THE doors of the new Frankie and Benny's restaurant at West Point have opened.

The Star has been given a peek inside the new restaurant on the site, off Chalon Way West, which includes a cool bar area, quirky lights, outside seating area and more.

The premises was initially planned to be a Chiquito outlet but, after delays, The Restaurant Group, who run chains including Frankie & Benny's and Chiquito decided to move their existing venue from Ravenhead Retail Park to the new site.

All staff from the Ravenhead site have moved to the new building - which officially opened its doors on Friday, April 20.

The restaurant also has a JustEat option so people can get their favourite food at home.

The premises are open 9am to 10pm from Monday to Friday, 9am to 11pm on Saturdays and 9am to 10.30pm on Sundays.

West Point is already home to an Aldi supermarket and Costa Coffee, with a Superbowl UK complex still to be constructed.
