I'm a tad annoyed at the moment.
Mrs Moley and I decide to go into Reading this evening for a rare treat of eating out and took our 5 month old baby girl out with us in her pushchair.
Now our baby girl is as good as gold when we are out eating - she will happily sit gurgling away to herself, playing with her toys whilst we eat (so long as we've fed her first!) and so going into town with her is no hassle at all although we are careful to make sure we don't stay too long as she gets tired and obviously at that age bed time is not very late!
Now tonight we decide we would like to have a nice healthy Wagamamas - I *really* fancied a Chicken Ramen and their Nagima Yakitori is to die for. When we got to Reading town centre it was pretty packed - with the exception of Wagas, so we though that we would be in for a nice meal.
No such luck as when we go through the doors and asked to be seated at the end of a bench the serving girl became *really* uncooperative saying we would have to put our baby in the aisle between two benchs rather than at the end "because we are always going past with hot food". Fair enough, except of course they are going down the aisles with hot food too and there was room at one end of the restaurant where the bar was (no hot food there) but she wasn't having it.
In the end we walked out and went across the way to Yo! Sushi where the staff were courteous, friendly and couldn't do enough for us and my baby girl was allowed to sit at the end of our bench with any issues.
I didn't realise Wagamamas was so baby-unfriendly and we'll not be taking our business there again.
