Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Castleford Description
Frankie and Benny's combine the best of classic American and Italian in both style and cuisine. They specialise in home style cooking 'just like Mamma used to make it'. This is a great place to take the entire family and represents excellent value for money. The restaurant and bar is suitable for any occasion, whether it's a leisurely lunch, a family meal or a fantastic evening with friends - they make sure you have a great time.
Walking into the restaurant is like stepping back into 1950s New York, from the clatter and chatter of the open kitchen to the bottle lined bar. Walls with black and white family photographs showing life in Brooklyn's "Little Italy" surround cosy booth seating and tables. Combined with the classic music of the fifties, a mix of American swing and beat, they definitely provide a fun and friendly atmosphere for all to enjoy.
Frankie and Benny's offers a range of succulent starters, mouth watering meals and delicious desserts. Favourites include chargrilled burgers, pizzas, pastas and house specialities such as chicken parmigiana, risotto and T-bone steak. The bar serves a wide range of beers, wines, spirits, cocktails and soft drinks.
Their sharing platters with options of chicken, skins, ribs and wings and a combination are a great way to start your meal if you are dining in a group. The pastas, calzone and pizzas are attractive and all made freshly on order. An interesting dish on the menu is a breakfast pizza with generous amounts of pork and herb sausage, ham, sautéed mushrooms and a whole egg cracked into the centre before baking. They also serve a variety of sandwiches and burgers throughout the day.
For children up to the age of ten, an all-inclusive menu featuring Frankie and Benny's very own Gangster Mice is available! For just £3.95, your child can choose from a great selection of main courses, desserts and soft drinks. As an added treat, they'll also receive a kid's pack full of activities and stackable crayons to entertain them whilst you eat.

Your Reviews of Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Castleford
Graham (11 November 2007)
After four attempts at allowing F and B's to get it right, I am now firmly of the belief that the restaurant is perhaps beyond improving. I visited there on the request of my ten year old son. Despite the restaurant being one third full, it took seven minutes for someone to come and seat myself and my son. I decided on a main course, tuna Niçoise salad and my son on a chicken free Cesar salad off the juniors menu. As my son has a couple of allergies, mainly due to some of the ingredients contained in sugary soft drinks he asked for water, which he should have got fee as part of his meal.
The juniors menu offers unlimited soft drinks free of charge yet despite that we were charged for the still water that my son asked for with the waitress saying that water is not classed as one of the soft drinks available on the children’s menu; it’s amazing considering water is cheaper than soft drinks. Our meals arrived and my son’s junior Cesar salad was larger than the main course tuna, Niçoise salad that I had ordered, which at £8.45 should have been a little more substantial for a main course. Incidentally, the tuna was still red in the middle of the steak. From ordering our meals, it took nearly thirty minutes to arrive. My son’s activity pack arrived at the end of the meal. Overall another poor experience at F and B's. The two salads, the fully loaded jacket and one drink each came to £23.50. It’s a rip off, considering the service and quality of food.
