Parked here to go into the city center. For a weekend, there were enough spaces but mostly on the 3rd floor. Payment using the ringo app was easy.
Great place to go - not that much for younger kids. My 5 year old was a bit bored. But the teenagers loved it!
We went to w2 world buffet. I love this place, we didn't have to wait for a table, though it wss quite busy.There is something for everyone, chinese, indian, sushi, pizza, Yorkshire puds etc and deserts galore. The staff were very efficient and eager to please. Everything was sparkling clean too.
So much food, lots and lots of choice. Many different cuisines. Chinese, Indian, English All sorts, great desserts to. One little issue, the daughters friend asked for water, but then without thinking took some pop, maybe half a glass, they prettily took her glass away so she had to go and ask for another. So they loose a star for being petty, that's me being petty back !
It was OK. Nothing amazing. A couple of food places and some kind of gaming venue. Just found it whilst walking round the shops in Middlesbrough.
