“At Bennigan’s, we’re all about what I call ‘new-stalgia’ – which is a mix of fond memories, shared experiences and legendary food delivered with a friendly smile and warm hospitality, like it used to be,” said Chairman and Legendary Restaurant Brands CEO Paul Mangiamele. “Bennigan’s is in an exciting regenerative moment, and we are so thrilled to be featured in a movie as fun and heart-warming as ‘About Fate,’ which delivers on those same memorable experiences that have always defined our brand. It’s rare when you can play a big role in a film without speaking a line, but then again, we believe our food, drinks and service have always spoken for themselves!”
Bennigan’s invites everyone to go see ‘About Fate’ when it premiers in-theater Sept. 9, then come back to the restaurant to find your own true love – even if it turns out to be a World Famous Monte Cristo!
