Food is decent enough but it's expensive for what you get there, the drinks are also a bit on the pricey side.

The food costs about 20 pounds and don't even fill you up while it's just so uncomfortable sitting on ripped leather seats

When the waitress, Lorraine, came to the table she asked straight away if anyone had allergies and gave me a gluten free menu. I had Carbonara and Brownies both of which were very nice. Lorraine was very friendly and funny which we enjoyed.

Visited for breakfast and received a prompt welcome. Was seated quickly and given the breakfast menu. After a short time our drink and food order was taken...one full breakfast and one sausage and bacon omelette with a cappuccino and a Diet Coke. Drinks came fairly quickly with food following shortly after. Both plates looked appetising and tasted just as delicious. The bill came to under £20...excellent value...will definitely be returning again!

Our server seated us and abruptly asked if we had any allergies. We ordered and the food was absolutely delicious! We got asked once by our server if everything was okay with the food and once again by a lady who appeared to be senior staff. The five minutes of conversation with the senior member of staff topped the whole night of service with our other server. Once we had finished our food the lady who served then asked if we were “wasting” our food. She cleared our plates and we did not see her the rest of the evening. We were sat waiting for an extra 20 minutes/ half an hour for our bill but got so fed up of waiting we decided to pay on the app and leave. At this point the lady who served us most definitely had not noticed we were leaving and for all she knew we could have walked out without paying. Leaving the restaurant minus £40. Such a shame about the level of service as the food was amazing. It was a shame we couldn’t tip the chefs.

I personally don't usually write reviews but after my experience here I really felt the need to. I ordered a burger, said no mayo and there was a choice to add onion ring onto the burger so I did. My partner ordered pasta with prawns and we waited for the food, which didn't take long to come out. On my burger there was EXTRA mayo as well as a pot of extra mayo!! Also they bought out a side order of onion rings which was more expensive than ordering them on the burger. At this point I was close to complaining but for the sake of it just dealt with it and continued to eat. My partner (who is a chef himself) bit into a prawn only to find it wasn't cooked all the way through!! At this point we sent his meal back and ge had a different dish which came out fine. We then had to wait about half an hour before seeing another member of staff to ask for the bill. Dreadful meal, poor service and shocking that no staff were available for half an hour. Never Again!

We are writing this review as a couple who have both worked in the food industry. So the trip started with my boyfriend and I being led to our table by a sever who communicated with us very little. After waiting a few minutes the server returned to ask for our drinks order and then returned a few minutes later with said drinks. After looking at the menu for around 10 minutes (during this time the server had started to serve another couple who had come in after us), who seemed to be the ‘manager’ came up to take our order. We intended to order a starter of cheesy garlic pizza bread, a carbonara and a pizza to be followed with a slight mumble of ‘we have no garlic bread or pizza.’ This came as a shock to my boyfriend especially, as surely they specialise in pizza ??? After settling for 2 Carbonaras and NO starters we waited around 5 minutes to then be told that they also had no carbonaras. At this point my boyfriend and I are getting a bit annoyed and are wondering what exactly they do have because it seems to be very little in the way of food. The ‘manager’ kindly offered us to look at the menu again to which we politely declined as there was no food ??? and she continued with an apology and for our drinks to be on the house. After a quick discussion with my boyfriend we decided after our delightful half hour trip to Frankie and Benney’s we would rather go somewhere with food available on arrival. All in all, we feel that this issue could have been resolved by the server actually stating before we ordered our drinks, the food that they didn’t have - however thinking about it, it probably would have been easier telling us what they did have.

Waiting roughly 10-15 minutes to actually get served and order food. Once ordered took another 20-30 minutes for starter to arrive then followed by our mains. Partner ordered Viva La Vegan burger and was convinced it was the wrong patty in the burger. Ask very nicely If it was correct and they assured us it was right. My partner didn’t like or enjoy the bite of the patty and requested the Beetroot patty option and the employer stated that it was our fault that the patty’s were mixed up. Also she was shouting at one of her employee in front of people. Extremely unprofessional! Attitude was horrendous and I will not be returning as this is the second time we’ve been here and had issues.

Food was absolutely disgusting. Chips came out half cooked covered in undercooked bacon. The burger was soaked full of grease and a total rip off. My partner ordered off the cheaper lunch menu and I ordered a double cheese burger with cheese and bacon fries from the main menu, costing £25! Both meals extremely poor. The duty managers appearance was as bad as the food - some would say he’s in need of a short back and sides, shower and clean clothes. We will never visit F&B again.

