Franchises really are a mixed bag imo, the actual ingredients might be the same but if they don't serve them properly it can be the difference. We eat out loads and have done for years, Frankie and Benny's over boldon was okay,the Sunderland one was absolutely shite

Few days in San Fran then a few in Las Vegas. Sounds awful (and expensive) to be honest
Tynemouth Sea Life Centre (now known as Blue Reef aquarium)
If you need to get rid of £50 in 15 minutes this is the place. It absolutely stinks as well. The worst tourist attraction in the north east.
Polar express at tanfield railway.
Polar express shildon.

Aleppo and Damascus were lovely places pre war. It’s a pity we didn’t extend the bell we’re now deservedly offering to Ukrainians to the Syrians.
I’ve not been to sea
Life but when the suggestion was made to go today it was the first thing my son snd daughter said “it stinks dad”.
We ended up in inflataspace on Benfield road. The kids enjoyed it - guess I’ll never get to smell the stinky blue reef!

What a heap of shite. Great if you've got a drone otherwise you're just walking in spirals, going nowhere.
If you've ever had a gold fish and not cleaned it out for a while, then you disturb the water, breaking the skin on the water, so it smells like you've burst a bag of farts. That's what blue reef smells like. All the fish are shite as well.
Inflataspace is cheaper and better. Often take the bairns there. Sky track is mint.

Why? Just paths in circles overlooking a quarry. Ok you might see a bit of tít but there's better places to walk with better reward
They often have a local food market on, so bit bait, bit wander. Nice family day out.
Every time I've been there (4 or 5 times) there's been nowt on, and at least 3 times there's been an argument between me and the missus. I want to get stuck in, she was wanting a leisurely stroll. Doing 5mph yomp with the pushchair leaving her behind is apparently not conducive to family time.
One time a pathway was closed due to wasps living in a burrow on the pathway.
Wetherspoons have vip sections?

That section of the bar where you see the Monday morning 08.30am lads congregate I assume.

You’re taking away the one and only reason people go there.

We were in the steakhouse on Thursday and found it to be quite nice tbf. Wasn't pretentious at all. Food was good our waiter was a bit meh but nowt really to complain about. I had the rib eye which was perfectly cooked and Mrs had the fishcake. Very tasty indeed and the bill was what you'd expect for a steak with wine beer etc.
You could expand that to any type of Christmas market. Mostly absolutely rammed where you end up getting carried along by the crowd. End up buying couple of pies or gin at double the price you would any other time of the year
