Next up is La Fiesta Cafe! This gem can be found at 1001 Douglas st, though the entrance is off Broughton. When I went there, there were already two other strollermums happily seated and eating... this bodes well. :-)
Access: Very good! Two entrances means greater flexibility for manoeuvring around crowds, etc. The only improvement I could offer would be a wheelchair-access door-opening button. Moving around the restaurant was also pretty easy, and there were several tables where one could park a stroller without it being in the way.
Food: My chimichanga was delicious, and MASSIVE. It was possibly the biggest I've ever seen. Also, they serve Tater Tots by the bagful. If you are able to resist the urge to eat Tater Tots until the point of sickness, you are a better human being than I am.
Service: Friendly and prompt.
Cost: Pricey. My chimichanga, a small bag of Tater Tots, and a drink came to $17.50. However, this quantity of food could have been a filling lunch for TWO people; instead of leaving some to have for lunch the next day, though, I opted to eat Tater Tots until I nearly went blind. Word to the wise: given the immense portions, perhaps consider asking for half of your meal to be put into a takeout container.
Baby-Friendliness: Very baby-friendly, as was evidenced by the several other happy babies and toddlers I noticed during my visit. The noise level was lively without being loud. Otherwise, it was a bright, clean, pleasant place to lunch with my baby. I did not check out the bathrooms, so I cannot say whether there's a change table there or not.
Overall Grade: A!
Congratulations, La Fiesta Cafe, for nabbing StrollerFriendly's third ever A rating! You're in good company.
Stay tuned for more ratings... now that spring is finally here, it'll be more often that I'll be out, about, and needing a stroller-friendly lunch. Thanks for reading!