Went for lunch yesterday with a friend who had never been to a F&B’s before, I have raved about all my other visits but never visited this branch & never will again.Every other restaurant has a great atmosphere no matter if busy or quiet, the music is great, it’s cosy, the food hot & tasty. This place was cold, you couldn’t hear the music. We chose off the lunch specials menu. My tomato & mozzarella salad would have disappointed me as a garnish! The rocket was wilted & the ‘torn’ mozzarella was practically absent. We both followed with a steak wrap, which was mostly gristle. When I tried to find the wait staff to pay the bill, they were as hard to find as the mozzarella. My friend has been poorly ever since.This won’t stop me visiting other branches, but if this one closed it wouldn’t be a shock! Toilets were clean though

Booked a table for 2 adults and 1 13yr old for lunchtime, past experience of this place told me I thought I'd better had, but there was no problem getting a table anyway. Drinks order was taken efficiently. Then we ordered starters and a main, starters came out quick, had to wait a bit for main. We ordered from the lunch menu, basic hotdog, wraps. Very tasty wraps, but my chips were not hot enough, small coleslaw on the side, would have looked more appealing with perhaps a bit more greenery on the side? All, in all pleasant waiting staff and much better than our previous visits.

From ringing on 11 July to book a table for that night stating we were going to use Meercat meals to enjoying our meal service by Bethan . Nothing was too much trouble despite the fact the whole thing drinks included were half price we were treated no different to any other table which in some places if you are going to use such a code it's like meh they aren't paying full price so service represents this . We did however need to wait about 30 mins for our good but it was 8 pm and very busy we were celebrating our wedding Anniversary so we're enjoying a very rare treat of being out alone so didn't mind waiting Saying that we were apologized to for the wait and checked on several times .

Hubby had an Hawaiian pizza, which had very little topping and I had the spaghetti in garlic and tomato, which was tasty but a very tiny portion. Luckily hubby didn't eat the crusts off his pizza so I ate those! We thought it was expensive for what we had. I doubt if we will call there again when there is a very nice Beefeater just a little further along.

The waitress did not look very happy at all and could not even break a smile. We sat ourselves at a table, she came to take our drinks order then returned to take the food order - still no smile ! The food arrived in due course, we were asked if we would like Parmesan cheese, she returned with the grater and had difficulty administering the said Parmesan. The food was to say the least mediocre we were only asked if it was all ok when we requested the bill. 2 Starters 4 main courses and 4 soft drinks £76.00 I always leave a tip (being in the same trade) but on this occasion I did not and will not be returning

Waited over an hour for starter on a quiet day, only then to watch one of our main meals sitting on the serving desk while the other was being made for over 10 mins, staff seemed surprised when we complained the food was cold, they said it was fresh, we said we know we watched it sitting on the counter for ten mins while you all walked past it!! Of course it bloody cold. Offered to reheat the food, we kindly declined and said we’ll have the bill please, I don’t pay for food to be “reheated” if I wanted a microwave meal I’d stay at home. Bill came, and all food still on the bill, paid for what we ate which was starter and two drinks. No apology, no compliment voucher, a free drink, nothing! I’ll keep my hard earned money and be spending it elsewhere.

Early evening meal out ( 5 30) and so the restaurant was not busy . We got served drinks and our order was taken quickly and the food we had was good . However , the food portions were small for what we were charged and two teenagers girls were not satisfied with the quantity and were left wanting more . No one asked if the food was ok and when we finished It felt as if the staff just blanked us and it took far too long to get anyone to clear our plates. We had the dessert menu but again had a very lengthy weight before being served again.The service was the worse we had experienced, it left us really disappointed and put us off eating there again . It honestly made us feel like we were invisible , especially as staff did look over and the just walked passed or avoided eye contact .

My girlfriend and I often come to F&B midweek when we have the Meerkats offer (yes we're cheapskates). The food is good, however, it is difficult to justify the full price on meals without the 2-for-1. Brandie, the waitress is lovely, seats you, takes your order of drinks, food, asks if everything's okay mid-meal and leaves you alone. Many of the F&B staff, particularly in Swansea and Cardiff lurk around you, making awful jokes in attempts to woo for a tip. Brandie even declines the gratitude on the card paying machine, a top waitress - and good chefs, just sometimes pricey.

Have been here a few times now. In all honesty there is always an issue. From the moment we arrived (Mother’s Day) I knew there was an issue.The guy that greeted us didn’t know what was going on. I’d pre-booked but he didn’t seem bothered. We were seated in the nearest empty booth. We were then basically invisible for the next hour.No-one cane to take our food order (I had to ask someone if we could order). No-one asked if we wanted more drinks. I had to collar someone to order an ice cream for my son.No-one took any responsibility for us. Was just up to us to collar someone. Main course arrived an hour after we arrived. Were given free drinks.To top it off the bill wasn’t right, overcharged by a tenner. Waitress said it had been happening all day?!? (there was a Mother’s Day promotion on which wasn’t being reflected in the bills). This has been a issue before with other offers/promotions.It’s a shame as I like the food and the staff are friendly, albeit not as efficient as they should be.Got to the point where I’ll be reluctant to return anytime soon. Shame.

Very tasty breakfast. Easy to swap items that we didn't like for alternatives. Brandie was on the ball for refills of coffee and very friendly.

Don't visit very often due to the expense but the service by Jade was brilliant and the food was spot on. Will definitely re-visit again sometime.

