Simple ameritalian food, ideal for a pre cinema bite or drink. Proper burgers or simple pasta & pizza dishes fill the menu so it’s good for the kids too. Service is sometimes a little slow but staff are quite friendly.

Frankie and Benny’s certainly has its merits, especially if you have young children. It’s like an Italian version of TGI’s, and although I’m sure this smaller chain wouldn’t like to be compared to the corporate giant it’s hard not to see the similarities. They both cater to groups and families, they both create a restaurant ‘experience’ with games for the chidren, merchandise as well as party bookings. Despite receiving the recent accolade of ‘Best Italian Restaurant Chain 2009′ at the PAPA Awards(Pizza and Pasta Awards), I’m not entirely sure it would make my shortlist. I’m not saying that the food is particularly bad; the pizzas have a thin base and the toppings are generous, the burgers are huge and stacked with fresh ingredients. But to me it just isn’t somewhere I would come if I wasn’t with children who need entertaining! I’m sorry.
