Frankie & Benny's

 
Description: Chain of New York Italian restaurants and Bars.

Newest Review: ... the speakers and the staff take over balloons and a cake for the birthday boy/girl. This happened three times on Saturday and (as is usual with my friends), every time one of them said, 'Oh guys, you shouldn't have!'. Oh, what wits... The lighting is always fairly low in the York F&B and there are ceiling fans which always seem to be on, no matter what the weather. I was cold but to be ... more

 ... honest, I usually am. They also play Italian language tapes in the toilet area, with key phrases such as 'Two tickets please' or 'Good evening', which is a nice touch. The toilets were clean and tidy. The only issue I had is that the toilet seat was on...more

Premium Review Frankie & Benny's: A tasty way to spend the evening! (995 words)

I visited Frankie & Benny's restaurant (the one at Clifton Moor, near York) as it was near to the cinema that we were visiting later on in the evening. It's one I've been to a few times before and I'm used to a wait on a Saturday night, especially as there were six of us. However, it being the closest Saturday to Bonfire Night, it seemed that people were either stood wet, cold and shivering round a bonfire or at home calming their pets down due to the fireworks. Anyway, we were seated almost as soon as we walked in. Frankie & Benny's is an Italian-American restaurant chain and the restaurants are dotted about the UK, usually in a retail park or near a ...  Read the complete review

Frankie & Benny's: Pretentious and un-American welcome (150 words)

I tried to get breakfast at Frankie and Benny's in Terminal 2 , Manchester Airport. The restaurant wasn't busy but the Greeter was not at the front desk.Eventually she seated the family of 5 in front of me but When it was my my turn I was told I had a 20 minute wait.I was stunned and said I wouldn't wait.You can't say that to people in airports! As I hovered in shock I was disgusted to see that a family who wre behind me were immediately seated. So it is obvious that my likely spend of £10 or less was dropped in favour of a better financial gain from a larger party. In that sense it is nothing like an American style eatery as the Greeters and Servers in American ...  Read the complete review

A few weeks ago me and some girl friends decided to go out for a bite to eat on a sturday evening, before hitting the local town for a few drinks. We decided to try frankie and bennys as this is a fairly new restaurant to our town. Some of the other girls had been to other frankie and benny restaurants before but i was new to this whole restaurant experience. The decor As soon as i walked in i thought it looked really cool it is in the style of an american diner and has booths rather than tables and chairs it reminded me of the american restaurant in pulp fiction. All the walls were decorated with american memrobilia. continuing to create the american dining ...  Read the complete review

I visit Frankie and Benny's restaurant a couple of times a year as it is near a few of the cinemas I visit and it is good for a pre cinema meal, rather than a make a night of it night out meal! Frankie and Benny's is an American / Italian style diner which sells a wide variety of food, and seems to have something for everyone. It sells lots of pizza and pasta dishes, burgers, salads etc. The pizzas are very thin but very big and come out on a large dish. The food is of a reasonable quality, the same that you expect in a fast food style restaurant, not amazing, but reasonable and standard. The atmosphere in Frankie and Bennies is good, they play old ...  Read the complete review
