They went from kids/family vibe to “operating theatre please leave quickly” vibe. In Australia we had one with a train carriage for kid’s birthdays, one with a plane, all sorts of fun. I understand the change and the coffee is better for it but still change isn’t always a good thing

It's probably for the better that they shifted their focus from kids to more adults/general public. Fast food isn't healthy and we don't need to be advertising it to kids any more than we should be advertising cigarettes to them either, and we don't.

All because people cant be trusted to moderate themselves..
fast food isn't healthy, but neither is eating loads and loads of fruit (natural sugars still rot teeth)
but a mcdonalds every so often as a treat is harmless.
just a shame we have people feeding nothing but to their kids.