Waitress Loraine was really attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The Assistant Manager Lel was really helpful and kind, we asked for something specific which wasn’t part of the menu and he made sure we had it.The food was absolutely lovely, fresh and came out without too much of a wait.I will certainly return with my family.

Only went because I was sent a load of vouchers by frankie and bennys via e-mail, starters were lovely, but the main meal was such a let down, I ordered a bacon and cheese burger. The bun was freezing, don’t know if it’s supposed to be hot or cold but it was as if it had just come stright from the fridge, the burger had started to go hard, it was warm but had obviously been standing a while so that was a let down. On a positive, The cheese and bacon fried were actually quite nice!

DISGUSTING food, 4 out of 5 meals sent back twice. 3 spaghetti bolognese sent back stone cold, heated in microwave and came back for the second time barely any warmer. Chicken was dried out and burnt. Complementary ‘hot’ chocolate cake also arrived barely warm. Another customer sent food back twice and left like us ... starving!! Shocking food

Decided to give it another go after the last disaster visit and I’m glad I did . It was completely different ! The garlic bread for starter was lovely , the burger I had for main was delicious and juicy . Staff were friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was completely different . Whatever they have changed since last September (chefs , staff etc.) was a good choice because it’s a complete 180 turn fromMy visit last year . Will return based on this visit .

A group of us met at this restaurant last Monday before going to the cinema. The waitress Brandie, was very friendly and helpful. The food arrived quickly and was tasty. It was good value, but partly as our friends have a gourmet card so we got a 50% discount!

A couple of friends and I enjoyed a lovely meal. Very quick service and really enjoyed the food. Our server Lorraine was excellent. Could tell she was very caring and nothing was too much bother. Put up with us changing our minds more than once. Will return.

Me and my girlfriend just wanted somewhere to quick to get some dinner together as we don’t have a lot of time during the day to meet up. Frankie & Benny’s in Llanelli is clean, has good food and our waitress (Jane) was very friendly and very helpful.

Called for a family birthday party. Although we were a large family they really couldn’t cope . An hour for food is not acceptable . The staff were pleasant but not knowledgable or organised . Couldn’t manage the organisation of vouchers . The food is poor value even with the voucher i thought , mostly overcooked and small portions . Drinks as always overpriced . The best thing the staff joined in on happy birthday !

What a shambles seemed like only one person working until we ordered our food and drinks. This was after waiting 25 mins. Should have left there and then. After I ate my average meal which I paid £17.50 for the next day I woke up with food poisioning and can’t work. I’ve never been so sick in my life and still suffering. I won’t ever be returning that’s for sure. Shame because Frankie and bennies used to be good. Never again.

Had a late lunch here last week it was about 3pm and there were only 2 tables occupied, we were shown to our table quickly by a friendly waitress and our drinks arrived in a timely manner. We chose our meals and our starters arrived fairly quickly. We had the chicken in breadcrumbs which came with a barbecue sauce, they were delicious. I had chosen the sirloin steak and my partner had the half chicken and ribs. Both plates of food really nice and cooked to perfection. However, the wait was well over 50 minutes, bearing in mind that there were only only two tables before us was not really acceptable. There were two chefs on duty in the kitchen so no there should have been no staffing issues. Our desserts arrived in about 15 minutes after ordering, again on the slow side, but acceptable. Would have given it a five star if the main course had been served in a timely manner. Can,t fault the cleanliness and quality of food served. The waiting staff were superb. So all in all had a nice time.

Lovely food and the whole experience was fantastic. Wonderful service from Brandie, nothing was too much trouble for her. However more staff would have made the experience even better as Brandie was run off her feet and the restaurant was a little cold.

Nice food here, good portions, service but slow the both times we’ve been, recommend the chilli dogs with loaded fries, expensive compared to local pubs in the area but as I said the food is nice.

On arrival we sat at the bar to wait for a drink.. no one was serving. Not many staff working, not many people there either. After 15 mins waiting and not being acknowledged at all,my friend approached a lady and asked politely if anyone was serving at the bar. She replied “no”.. anyway the lady came to the bar.. making drinking for other people which is fine but still blanked us!! That was the point we left.. worst customer service ever. Not even “ hi I’ll be with you as soon as I can” that would have done... but total blanked for the whole time we were there!!! Roughly 25mins of our lives we won’t get back! Awful! Never going there again. Went over to the Sessile Oak for a drink and was instantly greeted as we walked through the door with “ hi, how are you? What can I get you?” What a difference in two places.

Visited for my birthday as a surprise from my wife. The waiter Costa was so attentive and friendly from start to finish. He and Alex (the chef) were fantastic. The food was amazing, the service was amazing. They couldn’t do enough for us and I’d highly recommended. If you want authentic Italian food, you can’t get any better.

Stopped here for Breakfast early one Saturday morning. English breakfast and pancakes with fresh fruit, local honey and Greek yoghurt. Pot of tea for two. Less than £20! Lovely sunny patio, good service and quality food. The menu was varied! Would return and recommend. Only negative is the outdoor furniture was a little unstable.
