A Bristol mum says she felt the famous Karen's Diner was 'shocking value for money' - but she was quick to add how great staff were with her autistic son. The ‘Karen’s on Tour’ diner popped up in Bristol on Sunday (April 23), with customers keen to experience the purposefully rude service it's known for.
The Australian chain, which also has restaurants in the US and Indonesia as well as in the UK, offers an ‘interactive diner experience’ with rude waiters and banter between staff and diners. The 'Karen’s On Tour' schedule has events lined up this summer in Bristol, as well as the Isle of Man, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Liverpool and Newcastle offering pizzas and 90 minutes of unlimited drinks.
Bristol resident Carrie Roberts went with her 20-year-old son to the diner’s pop-up at Revolution, but although she was impressed with the "amazing" staff, she questioned the ticket price. She said: “The entertainment was great [but] value for money was shocking at £40 per person, even for kids. We got to share a plate of nachos, which we didn’t expect or want and ordered our four pizzas, they brought two.
