TV presenter and The Masked Singer judge, Davina McCall has raved about the 'terrible service' at a notorious restaurant that she and her family took a 520-mile round trip to visit. While the 55-year-old is better known for her healthy lifestyle, Davina and her boyfriend, celeb hairdresser Michael Douglas, were forced to wear cheeky hats at the Karen's Diner in Manchester, a restaurant that will be opening a Welsh branch in February.
Davina and Michael are pictured on her Instagram accounts with hats that say 'MILF' and something spicy about 'carpet burns.,' while one of the party is abused for being a vegetarian. They visited the Manchester branch of the restaurant which serves diner-style food like burgers and hot dogs with extra saltiness, after travelling from their home in Tunbridge Wells.
Diners in Wales wishing to get the same insulting experience will only have to wait until February 17 as that is when the Newport branch of Karen's Diner opens, you can read more on that, here.

Writing on Instagram, Davina said: "We made a pilgrimage from Tunbridge Wells to Manchester and back in a day to go to the almighty @KarensDinerOfficial. Amber took terrible care of us - she was totally hilarious.
"Our greeting by front of house was brilliant it was so so so funny. Tag line to Karen's diner is great food terrible service... it HAS to be experienced.
"Highlights include Harriet getting her veggie burger with a flag on a cocktail stick in it... and it said w*****", followed by laughter emojis. Davina added that: "It was worth the journey"

The diner, which hit the headlines via TikTok last year, has boomed in popularity since it opened its first restaurant in Sydney, Australia in 2021. After expanding across Australia the chain, which has the motto “great burgers and very rude service”, opened earlier this year in Birmingham, Sheffield, and Manchester.
The restaurant’s name is very deliberate - with the reference to Karen now a well-known slang term meaning an entitled or demanding woman. While the name of the game is to be almost as rude as you like while dining, there are some house rules which the restaurant says it takes very seriously. The rules are; no racist, sexist, homophobic or ableist comments, no body shaming, no sexual harrassment, no vandalism, and no throwing food.
