive selection I've seen, including vegan pizza, which is rarely available for children. It was quite busy, and at times the service felt a bit slow, but it wasn't off-putting. The server appeared somewhat serious at first, but was actually very friendly and accommodating, and the bartender whipped up some amazing gin cocktails. Overall, the dishes were beautiful, with plenty of choices for both adults and kids, great drinks, and attentive staff. It's definitely worth a visit! Just be prepared for a bit of noise, as the acoustics in the building could use some improvement."

"Myself and my partner ate at Frankies in Cramlington last week. From when we got there to when we left we were looked after by a young lady called Lauren. She showed us to our seats which were right in the window and asked if...we would like drinks straight away or she could come back which was nice. After looking at the menu for a few minutes Lauren came to take our order and all questions we had were answered very well. When the food arrived it was served nice and tasted great. After we had finished our food our plates were taken away and we were asked if everything was ok with our meals. We particularly liked this as I don’t like to be bothered during my meal. If it wasn’t nice, then we would inform staff. Lauren returned to our table to ask if we wanted anything more. We paid the bill and left a bigger tip than usual because of the great service."

"We hosted my daughter's 5th birthday party here over the weekend, and it was a pizza-themed event. It couldn't have gone better! The organization and planning were excellent, and the service was outstanding with great attention to our group. A huge thank you to Anne May for making it all happen. The children had a wonderful time, and I would certainly recommend this place!"

"After a fantastic afternoon and evening spent with friends at the Hanover Tap Edinburgh our group of 14 were eventually left with just 4 of us. We tried to buy another drink to say goodbye to each other but the young lady behind the bar refused to serve us. I asked her why and she said that we were all drunk. I asked if one of us had misbehaved or acted out of order she said no but that as we had been there several hours we must be drunk and she would not serve us. We are all in our late 50’s our conduct at the pub was exemplary but she still wouldn’t serve us. As a group we had spent in excess of £1000 on food and drinks but she was having none of it. Shame to end a fantastic day that way. The young manager should rethink how she treats good customers. We as a group will not be returning to the Hanover Tap Edinburgh"

"I was disappointed that I had made a reservation online and received confirmation, but when we arrived at the restaurant, they could not find any record of it. However, they managed to find a table for us and the service was good. However, when our server was bringing us the bill, he was interrupted by someone who I believe was the manager. Despite explaining that he was busy, he was made to clean another table while the manager waited to set it. As a result, we had to wait longer to receive our bill. When our server finally brought it to us, he was embarrassed and apologized, asking if the manager was right to make him deal with the vacant table before bringing our bill. We expressed that we felt the manager was in the wrong. This was disappointing and it overshadowed our dining experience.incerely, Ian Williams"
"I like Frankie and Benny's and have eaten their many times but this was not one of the best. firstly your website said it was fully booked and I only got a table on open table, when we got to the restaurant it was empty, but my main complaint was that my clazone pizza was not cooked properly, the cheese which made up the bulk of the filling was not melted, in fact it still looked like grated cheese. Not once was I asked how the meal was which you normally ask so many times that is gets boring however on this occasion I actually wanted to say something. luckily as cheese and all the meats could be eaten cold there was no problem eating an under cooked clazone pizza"

"I really enjoy this quaint and charming old-fashioned restaurant. The food is always delicious and the staff is very helpful, although sometimes a bit slow. It is worth the wait, especially for their fantastic breakfast special once a week."
