Frankie & Benny's in Birmingham

Always a pleasure coming here with friends or children

Came in for brunch with a 40% off voucher. Anais served us as she has done the last few times and as usual, was very friendly and attentive. Food was of good quality and well presented, unfortunately the place was lacking an atmosphere but we appreciate it was a Monday lunchtime. Not sure we'd pay full price as without the 40% off it would have cost 70 odd quid for the three of us but otherwise it was good value for money. Overall we had good service, thanks to Anais

It's always amazing when we are there! Friendly staff who were quick to take out orders and service was excellent! As usual we will be back soon

Good food, we had the Calzones, good service for the staff here and easy to get parked by the restaurant and get free parking.

Bangin, double bacon cheeseburger

Came in for a rapid pre cinema pizza, For a chain restaurant it was reasonably decent, the margarita better than the meat feast, I feel it just lacked authentic ingredients and uses frozen bases. I'd guess. The malbec was fantastic and the service was perfect

It was great from start to finish! Our server was so friendly and helpful. The food was amazing and well worth the price. The atmosphere was great. We’ll definitely be back.

Exit door was open a lot for the delivery drives. I spent most evening cold with my coat on. Food was ok.

We arrived for lunch ,it was early and obviously quiet,the staff were polite and friendly,the only downside was having to wait a long time between courses even when it was quiet I would imagine the wait would be far longer later in the day

A great meal, service brilliant as always at this restaurant, the servers are always attentive and professional and give you a warm welcome.

Great service, great choice on the menu, lovely atmosphere and family friendly.

Just had an excellent meal there with my wife, loved the experience!

Great night out for a friends birthday, service, food and atmosphere was great !!

Service was quick and tables cleared promptly. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Love the food. Same there closed the one in Kidderminster they I come from

Came here a few nights ago after bowling, was rushed to order food as the chefs wanted to go home, but the lad with glasses that seated us was very friendly, unfortunately I didn't catch his name.

The food is as good as you get for these types of restaurants. It's nice and you'll enjoy it, but its not memorable. However the staff were really nice and friendly. And the music was nice. Place was clean etc

Took nearly 70mins for delivery. Was longer than expected

Food was incredible! Amy was very welcoming and polite. Would definitely be going again

Great service from Rachel thank you!

Staff great but fewer vegan dishes than my last visit and just ice cream for vegan dessert. Disappointing.

Many thanks to Annette and Kiran for the excellent service

Food was cold and tasted awful. Won’t be ordering again

Ellie was fantastic and the food was great, service was so good and she is very friendly. 🙂🙂

My fav place for gluten free, have a menu on the back of a standard one

It has been a while since visiting Frankie & Benny's and wanted to take advantage of the cinema deal with 30% off. Firstly, the waitress Ellie who took care of us during our visit went above and beyond and she is a real credit to the restaurant. I could not fault the service from Ellie at all, which was brilliant with no issues. I remember it used to be a lot busier here and can see why it has lost its appeal in today’s cost of living crisis. The menu options have decreased quite a lot and unfortunately so has the quality. Most of the food is just reheated, no different to what you would get in Weatherspoon’s these days, however they continue to charge high prices. I can see why they have brought in the cinema offer but it’s just not going to cut it in the long run. It has been a slow decline for Frankie & Benny's, I cannot see them competing with the likes of Hickory's which is a similar price but much better quality and freshness. The meal I had was nice, but it was just simple items like chips, chicken wings and ribs and the price was £30 just for that! I would never pay that full price without the discount as I could have gotten it all from Aldi for just under a tenner. I hope Frankie & Benny's find a way to stay relevant but I wouldn't be returning in a hurry as it currently stands.

Perfect service, delicious food and reasonable prices! very pleasant environment

Amdil was very friendly and gave us time to choose our food before coming over

We had really lovely food and the restaurant was decorated nicely for Christmas. The atmosphere was good even though it wasn't super busy. What made it really special was our server Ellie who managed to be really helpful and friendly and attentive without being overbearing and she was so good. Honestly she was an absolute star ⭐

Great experience and little one loved it 🥰

Food .... Pasta was awful, watery and obviously heated up. Maybe from frozen. Pizza tasted like it was frozen and had a taste of plastic. Chicken burger was apparently ok but a bit slimy. Chips cold. Took a whole 10 mins to cook all this btw. Top dollar prices for the type of restaurant too. Won't be back. I'd rather go to maccys and that's saying something.

If you're ordering from Uber Eats avoid this place. I ordered £40 worth of food and it was dissapointing, the pasta dishes I ordered were bland (unseasoned) and the ratio of the actual filling to pasta is ridiculous. Not to mention I ordered 6 Sticky BBQ chicken wings and only recieved 5 of them. Seems to me as, if you order online this restaurant puts minimal effort into the service and gets lazy. Can't comment on the restaurant as a whole though as I've been there before as a child (over 10 years ago) and the food was decent back then (hence why they haven't got 1 star despite this awful experience). It's honestly a shame.

