Never more! In 2021 and before, IKEA restaurant was only place in Warrington that offered cheap and relatively healthy food, which was very pleasant offer in one of the most unhealthiest countries in the world. But in 2022 a lot have changed. Prices went up rapidly, around 20% in average, white fish fillet was replaced by tasteless muddy grey fish garbage, portions are smaller and what is absolutely most disgusting is hot drink policy.

Read moreWhenever I've attempted to grab a simple cup of coffee at this restaurant, I've quickly given up due to the overwhelming number of people waiting in line. I can't quite comprehend the reason behind the long queues. Furthermore, the food quality at this establishment falls below the expected standard.
It seems like everyone is particularly enamoured with the meatballs, but I fail to understand the appeal. From my perspective, the meatballs appear to be made from low-quality, fatty meat that has been excessively compressed into hard balls. They lack the tender texture and flavour that one would expect from a well-prepared meatball. I must admit, I feel like I might be missing something that others seem...
