DDs 2nd bday and we’re going to a day out at west mids safari park.

Anyone know what the food is like there? Is it decent or just over priced soft play style cuisine? Thinking about packing a picnic as she can be a bit fussy but would like to know if there are decent options?

Tia ❤️❤️

Take a picnic. The food is mediocre, overpriced burgers, hotdogs etc.

It’s expensive crap so take a picnic

There are benches and some picnic space. Definitely a great plan.

Overpriced I always take food

I went yesterday and took a picnic for 14 month old dd Smile loads of places to sit and eat as it was quite empty, not alot of the food stalls were open - presumably it's quiet season midweek x

We always take a picnic because the food is vile

In the summer there's picnics everywhere, lots if green space and benches. We have eaten in before, not bad but typical theme park food I guess.
I'd also reccomend going round the safari after you've been to the theme park, we usually go twice and the 2nd times always quieter.

Take a picnic, there's a great area for toddlers with lots of little hills/tunnels and play equipment, plus toilets, picnic benches and a coffee cart in one corner of the park - just past where the hippos are. We always have lunch there.
Just checked the map online - it's called Boj giggly park.
