Where we go and how they
treat us when we get there.
Monday August 23, 2010 Location The End Zone(Lakeland, North-side) 6206 US Hwy 98 N Lakeland, FL 33810 We were going to meet at Lucky's Station and Deli on the North-side of Lakeland, however after finding out that they wanted to charge us $25.00 per person we decided to go else where. The End Zone was a great place to eat. When we first arrived they had a space reserved for us, it was a bit tight and not enough seating but the Manager and Waitress added another table and everyone fit in. The space was a little too tight for those with walkers and wheelchairs but we made due and once the food started coming it was all fresh and hot. The orders were not all correct but close enough considering some of us can't remember what we ordered 5 minutes after we ordered it. The Staff at the End Zone was very accomidating and we would like to say Thank you.
Monday July 19, 2010 We met at Bob Evans on the South side of Lakeland. Even though our group had made a mistake, half of our group went to a different restaurant in Central Lakeland, we had a good time. The staff was very polite and the restaurant had plenty of room for our group. The food was good and the prices were fair. We had a good time. Thank you to the staff at Bob Evans of South Lakeland.
Monday June 21, 2010 We met at Mojo's on the Central side of Lakeland. The staff was wonderful, meeting us at the door. They treated our members with respect, courtesy, and dignity. Our service dogs were welcomed and there was plenty of space. They arranged a long table for us close to the restrooms so our members would not have far to walk. The service was prompt and the food was good. The only problem we found was the handy cap parking was too few. Many of our members had to park away from the front door which made it difficult due to the rain storm that popped up, however Mojo's could do nothing about the rain, so some of us got soaked holding the umbrellas for others while each member was loaded into there vehicles. Over all, Mojo's is a fine place to eat and meet with our friends, they have good staff and good food at fair prices. Thank you Mojo's for makeing our night out enjoyable.
Monday May 17, 2010 We met at Cici's Pizza on the North side of Lakeland, but the rain seemd to have put a damper on the size of our group. When we arrived is was pouring down rain and we definatley understand why some would be hesitant to go out in it. The manager of Cici's was polite and the staff created our favorite pizza's and brought them to our tables. There was pleanty of room for all of us and for those with walkers and wheelchairs. The manager kept checking on us and insuring everything was OK. We would liek to say Thank You to the Staff of Cici's Pizza on U.S. 98 North in Lakeland.
Monday, April 29, 2010 The Red Elephant Pizza and Grill at 5216 S. Florida Ave. in South Lakeland. The Staff at the Red Elephant met us at the door and were very hospitable. Our group had two service animals with us and the Staff at the Red Elephant did a very nice job with helping our people and accepting our service animals. The Red Elephant has a special meeting room they allowed us to use however it was just a bit too small. With many of our members have walking issues we could not have placed all of our members in the room, just a bit too small. The staff was great, funny, prompt, polite, and just all around good. The food was very good and reasonably priced. We do recommend the Red Elephant for a group meeting, just make sure to plan a little bit if you need more space for those who use wheelchairs, walkers, and/or scooters. A thank you to the staff of the Red Elephant and particularly (Chili) for taking care of our group while we visited you establishment.
