“Marlo was our server and she was wonderful with attentive help and great personality. I will ask for her help in the future.”

“Here on Sunday after church. Great food and the staff is really friendly. Very short staffed (isn’t everyone!??‍♀️). One server for the entire diner, so our wait time was pretty excessive. She was doing a great job keeping up as fast as she could.”

“We LOVE Pelican’s! Friday night 7:30pm 12/23/22 it was in the 40’s and we were wanting our Pelican fix. Mine is Cotton Candy, and my husband gets Cheesecake stuffed.”

“This was my first visit to Legoland, and I was recommended to try the Apple Fries with Ice Cream, and I was not disappointed. Every fry is like a miniature bite of apple pie and delicious. If I visit Legoland again, I will be ordering these for sure!”

“I love come in firehouse ice cream and Coffee. We love Jennifer.”

“Perhaps one of the best funnels cakes I’ve ever had. I originally wanted the Apple pie funnel cake but they were out of apples and I chose Cookies and cream as an after thought. Well I’m glad I did. Pure deliciousness!!!”

“My family and I stayed at the Legoland Hotel for an entire week. The atmosphere around both hotels and the park itself was amazing. All of the staff members were lovely and made my son's birthday extra special. Hunting for pop badges was super fun, even for adults, however, its meant as a way for children to get out of their shells and speak to people, so if youre hunting with your kids, encourage them to be the ones to ask staff members for the badges. Also, there's a very good reason for check in times at 4pm at the hotels- so you dont have to pay for parking ($35/day). The park is very inclusive, having a sensory rating system throughout on various rides and attractions, there are also sensory-friendly hours in the park. I can't say enough good things about this place and we are already planning on returning.”

“It's better than McDonald's chicken but less than Chick-fil-A. It definitely tasted like real chicken and didn't taste oily fried at all. We thought it was great for what it was. We had a 5 and 7 year old and still had about 1.5 cups of French fries left.
We got our meal for free since someone didn't pick up their order. There soda machine is free for all 😉😉.”

“The food and overall experience was awesome. My family and I wanted to specifically give a heartfelt shout-out/huge thanks to Daryeliz, who went above and beyond to provide great service. She was super attentive of our needs at every turn and even gifted a Lego figure to my son for him to trade in the park. GIVE HER A RAISE, PRONTO. Thanks for putting a smile on our face, Daryeliz! You epitomize what service should be. You're an absolute superstar!”

“I highly recommend eating here. I have been here several times and it has always been a wonderful experience and great food.”

“Love the staff and food. Tried the restaurant after the renovation and the new items added to the menu are awesome. Everything is hot and fresh. Home made pickles are a tasty garnish. The French fries are lightly seasoned and thick crinkle cut. Golden texture is great and you don’t even need ketchup. The pulled bbq is our fav along with the Mac n cheese. Best out there. The owner comes around to Check on the tables and the staff are so friendly, you feel like part of the family. Can’t wait to go back. Breanna was our server tonight and she is sweet as the bbq sauce and took great care of us, great service.”

“I made reservations for my family since it suggested it on their website. My husband ,3 sons and I arrived and the hostess brought us to a table that was waiting for us! That was a pleasant and appreciated surprise to not have to wait. Our server,Jordyn was attentive and friendly she had perfect timing with drinks appetizers , main courses and desserts. We ordered 3 appetizers for the table and 5 different meals as well as two desserts for us each to have a sample of. Everything was not only full of flavor and perfectly prepared but also absolutely beautifully plated. We had a pleasant conversation with the owner ,Cindy, and she answered our questions about some of the flavors that we couldn’t quite place. We also discussed the history of the restaurant. It’s nice to see owners/managers in the dining area. We will come again soon and recommend this establishment to our friends and family. Thank You all”

“We are frequently vendors in Central Park for the Saturday Markets and often get our morning coffees from Jimmy and Koreem whom are the owners of Richard’s. Not only are the drinks fantastic but you cannot beat the welcoming and casual atmosphere they have created. We love Richard’s and highly recommend them for your coffee and pastry desires.”
