Situated on Pride Park just outside of Derby City centre, Frankie and Benny’s is instantly recognisable by its neon red sign hanging at the front of the restaurant. Derby is just one of many branches of the popular American/Italian style diner that has been expanding since 1953 when Frankie took over from his father and continued to combine their unique mix of American and Italian cuisine.

The green, red and white shades hanging down the side of the building instantly draw the eye in. Inside you can expect comfortable furnishings and a warm, buzzy atmosphere. Frankie and Benny’s attract everyone from couples looking for a romantic evening out or friends and colleagues looking to celebrate a special occasion.

On the menu you will find a whole feast of American and Italian dishes, from authentic Italian pizza and pasta dishes such as Spaghetti Carbonara, Oven Baked Chicken Parmigana and the Meatball Siciliana Calzone as well as classic American favourites such as the 10oz New York Strip Sirloin, American Hot pizza and BBQ Ribs.

You will never be disappointed when visiting Frankie and Benny’s. Everything from the staff to the food and the restaurant furnishings themselves all create a relaxed atmosphere that makes dining here a real pleasure. The rapid growth and popularity of the Frankie and Benny’s brand is testament to the hard work that all the staff put in to making it a place people will visit again and again.

Overall

Took the kids and food was really nice. Shared a large pizza with my partner and kids really enjoy their mains. Shame that it was understaffed, the two waitresses were really stretched but still looked after us.
