I couldn't hear what was going on at the other function. Good soundproofing. The service was good. The servers came round many times with drinks (chai and pop) before the dinner service. During dinner and after, it was a bit harder to flag a server. But it was easy to just walk over to the service station to request for water jug top up or more chai or to bus the table. The food was good too with some items that could be better. The chicken adobo had really yummy sauce but the chicken pieces were mostly bones and the meat surrounding it was hard. Roast beef was tough despite asking for a rarer part. The chicken tikka masala and BC salmon were really good. Tender and flavorful. Same with the chicken skewers. The meat was not dry. The patio outside was really nice too. Spacious. The only drawback to this place is the event parking lot is not that nearby and its stairs to get up to the place.

I'm so lucky to have this fantastic vintage venue within walking distance of my home. A few years…read moreago, the most recent owners took on the gigantic project of restoring this 1920s era vaudeville/movie house to its former glory, while also adding modern sound and lighting and reconfiguring the seating into a dinner theatre style. The pictures don't lie - there are big red velvet drapes, chandeliers and exotic Moorish/Morroccan touches like columns and murals. Just a damn cool theatre to see a show in, and I've now been to a few, from burlesque shows to my comedy idols like Bruce McCulloch. Upstairs in the smaller, and less lavishly appointed room, is Lafflines, which is a great spot to see up and coming comedians while having a few glasses of sorrow-drowning liquids and a basket of chicken strips. Both upstairs and downstairs have the same basic menu, so if you can deal with Sleemans and nachos, you're laughing. The wine list is OK, and for girl-drink drunks, they've got some sweet throwback martinis. The servers are really nice, but there never seem to be enough of them, so be decisive when they come around, because they might not get back around to you for a while! I've noticed that for some of the shows in the theatre, they'll have maybe two or three working the entire venue. Upstairs, one or two depending on the night (I tend to go on Thursdays for amateur night, so it's not usually very full). For all the fanciness of the decor, it's not at all posh, just a laid-back place to go see a live show. If you don't like fun, well, stay home.

This converted indoor warehouse space boasts multiple interactive play areas, each themed towards a…read moreparticular profession or business: fire department, news station, bakery, doctor's office, veterinarian, etc. Each comes loaded with props and costumes, so the little ones can play dress-up and let their imaginations run wild! There are also a handful of playground toys, rides, slides and other attractions, complete with foam padding, safety nets and flashing lights, guaranteed to attract their attention! Admission is $28 per child (with one "free" adult allowed to accompany them) with no time restrictions. Posters in the restrooms also advertise special "after-hours" events, such as a Nerf War night for 8+ year olds, which sounds like a blast, even for an old kid-at-heart like me! About the only thing to complain about would be the rather terse and aloof staff running the front desk and managing the expected intake forms and disclaimers - they could be a little more lively and upbeat, if you ask me. That said, they do a good job keeping up the place, performing routine rounds to put toys away, vaccum, wipe things down, and generally get everything squared away in an orderly fashion.

=== 1. VERDICT/VALUE There's not a lot of options for…read morechildren's museums in Vancouver, but the World of Kidtropolis provides a sure bet when you're looking for something for your kids (perhaps aged 8 or younger?) to do! === 2. OFFERING For $21 (or $19 with a punch card), you get admission for one adult and child for two hours. This gives you access to: - Activities for toddlers and younger elementary school-aged children; - Motion-based activities (like a climbable treehouse and slides and merry-go-round - which costs $1); - Role play-based activities (like an airplane, firehouse, police station, farm house, gas/service station, fifth-wheel camper, hospital, dentist, restaurant, food market, post office/bank, news station, ice cream stand, school, and animal hospital); - Three party rooms (two on the main floor and one upstairs); - A cafeteria; and, - Three motion-based vehicles for children (they move back and forth in one spot) that costs $1 each: a bus, ice cream truck, and a car. ...because of the $1-based rides, you made find yourself needing to bring a lot of coins (only loonies accepted) and spending more than just $19 :) Like many other children's museums, the role-playing areas are often sponsored and logo'd by local businesses. === 3. SERVICE At the reception, staff are friendly; staff are friendly in helping as needed between the overall cleanings and play-area-resets they do every two hours. We did not come here for a party, and so can't comment on the experience with them hosting parties (though we observed what looked like a Spiderman-based parties with themed balloons and someone in costume). === 4. ENVIRONMENT It's bright and the high ceilings give a feeling of openness; the areas can also be easily traversed by people of all ages and abilities. Wheelchairs and baby strollers fit everywhere (except in the tightest of role-playing areas). We did not check out the restrooms while here. Parking is a bit odd as you may find yourself parking around the building/corner since many spaces in front are reserved for other businesses.

The buffet section was nicely set up except the food was cold. Someone forgot to turn on the heater until much later. The kitchen was good at refilling empty items. There was a photo opportunity with the Easter bunny. The egg hunt was a bit disorganized. There was no official announcement when the egg hunt was starting. Some kids had a head start. All the older kids got to the candy and the younger kids came out empty handed. I think it would have been better if the Easter bunny went around to each table and handed each child a piece of candy so everyone received something. I felt bad for the younger kids who missed out completely. There was a balloon person making a balloon for each child so I thought that was great! Overall, it was a very nice brunch.

Donalda was so easy to deal with and very helpful in the booking process. The location price is a little on the high side but for everything that you can do here it's worth the cost or at least that is what I am thinking at the moment. It's wheelchair accessible and you can have your wedding outside, reception inside and pictures taken in the park area surrounding the location. I am looking forward to seeing what we can do to revamp the place for the wedding. UPDATE: This place was beautiful for my wedding. We were able to have the wedding outside and the greenery just added to the ambience. I would definitely recommend this to any bride. The place is pricey but worth it.
