“If you have children, absolutely avoid this place at all costs. Holy moly – the most disrespectful owner made a huge scene in front of the entire restaurant because our children were “running through the restaurant” – they were down by the river.. we were told we need to “go to Burger King and Walmart” and that we were bad parents,” another review said.
The restaurant’s owner, Tim Richter, answered back and explained that he started the surcharge a few years ago during the COVID-19 outbreak when a family with nine children visited. Allegedly, the children were “running all over the restaurant.” Richard didn’t charge them anything, but gave them a warning.
“We want parents to be parents,” he said.
Laura Spillman, a guest, was taken aback and said, “That is crazy. For real? I don’t think you should do it because kids are cute.” Anne Cox, another guest, on the other hand, believed that a potential charge may be useful to remind parents of their responsibilities.
