Says Frankie & Benny’s Head of Brand, Sasha Storey: “Here at Frankie & Benny's we know how exciting starting university can be, but it's also a huge challenge for most students, too. Managing household chores, filling the fridge up with food, and staying up to date with the university workload, the list goes on, doesn't it?

"But our comfort food offering is the ideal post-lecture haven for students, with big flavours, filling portions and most importantly, at a great price. This year we're excited to showcase the first Frankie & Benny's footwear for freshers, creating legacy showstoppers for student’s wardrobes!”
