    We had such a wonderful experience! My son absolutely loved the prawns for his birthday, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. The lady on duty at the play area was so patient and attentive, she really made the day special for the kids. The food was delicious and generously portioned; our family feast was a real treat. The only small drawback was that the chicken skin was slightly burnt, giving it a bit of a bitter taste, which is why I gave a 4-star rating. Nonetheless, we’ll definitely be visiting again, it was a memorable and enjoyable experience overall!
