Anyone else tried any of their restaurants ?

I’m assuming you’re going up to the retail park one SW ?.

Been there a few times, mainly as they accept the Meerkat two for one deal (makes quite a difference over time) and always found it nice enough. It’s just a shame the outside bit looks over a car park and McDonald’s.

I used to work for a company who were in partnership with the Restaurant Group who own Frankie and Bennies. I have been to health and safety, fire safety and food hygiene meetings, where they all use F&B’s as the prime example of how not to do things. So no I have not eaten in their restaurants and probably never will.

It was BB bit of a walk for us (we are off Doncaster road), on a run of trying a few different places.
I had the sirloin steak while Cathy did the nashville chicken salad. Bottle of Merlot.
We have a gourmet society card that gets us 25% off including the wine.
