This review is especially helpful for those who have or use the following: Hearing Aid, Sign Language, Wheelchair, Powerchair
Overview
Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful and had evidently gone to some effort to convert the building for physical access, with some imagination and reasonable success. Not 100% accessible but they have put considerable effort into making it as accessible as possible.
Transport & Parking
There's no parking, disabled or otherwise, but there's parking in Ripon. Finding the nearest drop kerb is a chore.
Access
There's a really decent permanent ramp outside. In the restaurant itself, there's a long, central aisle which is ramped, quite steeply, though with breaks in the slope. There's tables to either side; some areas are accessible and some aren't, because of the interface with the sloped aisle. It is all on one level, no induction loops, no alternative formats.
Toilets
Reasonably roomy disabled toilet, at the back and with space to manoeuvre, but with some form of obstruction in the transfer space. Clean and tidy and space for a carer.
Staff
Very welcoming and helpful.
Anything else you wish to tell us?
Would definitely recommend it.
