No Spontaneous Lunches for You!

I have since uncovered two more restaurants which are, apparently, uninterested in spontaneous patronage by strollermums. Why can I say this, you ask? Because, while they all HAVE wheelchair-accessible entrances, NONE have any means by which these entrances can, indeed, be ACCESSED at the clients' timing.

All require advance warning and/or sending an able-bodied companion to notify staff of your presence.

So, if you're on your own with a stroller, looking for a quick bite while the baby naps, these restaurants are not for you!

Milestones at 812 Wharf st
Japanese Village Restaurant at 734 Broughton st.


...and as previously mentioned, Ric's Grill on 910 Government st.

These entries fall into a newly-dubbed category: THE WALL OF SHAME. Who will be the next entry to The Wall? Stay tuned to find out!

  4. Anonymous 1 and 2, you have issues. If you pulled your head out of your asses for long enough, then you`d see that strollermums are no more trouble than any other customer group.

    Anon 3, lol, too true! I`m new in town, so don`t know about the hot restaurants yet. Hence, the random selection. :-) Have you been to Japanese Village? Is it worth going to when I`m baby-free?
