Overview
All the equipment necessary to make it great in theory, but in practice staff awareness let it down badly!
Transport & Parking
No specific car park as it is in the city centre. There are a number of disabled bays in near by queen street.
Access
There is a separate entrance for disabled access and a bell to press to get access. My wife and I were outside pressing the bell for about 10 mins. We called the restaurant which went unanswered. Eventually my wife went up the stairs and asked the to open the door. The staff member then sent me to the wrong level (she had never even been in the lift and had no idea what level I should go to) so my wife and I were waiting on each other on different floors. Pretty frustrating!
Toilets
Didn't use the toilets.
Staff
Once in the restaurant we were seated in the centre of the restaurant despite informing them I was a WC user when booking. After 3 waitresses banged into my Wheelchair (without apologising) while serving, we asked to be moved to a quieter area. We were then treated as what can only be described as "second class citizens".
Anything else you wish to tell us?
I have been in this restaurant once before on a work lunch and everything worked very well. It may be that Zizzi's access plan doesn't suit when it is a busy period but I was certainly disappointed on this occasion.
