Chessington World of Adventure Resort - Zafari Bar & Grill

It was our first time at Chessington & we were so impressed with the level of service we received that we cannot wait to return. In the restaurant my wife ordered ate the fish and chips & my daughter & I ate the burger and chips. Both dishes were delicious & cooked perfectly. The portion amounts were bang on too. Our waitress Rafina was very efficient & nothing was too much hassle. For example milk was provided for my little girls bedtime bottle. I felt Rafina helped exceed our dining experience beyond the highest level & made me feel we had a personal connection. When my wife & child went for a walk Rafina made me feel comfortable as I was sat on my own, I only wish I had gone out my way to make her aware of my gratitude. If I could change one thing it would be another option for beer, i.e. Carling, Corrs or Estrella.

wonderful meal, great atmosphere, excellent and speedy service

Went for my son's 10th birthday- had a great time. The animals were out - saw zebras, ostrich, giraffe and buffalo. Food was better than I had expected after reading some of the reviews. Nice atmosphere and very attentive waitress. I also liked the lounge/bean bag area which was showing the film Madagascar plus The Gruffalo popped in for a visit! My son had a great birthday!

Amazing location, stunning views and beautiful sympathetic theming. Really magical hotel all round. Friendly staff. Bar was excellent and immaculate service from the bar manager. We ate here for breakfast and the food was only so-so, with a poor range of hot food, but I'd love to return to try the a la carte lunch and dinner menus. That's why it's 4 not 5 stars.

The value of money was very disappointing, staff were friendly and helpful but other than that would not visit the restaurant again.

Fantastic views of zebra, ostrich, antelope and even giraffes. Food ok - the best best are the simple grill choices - the hanging skewers in particular. Merlin pass holders get a discount that makes it worthwhile.

Poor

Restaurant served excellent food, view was amazing and the service was excellent. Favourite dish was the tandoori chicken skewers.

Half rack of ribs was huge! Definitely couldn't do a full rack. Could have been hotter when served. But overall food was good. Staff very pleasant and accommodating but not very attentive. ie .. forgot about checking on you and dessert menu's clearing tables etc... but if you made a request they were very willing. Restaurant and bar setting is fab as are the views! Loved it !

Amazing
