The Bennigan’s comeback isn't happening by accident. It's happening because people like our CEO, Paul Mangiamele, refuse to stop fighting for this Legendary brand.

Paul recently joined the Room for Seconds podcast to talk about Bennigan’s, Steak and Ale, and the passion behind bringing two American restaurant icons back into the spotlight.

For Paul, this is about more than opening restaurants. It's about protecting a legacy, honoring the generations of guests who love these brands, and making sure a whole new generation gets to experience them.

And the Bennigan’s comeback is real!

As we celebrate 50 years, we're continuing to grow, bringing our World Famous Monte Cristo™, chef driven food, innovative drinks, generous portions, and warm, friendly Irish hospitality to communities around the world.

Our mission remains to create a Legendary brand experience with every meal, every guest, every day. We believe great food should deliver both quality and quantity, along with exceptional value and the kind of hospitality that keeps people coming back.

Paul's passion for Bennigan’s is a reminder that some brands are simply too special to give up on.

And we're just getting started.

We're looking for franchise partners who share that passion and want to help bring Bennigan’s to even more communities.

Could your city be next?
