Favourite Family & Casual Dining Restaurant – The Cheesecake Factory
A restaurant that needs no introduction, The Cheesecake Factory is named for its most decadent desserts. Reaching them is no mean feat, mind you, as the phenomenally-sized plates that greet diners as mains are often enough to feed two (or even three) mouths. But if you do save room you’ll be richly rewarded by a plethora of cheesecakes in everything from chocolate cherry to salted caramel and red velvet. Dig in.

Whether you’re a grande frapuccino or a tall mocha, there’s everything you know and love at Starbucks, plus loads of sandwiches, snacks and cakes (don’t miss the rocky road).
