DO NOT GO THERE!!! It is a greasy spoon and it serves up the unhealthiest of food. I took the fish finger and chips for my little ones and didn't allow him to have any chips because they "smelled greasy". The children menu also come with one of those Robinson drinks "low sugar" but full of sweeteners, no thank you!My breakfast was not good and we also tried the pancakes and maple syrup... not good either...

I had a "pure orange juice" and I asked first whether they meant "freshly squeezed". I was told it was but i really don't think it was, it tasted like juice made from concentrate.I went there because it is listed along the lines of banners/carluccio/giraffe/that place around the corner but the food is really awful and unhealthy, unlike other child friendly places.

You could not be more wrong. I myself went there with my children and absolutely loved it. The staff were fantastic and the food was really lovely, especially considering the price of it! it was great value, as they do everything half price of an evening which in this economic crisis is wonderful. Far from being a 'greasy spoon', it is clearly a diner, with yes, some cafe food but a lot of variety. I took my two children there and had no problems whatsoever. They do adult meals but smaller for children, and mine had the half jacket with tuna and salad, not to offend you but did you really expect to give your children fish fingers and chips and have it miraculously become really healthy as it reached your table? Don't order junk food if you don't want it, personally I think perhaps you should try to refrain from feeding your children unhealthy food anyway, so that one's on you.

When I have been there, the atmosphere is fantastic and the staff are very efficient and really friendly. They make people feel relaxed and always make an effort to chat and not behave as if you are just another customer.
Redwoods is a lovely place for affordable, tasty food and drink and I would recommend it to anyone!

what a load of twaddle you speak. there is plenty of good food there, all healthy. i have been there and the b'fast was really crisp and no grease at all. and again the pancakes are addictive when you have them once you just want them everytime

This is a great little place - one up from a greasy spoon caff, with good old fashioned hangover food. Excellent breakfasts, sandwiches, jackets and salads. The burgers are great - homemade, and cheap!! It has a welcoming atmosphere, and does the job on a Sunday afternoon. yum.

Redwoods Bar and Diner does some very tasty (very fattening!) American style food. Huge portions make it good value for money and it's a cosy little place.

My favourite dish at Redwoods Bar and Diner is the pancakes - they have to be seen to be believed! Delicious!
