Restaurang Vänerparken

Vänersborgs bästa lunchbuffé när det gäller husmanskost. Jag har alltid varit nöjd här. Rekommenderas varmt!

God mat. Trevligt ställe. Förmodligen väldigt trevligt på sommaren - svala omgivningar.

Never again. Literally never. My husband and I were LITERALLY THROWED OUT of this restaurant today – even though we paid full price for the lunch menu (130 SEK). We both have sleeve surgery and can't physically eat more than maybe 200 g of food at a time. We bought a whole lunch portion, thinking of sharing the plates like we always do in all other places in Sweden. The restaurant was HALF EMPTY, lots of empty tables. But no. The staff came over and announced coldly that if we eat at the table, only ONE of us is allowed to touch the food – because "we have only paid for one person". They offered to pack all the food in takeaway boxes and that we could take it with us and eat somewhere else. The alternative? My husband could buy a coffee for 26 SEK – then he was allowed to sit at the table, but still NOT touch the food. I asked if they had children's portions or any solution for gastric bypass patients. The answer: “No, we don’t.” Period. So we had to pack up our half-empty bolognese (which was served without cheese at all, by the way) and walk away in shame. This is not just bad service – it’s downright discriminatory against people with functional impairments after bariatric surgery. We will never set foot here again, and I certainly don’t recommend anyone else to do so either. There are so many nice restaurants in town that understand sleeve surgery. Buckle up or shut up.
