    Good

    I've put the review date as October 2018 but to be honest, we go on a fairly regular basis. We love this place! Its family friendly and has an excellent choice of food and desserts. The layout is brilliant, there are tables, booths and even an American school bus that has been decked out inside with tables to give a different kind of dining experience (not wheelchair accessible although it can be accessed with crutches if you can manage the bus steps) We tend to sit in the 'gas station' part of the diner which is just for over 13 year olds and upwards. It tends to be quieter in there because of the lack of little people! There is seating outside with a play park and also a large indoor play barn too (can't comment on this as we've never used it) They are also very seasonal and deck out the place at Halloween and Christmas etc and it looks great! Unfortunately, parking for disabled isn't great. Just 4 spots. One is a regular size although it is at the end of a row. Another regular size one is against a fence with another disabled car 90 degrees onto it. So basically the nose end of one car would block the side of the other car parked. The last spot is wide but it's on quite a slope! Shame really as it's a huge car park and there is ample space to have a whole row of flat disabled car parking spaces :(

    Excellent

    There are two accessible toilets. One in the main diner and one accessed from the ramp for outside diners. I've never used the outside one but the inside one is lovely and clean, big enough to turn around in and easily accessible.
