Company Details

Frankie & Benny’s is the New York and Italian-themed restaurant and bar chain which operates from over 200 branches in the United Kingdom. The chain has in fact always been owned by British company The Restaurant Group plc, which also runs Chiquito, Garfunkel's and other brand names in the British restaurant and pub industry.

Although the fictional back story of the restaurant chain’s history shows a certain Franki N. Bennie taking over the family business in 1953, the first actual Frankie & Benny’s didn’t open until the mid 1990s, when The Restaurant Group plc opened the first restaurant in Leicester.
