Overall Rating
Good
Wild Cabaret is found in the beautiful setting of Glasgow Merchant City/Candelriggs. It is down a quiet side street where there are a few restaurants which don't need additonal ramp access because there are no steps on entering. the room where food is served and performances take place is very spacious. the disabled bathroom is not beside the others but discretly found by the main entrance.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
smooth with no steps or need for additonal ramps however large glass doors which would need support opening. the dining area is spacious and laid out long rows of tables. there are booths but these are not wheelchair friendly. waiting staff seemed very supportive to wheelchair users and encouraged just to mention when making a booking and a table near the bar (which would mean near main entrance and Disabled toilet) would be reserved.
Parking & Transport
Poor
this is almost N/A as there is no parking for the surrounding area bar an NCP multi storey car park around the corner however with good pavements etc this wouldn't be an issue to get from. the street however is quiet enough for drop off with wide smooth pavements making wheelchair use easier.
Accessible Toilets
Good
the toilet itself is in a large room. Appropriate bars in place and plenty of space to maneouver. it does double as a baby changing area. it isnt where the other bathrooms are but near the front entrance discretly placed and definately accessible but does seem a little out the way.
Staff
Poor
Staff couldn't have been more helpful and reassuring.
Additional Information
I wanted to review this place as it isnt your typical restaurant theres entertainment and good night out and something different and i am just so glad it is accessible to people in wheelchairs so not to miss out. additonal note large heavy curtains cover the doors from main entrance into dining area. there is never an issue of a draft but curtains would need opened when trying to get to the toilet. however as this area is very near the bar there is always someone at hand.
