Makes perfect sense to me. Not everyone who goes to Disney World is a child or parent.

well there has to be some sort of refuge for parents in disney world, right?

I look at this in much the same way as I look at smoking bans: I don't like smoke, so I don't frequent places where people like to smoke (i.e. bars). Therefore, I think smoking bans are silly.

I don't like children. Therefore, I avoid places where there are a lot of children (i.e. Disney World). Therefore, I think a children ban is silly.

//I like pie.

Just don't tap your feet in the restroom.

Really. What do you do there?

I'm not feeding The Mouse unless it's for a dying child.

Should have gotten a Hero Tag.

Those who think this is unusual are obviously not part of Club 33.

Brilliant! I'm going.

What's the big deal? Nothing.

Too bad the effects of the someone smoking isn't JUST a minor inconvenience, it's a public health hazard. And it doesn't go away as soon the smoker puts out his cigarette or cigar.

You're right submitter, absolutely everything at Disney world is for little kids, or should be.

My God, a little bit of decent common sense and goodness? In Florida? Can't be.

I like children but sometimes they can get pretty tiresome, therefore a sanctuary like this makes perfect sense.

Oh boy, this should be a fun thread. I know a few farkers are definitely getting their wish.

anonymousgirl: well there has to be some sort of refuge for parents in disney world, right?

FYI Pleasure Island is not as wild as you might expect.

Good.

Since every other restaurant at Disney is going to be full of screaming little kids, I see no reason why they can't have one that's quieter.

I like to smoke around children, so this is a double bummer for me.

As a parent, I can appreciate something like that. It's not a big deal.

My girlfriend wants to go simply because she's never been there before and I can't seem to talk her out of it.

So we plan to have a nice dinner, see the sights, and then have a lot of sex.

Victoria and Albert's already has a dress code, so this is really just the next step for their image.

Sounds like a good idea to me. Sounds like this place will not appeal to the cheeseburger and spaghettioes crowd. And even Disney marks it as expensivewhich is a scary concept right there.

Well they should just have a Amusement park for adults then. Disney World for adults...they are trying to get into every thing....Next there will be a Disney Candidate!

I see no harm here, even though I love my children I don't feel the rest of the world should have to put up with them everywhere they wish to go. For some silly reason grown-ups go to the Big Rat too, they might as well have a decent place to spend even more money without little snot noses bouncing off the walls.

This is outrageous, uncalled for, and a bunch of other things.

TEN? You mean you can still drag a kicking and screaming ELEVEN year old in there?

It's not a true CHILD ban unless it's an eighteen-and-over place. If they're going for the "families with older children" deal, then it should be 13 and up.

I vacationed with my family in Florida for nine years: for three of those years I stayed at one of the Disney Resorts with them. By day three, I want to lock my self up in the room. By day five, I'm hearing voices (I kid you not). If any of my trips had been anymore than a week, God knows what kind of bloody massacres you would have read about on the news.

With that being said, Disney is going to have to do a lot more than just ban whelps from ONE restaurant to win any respect from me.

It's not just banning the kids. Most of the parents dragging their little snot nosed brats to Wally World think it's time to let the little barstids run wild. Maybe that's how they always are. It will be nice to have a quiet spot there.

I haven't been there since I was too young to remember going. For all I know, the pictures of me having fun in Disney World are all fakes.

Wait a minute...

This place isn't a hot dog stand, it is a high-end restaruant where you are going to be lucky to leave under $100/person.

I don't know about you, but there are plenty of asshole kids who'll take years off your life just being around them.

They do have a theme park for adults. They call it the Las Vegas Strip.

I don't see a problem with a child free resteraunt.

($100 a person)

Okay, so I'll never, ever, set foot there anyway.

Big deal.

There's tons of restaurants there, parents with kids have plenty of places to go. They're taking the risk that the added business they will get from providing a child-free atmosphere will offset the loss of the parents-with-kids crowd.

Does not approve.

Just stick them in a trash bag

I came in here for a Club 33 reference, and I was not disappointed.

If only there was somewhere to take the children....

Hey, they have a prefix menu!

;)

I have a 4-year-old, and I have no problem with this. Children can be a distraction in restaurants, that's why my wife and I check with any restaurant we bring our child into beforehand to make sure that it is child-friendly, and we try to eat early, to avoid the dinner rush.

attention span of a retarded fruit fly: Well they should just have a Amusement park for adults then. Disney World for adults...they are trying to get into every thing....Next there will be a Disney Candidate!

wait, I though Al Gore... I mean, it's obvious he was made by the same people who did the Hall of Presidents... and the times he stretches the inconvenient truth in An Inconvenient Truth look a lot like the whole "lemming" thing.... you mean he wasn't a Disney Candidate?

I thought Disney World long had a couple of restaurants for adults only.

I'd like to see this rule implemented everywhere. I'm the parent of an 11 year old, and I rarely take him to restaurants as it is because I was a responsible parent, but on the occasions that I did bring him, the little tyke behaved himself because he was raised properly.

But it never fails, whenever I'd get a babysitter and finally get to go out to dinner with the wifey, we'd go to a nice restaurant and some idiot would bring their screaming brat and ruin our night out... >.
My sister is one of those people who lets her kids scream, saying that she doesn't want to spoil them by paying attention to them when they scream, which is almost a reasonable argument, except when the little bastards keep screaming at the top of their lungs and just being near them makes me want to break out a book by Dr. Spock and slap the kids unconsious with it.

/thank goodness my kid turned out normal

/quack

How did you get to Al Gore from adult only restaurants at Disney?

Oh, Global Warming is causing bad parenting...

/I see what you did there.

lmao
Isnt that discrimination based on age? Isnt that illegal?
lol wtf

Forget this place! I'll build my own amusement park! With hookers! And Blackjack! In fact, forget the blackjack!

fly's comment about disney candidate = al gore is where i made the jump. during that election (around here anyway) it was a common comment that mr. gore was made in the factory that made the hall of presidents....

i'd much more believe that bad parenting is causing global warming!

Raving_Lunatic: /thank goodness my kid turned out normal

Define 'normal'.

/It's still good to see responsible parents, though.
