Zellers Family Restaurant

Yesterday we were out and we decided to try something different. We had a 2 for 1 coupon (compliments of the the Entertainment Book) for the Zellers Family Restaurant. I haven't been there since I was a little kid. In fact I don't know anyone that goes there except for seniors.

I have to say I was very surprised at my experience. The food was good and reasonably priced. Of course my husband had to order the most expensive thing on the menu (Sliders) but overall with a $5 tip it came to $25 for all three of us to eat. In total we saved about $8. Here are the benefits of eating there:
1) There are high chairs set up for children. In a food court it is impossible to get your toddler to sit in one of those chairs for very long. There is so much noise and distraction that they can barely focus on the food.
2) It is quite and relaxing. The busiest thing in the restaurant was the waitress who was running around serving everyone.
3) The food was reasonably priced. I had a BLT with fries and a drink for $6.50. If I had gone to the food court I would have spent the same amount of money.
4) Each kid gets a colouring book and crayons. This is a great distraction when you are trying to eat your meal or wait for it (which didn't take very long to come)
5) The service was very good. The waitress was friendly and gave Master D a free cookie.

Overall I was very surprised that we enjoyed it as much as we did. As were were leaving the waitress mentioned that kids eat for free on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Now I have to go back.

Overall I recommend trying it out.
