Great place for the kids, lovely Animals, soft play & parks, but the cafe let the side down on this occasion unfortunately.
Pili Palas Nature World的点评
点评:Our son had been asking to visit for some time and wanted us to go as a family, so we finally decided that today was the day.
As we arrived around lunchtime, we headed straight to the café before seeing the animals. We ordered:
- a jacket potato meal
- a cheese and ham panini, which the young staff member serving us said came with crisps and salad,
and a lunch box for our son.
When we checked the receipt, we noticed that we'd been charged an additional £3 for cheese on both the jacket potato and the "cheese" and ham panini. We're also pretty certain that we were charged an additional £1 on the jacket potato meal when comparing it to the company's menu board.
In addition, the panini meal did not arrive with crisps. I politely queried this with a member of staff in case there had been a mistake. After explaining that her colleague had told us the meal included crisps, I was simply told that it did not, and the conversation was awkwardly dismissed. Unfortunately, there was no attempt to resolve the issue or clarify the discrepancy, which was disappointing.
Normally I would let something like this go, but the accumulation of small issues prompted me to leave a review. While an extra £3-£4 may not seem like much, with the current cost of living, every penny counts. The biggest issue was also the fact that any additional charges were not explained to us when ordering.
On a positive note, the rest of the visit was excellent. We loved seeing the animals and insects, taking photos, and learning about them, and we couldn’t fault that part of the experience at all.
We would likely visit again in the future, but whether we use the café again is another matter.
翻译:儿子一直想来玩,也想全家一起去,所以我们终于决定今天成行。
我们中午左右到达,在去看动物之前,我们直接去了咖啡厅。我们点了:
一份烤土豆套餐
一份奶酪火腿帕尼尼,给我们服务的年轻店员说帕尼尼配有薯片和沙拉,
还有一份给儿子的午餐盒。
查看收据时,我们发现烤土豆和“奶酪火腿帕尼尼”都被额外收取了3英镑的奶酪费。我们还很确定,烤土豆套餐也被额外收取了1英镑,因为我们查看了菜单。
此外,帕尼尼套餐里没有薯片。我礼貌地询问了一位店员,以防是弄错了。我解释说她的同事告诉我们套餐里有薯片,但她只是简单地告诉我没有,然后就尴尬地结束了对话。遗憾的是,他们没有尝试解决问题或澄清差错,这令人失望。
通常我会对此类小事置之不理,但这些小问题累积起来,促使我写下这篇评论。虽然额外支付的3-4英镑看起来不多,但在如今的生活成本下,每一分钱都很重要。最大的问题是,我们在点餐时没有被告知任何额外费用。
值得一提的是,此次参观的其他部分都非常棒。我们很喜欢观赏动物和昆虫,拍照并了解它们,这部分体验无可挑剔。
我们将来很可能会再次光顾,但是否会再次光顾咖啡馆则是另一回事了。