Fantastic food and service, the restaurant was busy with a large number of guest and the servers were brilliant and pleasant

I always pass by Frankie & Benny's on my way to join the bus home.

I waited 35 minutes for a drink and there was only 15 people in there

Dinner and show was amazing as waitress handled are rude and disrespectful customer as a professional well down had a great time.

always great food here at a reasonable price. Never had a bad experience, the staff are very welcoming and tentative.

I had not been frankie & bennies in a long time. The atmosphere when they play Happy Birthday and you see a child's face lights up and their cake comes out. But yes big but , food terrible, I would suggest they get a new cook because they are no chef. Cocktails are good. Food was dry and luke warm and overcooked. Pasta no flavour. Just really sad, that place was below par. Might be okay someday, but today was not one of those. Service was great, the girl serving lovely.

Great food... 2 for 1 cocktails 5 till 7.. great service .. will definitely visit again

The staff were friendly and courteous. Our food came quickly and it was delicious.

We visit here regularly as we only live down the road. The service is always great and we've never had any problems with the food. Pretty quiet during the week but can get busy over the weekends.

really tasty food (garlic bread with mozzarella 😋), and it was a meal deal so the price was fab. not sure about the service charge ... I'll always happily pay a tip for good service but this was home delivery 🤔

We went in the day on a Sunday 11th aug 2024 for my daughter’s birthday, we were met with a lovely Kate moss looking waitress called Courtney, she seemed very stretched with the amount of service she was having to do on her own but done everything timely, efficiently and exactly as we wanted. I’m an awkward sod as I’m on keto and Courtney made sure the chefs done everything I asked taking my dietary requirements in to consideration. She asked twice whether anyone had allergies ( to be sure to be sure) and when it came to bringing out my daughters cake went all out with the music and even danced for us. An absolutely amazing waitress Courtney was for us today and we are so happy with our visit to frankie and bennys for my daughters birthday. The food all came in a timely manner, and all really well orchestrated with my keto diet requirements carried out in full. The bill: for 6 of us to eat , drinks , puddings for the kids 78quid. Not bad at all for all 6 of us to go away full and happy. Overall a good review. Well done to all at Frankie and Bennys rubery

would be 5 starts because of Sean, he’s so nice and the reason I would return! I hope someone higher up sees this because he’s so nice had a laugh , i’ve been here multiple times and have had issues before with a previous server called ellie, we ordered cheesy garlic bread and she slammed the plate on the table, but it isn’t a major deal and moved on but it is nice here and good servers in general especially Aimee been here before and she’s nice and had a laugh

Apologies the review I sent was for a different venue

Lovely food, great service. Thank you, Courtney.

Had a decent meal but Courtney was brilliant. Really kind and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Also brilliant with a 4 year old boy. Best restaurant service ever experienced (I’m 38!)

Fries were missing and there is nowhere on here to let the restaurant know.

Amazing wellcome, friendly atmosphere shout out to Sophie my server today who went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied and a shout out to shawty(chef) for the amazing food! Will deffo be back x

Fantastic! The food was amazing and the staff were very friendly and attentive even though it was a busy Friday night at peak time. I definitely recommend and would love to visit again 🙂

Really enjoyed the food, there was a slight mix up with delivery as your sat nav kept taking the driver to a different address but he was very courteous and got to us only a couple of minutes later. Will be ordering again.

Been here a few times and never been disappointed! Great food, friendly and helpful staff, and a nice atmosphere. Always clean and tidy. Free parking too.

Way too much bbq sauce on chicken wings ! Had to scrape it off

Worst experience in a restaurant in all my life . Staff were rude from moment we walked in , got our drinks and starters took 45 minutes and then another 45 minutes wait for our main . Starters were awful no flavour and overcooked . Mains didn’t come as ordered and when questioned they tried to take it off our bill rather than replace . Undercooked chicken on our mains made us sick . Sarcastic gestures from staff as we left to make things even worse . Will NEVER be coming back again , stay away from this place . 13.05.2024

Food was OK, but service was slow and we saw several people complain about incorrect orders, late food, and drinks not arriving

Friendly staff, but food uninspiring. Calzone extremely large but bland. Putting meatballs and a bolognese type sauce in a calzone does not work.

Was there yesterday, and not gonna lie the staff girl made me the most tasty espresso martini which i have ever had in a whole West Midlands. Idk ur name girl, but you made my day better!

Amazing service from Aimee. We've been coming to F&B for many years and she always gives great service with a lively smile

Great service food was great thanks guys

Sophie was an amazing host. Food was excellent. Definitely coming back regularly.

Nice and polite people, a bit pricey for the portion sizes hence 4stars. Tasty though and impressed they do a Cadbury s Crunchie shake.

Service was good, welcome was strained taken to table with another couple which souldnt have happened. Music very loud, lighting very bright, pizza garlic bread very thin and meagre, food good and staff friendly but slow service.

