Old Dairy mother (sic) and baby club
I'm going to give it a go next Wednesday. Lunch for a fiver, free refills of tea and coffee (feel like they may have missed a trick here), food demonstrations, special caged area for kiddies...
Ventured in last week, to find the front bit cleared away a bit to make room for...kiddie rubber matting, and no sign of anything else going on, but guess it's a step in the right direction. Assume dads are allowed in, despite the name. Anyone else up for it?

just to let you know a bit about the Parents & Babies Club....its
every week Tuesday to Thursday between 12-5pm. As a few of you guys have seen we have got matting down in the lounge with kids toys etc. We also have offers on food dishes, free refills on tea & coffee. Arts and crafts between 2-3pm everyday - with someone to entertain the kiddies. There will also be upcoming monthly food demonstrations from our resident chefs and other visitors to entertain the mums (and dads).
I go with my son and baby and sometimes friends. They do nice coffees and the milkshakes are amazing. They give toy packs for the kids too and we have lemon and sugar pancakes. Its my once a week treat.
It might be a bit expensive for some of the local families as a milkshake is £3 something , but I get a couple of glasses with it as its huge.
The guy who owns it is a young guy who opened one in Barnet which is really popular. So he did it all himself and it is named after his brother who died in a car crash in his teens.
He is often in there and is open to comments about what he could do to get more people in as custom is sporadic.
I would hate it to close as there is nothing really like it for families in the area and is one of the least shabbiest places around.
Plus the guy is working really hard to make it work, he is not a chair just a hard working young man - I think he is in his twenties!
On another note, is Venezia closing down? The last two times I thought I'd give them some business it was closed (lit but onlyu the owner inside and oven turned off).
