A Quest for Peace and Quiet (UK)

After much hard searching I've found a childfree restaurant fairly close to me. The The Waterfront Public House , Barton Marina, Burton upon Trent makes this statement on its website: NO children under five years-of-age are allowed inside The Waterfront premises Children over five years-of-age are welcome until 7pm. Children over fourteen may dine with an adult after 7pm. A recent review on TripAdvisor says: At last an evironment NOT full of parents with noisy children Thank God for the watershed time restriction on children in this beautiful venue.

Other than the cryptic tagline: "we're all grown up" printed quite discreetly near the top. I must admit that the earlier ad does turn me off a little. It does sound like too many TV ads; an attempt at humour that isn't quite working. As a 'grown up' myself the second ad does work better for me, despite the fact that it does not speak the name of the thing that I'm most keen to discover. Maybe that's the reason. A decision to focus on the positive. But I'm concerned that they may have been forced to remove the reference to families because they crossed some line, maybe a legal one, maybe ...
