We ate here on 17 Feb 09 and joined the queue which was just outside the door at around 6.30, it took around 10-15 minutes to be seated. The queue got much longer after we joined it.

We had the HB vouchers which meant we could order a classic burger, a drink, a choice of side (from soup, coleslaw or hash brown sticks only...not a free choice from the side dishes on the menu) and chocolate brownie with cream and ice cream for pud. The burgers all seem to be served with chips, salad garnish and small pot of coleslaw.

The kids could order from the kids menu (any main course, drink and pudding).

Dh ordered the Euro chick - which he said was ok, but nothing special. He ordered the soup as his side dish...expecting it to come as a starter, but it came with the main course! He said the soup was quite nice, but not as a side dish!

I had the green piece (veggie burger) - this again was fine, but not really that tasty. I had the hash brown sticks as my side dish, but didn't really need/want them, so shared them.

The chocolate brownie desert was lovely and we both enjoyed that.

The kids had the grilled cheese sandwich with chips - which they said was quite nice. This wasn't served with any salad or veg as the choice is between veg or chips and funnily enough they wanted chips!
Dd1 had the pancake with chocolate sauce and ice cream for pud, and dd2 had the ice cream with mini smarties. They both enjoyed these.

We all found that the portions were plenty big enough and all of us left some of our main course (but not dessert!).

There was a nice, busy atmosphere, the staff were friendly and we were lucky enough to see Elvis and watch the staff dance to Grease and Freedom, which was quite entertaining. I feel that the ambience of the place outweighs the quailty of the food (for the price) though.

Hello,

I notice you had the half board vouchers. Were these the standard ones? If so do you know if you got any extra if you had the half board plus vouchers?

I hope you had a great holiday

You don't get anything extra for any of the half board vouchers in any of the restaurants - if a restaurant is included at halfboard standard, then you get the same with your half baord standard vouchers as you would with half board plus or premium.

Hope that makes sense

Hi,

We had a great holiday thanks
Yes we had the standard HB vouchers bought for £38 (per day, 2 adults/2 kids) and worth E56+ in DLP.

You might be better off asking on a new thread, but as far as I know, you don't get any extra by using HB+ vouchers, so it would be a bit of a waste of them imo.
