• A great meal out

  I really love Frankie and Benny's restaurants. They have consistently impressed me, and this one just down from Canada Water tube station didn't dissapoint, either.I went with a few friends after visiting someone in the area, and found it really enjoyable. The first thing about Frankie's you will notice is the unusual surroundings - it's like an old-time diner, with lots of random items on the walls, from bicycles to portraits of Frank Sinatra. The music also blares 50's type jazz swing as you enter, which is really great and sets the tone nicely.The food is wonderful - I'm sure a lot of it will be frozen, due to the volume of customers, but it's all cooked freshly and not re-heated for you. I usually have the garlic ciabatta to start which always tastes really fresh and is utterly different from normal, frozen stuff. For the mains you can get a huge selection of American/Italian stuff - pizzas, pastas, burgers, wonderful steaks, sandwiches, baguettes, etc. etc. It's all fresh, hot, and you can see the kitchen staff cook it since it's open plan!The desserts are the last thing - and they're amazing! Big portions of spongey and syrupy cakes, tall glasses of ice cream sundaes and a general mishmash of sugary delights await you.The prices can be higher than your local takeaway but trust me - it's worth it!

• good food good prices

  Now this place i love,you tell them how you want your food and thats what you get.huge portion sizes with a great taste.one thing to note is that there is always a que but you can wait at the bar.they are also great with kids and they can be as fusy as they wish with what they do and dont want as its all made to order.they also give them a colouring book and crayons to keepm them occupied.This is a great place to eat sunday lunch or to take the kids to after a game of bowling.
