After a long drive from Mozambique we arrived to have a pleasant and relaxed meal before heading back to Gauteng. The food and service was really good, however we had the ambience shattered by the shrill screams and running around in the restaurant of 5...ill disciplined children who's parents were nowhere in sight. Despite the fact that all these children are all well below the age of 10 frequently walked in and out of the smoking/bar area which
strictly prohibits children under 18. As we arrived at 20:30 and stayed until 21:45 during which time we were subjected to the continued screaming and running of this group of children
without any sign of a parent , we made enquiries from the staff as to the parents whereabouts. Although the staff did their best to control the children they are seemingly not used
to any form of discipline. We were surprised to learn that the parents during all that time were socializing with the owner of the establishment at the bar that is located in the
smoking area which will explain the children's frequent entering into the restricted area. We are appalled at the parents irresponsible parenting of their children or rather at the
lack thereof, but also by the owner frequently permitting flagrant breaches of the law by permitting these children to enter and remain present in a restricted smoking area.
I seriously trust Head Office will look into this complaint as it is apparently not an isolated incident but a scene that it plays itself out 3 to 4 times every week with the same
group of children while their parents socialize with the owner at the bar. This is unacceptable 😡