Fantastic really enjoyed my meal came nice and hot

Awful food - the Mac & cheese was cheeseless and barely anything in the box for £12 - the pizza also had barely any cheese on it either - will not be eating from here again that’s twice I’ve had awful deliveries

We had an amazing experience tonight for our Mother’s Day meal. Sean 10000% made our experience tonight! Thankyou!

Food arrived super quickly despite being told 30 minute wait. All enjoy the food.

We were served by a lovely waitress, she was very friendly and attentive. We ordered our food and were served quickly! I had the vegan pepperoni pizza which was delicious 10/10 and the atmosphere and music made a great experience. Thank you very much I’ll be visiting again soon!

I had a lovely meal today and it really made my Valentine’s Day very enjoyable. I had a wonderful waitress, Ellie was the one serving us today and she was great and we received amazing service. Loved it !!

Super place to share a celebration with the family. Cheap and cheerful with smiley staff. Good vegan choices.

Haven’t been since I was a kid . Was gob smacked place was immaculate . Food was great . Lovely service and all around great vibe

The food was horrendous, only come if you have lost your tastebuds.

Fab meal here. Food was fabulous and our server Fran was fantastic!

Met with friends for a catch up. The food was lovely with alot to chose from. Service was excellent with attentive, friendly staff

We usually make a trip here on a monthly basis! 😂 Food is always good and the staff are friendly and attentive. I love the carbonara pasta and the chicken burger ❤️ the veggie options are also very good!

Excellent service, friendly staff, and very helpful. Great food 😋

Quick service. Friendly staff. Tasty food.

Me and my kids love it there. The food, the service and the atmosphere always great. Today my son also enjoyed the happy birthday song and the dessert 🍨. Wasn’t my thing in the past but now is and to my surprise my usually shy son asked for it himself. Sean and the rest a big thank you for making it a special outing for us!

Food and service was very quick. Fran was very attentive and friendly!

Great family meal out. Server (Fran) was very friendly and helpful.

Service was a little over exaggerated the waiter was a little false he was full on when ordering trying to push the most expensive like doubling up on drinks or having another but when it come to paying we had to wait around the food was well over priced £17 for a double cheese burger was definitely not worth it but we kind of expected to pay more than normal So that was no surprise the cutlery was left in a pot on the table where anyone could have fingered dropped or even used the stack of menus/ kids colouring pics were re-used so all in all an expensive meal that wasn't worth that much and I feel the hygiene was not up to scratch.

Food was great as always. Great service. Ellie was lovely, polite and attentive.

We came on 18th January for my 40th birthday, booked as a surprise for me and my whole family showed up along with several friends, so we were a large group with several small children. We were served by Sean who was genuinely lovely and amazing - from the moment we walked in, he greeted us warmly, fetched us some drinks, he was friendly and accommodating throughout the whole evening. The food was lovely, hot and fresh with steak cooked to perfection. Thoroughly enjoyed the donut birthday cake as well! There were a few problems with the restaurant apparently being short staffed that evening and technical problems with a new til/ordering system but Sean handled the whole thing very professionally with good grace and humour and we were delighted with his fabulous customer service and hospitality. Thank you, Sean, for making my big 4-0 a fantastic night to remember, you are a star!

Chill vibes. Good music in the background whilst we ate some nice food. Free parking. Great service by Aimee.

Went in for ice cream with my kid and was made to wait over half an hour for it. Got tired of waiting and left

Had a lovely evening food and service was amazing. Served by cheryl

great service from Cheryl and very nice food.

Dunno. Just feels like it's being kept open for some unknown reason...I can't imagine they're a global superpower in the restaurant game... First time ever eating there. Staff were friendly enough, but the atmosphere was dire, the food was average and the bill was too big. Sorry...

Great food, great service, lovely atmosphere big shoutout to Russ for making my experience enjoyable

Food was very good. The team were great at making it special for our sons birthday. The team sang HBD a few times tonight and each time they gave it 100%.

I visited Frankie & Benny’s last Saturday (6th January) with my friends. We sat on table 28 and were served by the lovely Aimée. She was so bubbly and friendly. The food came quickly and everything was done with a smile. :)

We came after bowling session and were greeted by smiling lady, food was lovely and fresh! Home made to- you can tell. Pizza dough was just fab! Staff were amazing and very accommodating with kids requests! Sean was great 😊 Thank you

Fran was an excellent waitress and the food was lovely.

Fran was a wonderful server for tonight! The nicest server we’ve had in here, but they are all lovely. Lovely food too.

We were served by Caitlin. An excellent member of staff, we felt well looked after

Popped in for tea with our son and his friends. Caitlin and Sean were fantastic - food and service amazing!! Thanks Team F and B Rubery xx

Caitlin was our server and she was brilliant. Very kind and went out of her way to make our daughters birthday special. Thanks Caitlin!

Came for my nieces birthday, great food and fantastic service from Caitlin, very friendly and helpful.

The food was lovely with good size portions and lunch menu was quite a steal for the price. Our server Caitlin was lovely and really attentive.

Food was terrible- the eggs Benedict was a let down.

Very bad service on restaurant and delivery bad food arrived
