My nipper(15) wants to go to the HRC for her birthday with a load of mates..
Any idea what the place is like and how much do meals cost in there, as Ive heard they are extortionate for fairly poor quality food.

Hello

It depends what you like I guess! It's very American i.e. loud and over the top. The prices are on the expensive side for the food that actually arrives. But no worse than somewhere like TGIF.

Have a look at http://www.hardrockcafe.com/location...u.aspx?lc=MENU

Better bet is somewhere like Maxwells as the food is much better and its cheaper. HRC is OK and some of the stuff is quite nice.

It's a choice between Hard Rock and TGI's really.

HRC and TGIF is a bit cheaper up here

Food's OK, Mostly grilled stuff (steaks, burgers etc.).

You have to go at least once IMO, and make sure the kids get the balloon and the "Happy Birthday Choir"

Plenty to see in HRC though so its worth going just for that. I went to HRC Cardiff when it 1st opened and paid £9 odd for burger and chips then. Dont know if its cheaper there now.

HRC in Orlando is excellent, spent a mate's stag night there. Excellent food, drinks, and brilliant atmosphere. HRC in Amsterdam is pants, might as well be McDonalds with table service. Food's OK, but there's no atmosphere and no real bar area. HRC in Leeds is little better. London is more like the Orlando one though...

Thumbs up

Went to a Hen Night at one last summer, (don't ask!!!!, and was suitably impressed with the food, disco, bar, and cocktails, although 15 year olds won't be able to partake of the latter two, will they?

I hope not, but when they dress up to go out these days they look about 20 anyway.
