to wonder why the hell someone would CHOOSE to go out for dinner at Frankie & Bennies

[GetOrfMoiLand]

It has got to be the worst restaurant on earth.

And it's not even cheap.

Vile food, and every 20 mins the lights dim and 'happy birthday' gets sung out the loudspeakers.

It's up there with Harvester and Bella Pasta in my opinion.

YANBU it is a totally scary place and expensive for what its worth!

Never been

Won't be heading there either

Dp and dd2 really like F&B's - I can't stand it. So if dd1 and I go to London, dp and dd2 stay here and go to F&B's - weirdos.

Never been. Whats wrong with bella pasta? I havent been in one of them r years.

Everything that place sells is based around the same tomato puree stuff. The tomato soup is just the same stuff as the pizza sauce/bolognese sauce. It's only redeeming feature is the cheesecake, because they have yet to find a way of using the tomato puree stuff as a coulis.

I like it and think the puddings are nice too! So there.

The hot wings are the only good thing about the place.

HOT WINGS.

Everthing else is shite.

I like it too. Club sandwich and fries - mmm.

Oops. My bb is misbehaving.

I think it's v expensive for what it is - would far rather go for a curry. And the menu is crap for veggies.

It is expensive for a pile of crap. £14 for a inedible steak? No thanks.

We HAD to go there a couple of months ago as SIL thinks it is the bees knees. Was sat there festering at the vileness of it.

Funny, I can't stand Harvester and Bella Pasta but our local F&B is not bad! Granted, I wouldn't go in there without kids, but both DC love it so we go occasionally.

The staff are usually pleasant and if you stick with the basics (thin crust pizza), it's not bad at all!

Mind you TGI friday's also expensive for the food and some others so...........

Love it when you go to one of these places and the waiter/waitress says - how would you like your burger. They only really offer cremated!

agh, just read you had a steak.!!! oh no, no, no. You can't go doing that in a place like Frankie and Benny's.

Ah leave the harvester alone, it may be crap but at least it's cheap.

withorwithoutyou, everyone has their line-in-the-sand. Mine is the Harvester!

Because they have babies and have to stay away from 'Super-Swanky Restaurants'

TooPragmatic - mine is Wacky Warehouse without a doubt

Oh god no I didn't have the steak (DD did and it looked vile).

I had a boring caesar salad, and boring it was too.

It was so damn noisy. Bloody bastard birthdays.

The Harvester is just shocking.
