Great family venue. The food was generally all pretty delicious. Service is friendly and fast. We ordered the wings, which we thought were great value. We felt that the tenders and loaded fries were a bit expensive for what you get. So good that it's a venue that you can book ahead of time so you don't have to stand in a queue. Would recommend.
