Pampered Experiences, Pampered Foods
Giraffe – for great family food in London.
My sister traveled to London the month before we ventured over the water ourselves. This was perfect timing in my opinion as she was able to feedback her experiences and she would know what we would enjoy and what to recommend – or not!
Visiting a Giraffe restaurant was top on her list of what she recommended was an absolute ‘must’ to do.
I had a look online and was quite impressed with the locations and the variety – there was something for everyone from cosy family diners to ‘Burgers and cocktail’ diners – this sure sounded good. The website (www.giraffe.net) is very eye catching with various offers popping up such as, kids eating free between certain dates and starter and main meals for £10.75. Have a look online as these deals change regularly. at the moment there is 15% off take out meals until the end of August.
I was travelling with my husband and 3 children so we opted to visit the Giraffe restaurant at Victoria. This seamed pretty central and close to most of the prime attractions my children were keen to visit.
On arrival the restaurant appeared clean and very trendy. I loved the decor and the ambiance of the eating area.
The waiters were super great with the kids, explaining the menu and adding little colourful giraffe cocktail sticks to their drinks – the kids still have these as a token of their visit to London. Another important point to mention was that the waiter was not hovering over our table but was available when we needed him.
My kids had 3 childrens meal deals. My eldest daughter is 11 yrs and her meal was more than enough for her. My husband opted for a mexican chicken burger and I couldn’t resist the ribs with barbecue sauce – wow – these were scrumptious! All the meals were well presented, well cooked and very tasty.
Myself and my husband were finished our meals before the kids and the waiter did not collect our plates until everyone at the table had finished their meal. This is where so many get it wrong so ‘thank you’ for that Giraffe! When the plates are collected at intervals my children refuse to eat anything else as they think the main meal is over for everyone!
We have absolutely no complaints – in fact we came back to the restaurant again before our return home!
