Frankie & Benny’s adds 26 new dishes in massive menu shake-up including breakfast pizza
FRANKIE & Benny's has overhauled its menu and added 26 new items - including a breakfast pizza and a Toblerone cheesecake.
But 28 dishes are being axed to make room for them at the American-Italian-inspired chain - and they might include some of your favourites.
There will be more healthy options on the menu, with seven new vegan items, four new veggie dishes, as well as alcohol-free Prosecco and beer.
But there are still some deliciously indulgent treats, such as a new-recipe tiramisu and a lemon meringue "bomb".
You can also have pizza for breakfast, which will be topped with cherry tomatoes, sausage, mushrooms, cheese, ham and a fried egg.
And for dessert, we'd pick the Toblerone cheesecake, which comes with crumbled bits of the Swiss chocolate bar on top.
Sadly, the exciting new additions come at a price.
The chain is discontinuing two more dishes than it's adding to the menu.
The axed meals include the bacon cheeseburger, pepperoni calzone pizza, pizza fries, cheeseburger dough balls, and the chocolate and raspberry lava cake.
We've listed all the new and discontinued dishes below.

So if there are any dishes you want to taste before they are scrapped forever, you might want to head down to your local branch in the next week.
A spokesman for Frankie & Benny's said these dishes are being scrapped because they were "unpopular" with customers.
Frankie & Benny’s Holly Davies said: "This spring we are really excited to be introducing the types of dishes that our customers have been asking for as they tell us that they want to see more of our Italian American heritage on the menu."
