Frankie and Benny’s
Arnison Retail Park, Abbey Rd, Durham DH1 5BG
Frankie and Benny’s do a bottomless breakfast from Friday to Sunday. “Enjoy free refills on your favourite breakfast dish when you visit us before noon. So will it be the warm and fluffy pancakes, mouth-watering eggs benedict or the classic British fry up? You might have to put it to a vote!” There are some conditions on this offer though – while there is no limit on reorders, you do have to reorder the same dish each time, you can’t share and you have to finish before ordering more (fair enough!). The offer is not valid at airport locations or Edinburgh Royal Mile High Street. Make sure you get the offer from the website here. You don’t need to order the unlimited breakfast though, you can order regular breakfast too like waffles, pancakes or smoked salmon.
Beefeater
Belmont Industrial Estate, Broomside Ln, Durham DH1 1GG
Beefeater’s breakfast offering at Beefeater is excellent value especially if you have kids as one child eats free and they count kids as 15 and under.
