As a parent? A soft play 😂😂

Personally I find the combo of a Starbucks and a Pret to be the elite combo (or anything with a Burger King if it’s late night 😂)

Toilets that you don't have to queue half an hour for.

NewCushions · 12/12/2025 15:25

Clean toilets that also don't require an additional ten minutes to walk to and/or queue for.

I also really like it when they have something MORE than just bog standard fast food. I mean, it's all fast food so that's fine, but when the only options are burgers or chicken nuggets it's so tiring. Give me at least one asian option or mexican or whatever.

and yes to a decent cofee chain that has decent coffee, even if it's not my preference. I don't like starbucks but I'll take it over some random place seeling very average coffee.
