A restaurant chain, which has restaurants in Huntingdon and St Neots, has confirmed that it has plans to close 90 restaurants.
The owner of Frankie & Benny's has said that it plans to close the branches by the end of 2021 as part of a "transformation" plan.

The company, which also owns Chiquito and Wagamama has said that the closures will impact the sites across the country.
