Great if you have little children! This restaurant was a great place for a midweek, lunchtime treat. We had our 2 year old twins with us which is always an adventure! But the great thing about the Frydays restaurant is that there’s a small, fenced off play area where little ones can play happily whilst we eat and have a conversation in peace (which is a novelty for us). The food was good quality and served quickly plus the girl serving us was really friendly.
