    We went for dinner with Santa, but Santa wasn’t there the whole time we ate and only appeared 15 minutes after we’d paid the bill. We’d promised the children lunch with Santa, so they spent the whole time asking where he was. Wasn’t as advertised, we got to see Santa in the end but wasn’t what we’d expected. Wouldn’t bother doing anything similar here again.
