is hard rock worth it

The Hard rock cafe menu is the same in all HRC venues. However, in USA they are better value as what they charge $16 for in England it would be £16. My little girl loves the ambiance of HRC as well as Planet Hollywood and they are the two restaurants we look out for where ever we are. We are going to London this weekend and have pencilled in a visit to HRC, Planet Hollywood and the Rainforest Cafe. However, in London they are nowhere as picturesque as the ones in Florida. They are also quite small in comparison and nothing glamorous to look at.

I think the Rainforest Cafe in London is great - we'll be eating there on Friday in fact! They close so early though!

I only go to the Hard Rock Cafe in London when we don't have the kiddies with us - it can get quite smokey as it's so small.

Planet Hollywood in London is awful as a restaurant - but great as a bar.

I'm now a great fan of the Rainforest cafe in Downtown Disney.......

We had an American boss play a wicked joke on us; we were running a big project for one of the top banks in London and had invited 1 of the directors to lunch so our American friend agreed to organize it (he had the expense account). We (about four of us) met the director and a some of his managers at the bank then we were taken by car to the venue. Yes! if you haven’t guessed it was the Rainforest restaurant in London. In we troop all in dark suits some with briefcases surrounded by kids and mums, and the banks director was not amused. Food and service were great though and we all got balloons for being good boys.[msnsmile2]

Awwwww, did the Director come round in the end Dave?

Well we nicknamed the project Grace after that " but for the grace of God, we nearly got fired"
Though worth it to see the faces on the Bank suits..[msnsmile2]

:D

Hard Rock Cafe never again, the food was raw and the service was not up to much maybe we caught them on a bad day but we won't be going back, now Planet Hollywood, can't get enough, great portions, great food, great service.

I personally have never had a bad experience at Hard Rock but you should have wrote a letter enclosing the cheque as you must have caught them on a bad day. I do prefer HRC to planet Hollywood and feel next time you will not be unlucky, but having said that once you have a bad meal you tend never to go back so write your letter and i am sure next time you will not be disappointed.

HRC universal X2, San Francisco, New York, Las Vegas, and Nassau all great experiences.
