Any posters ever been? We’re going this year and wondering if it’s worth the money.

It will prob be a one time thing for the memories but we’ll see.

Thanks to my in-laws I’ve been the last 9 years. The kids enjoy it. There are endless mimosas that help. Santa’s helper Tiffany is usually an OT 9. Haven’t had to pay, so don’t know if it’s worth the money.

Been a bunch, not really worth the money. I (or the kids)don’t really care for the small bites of food they provide, so I basically just end up with tea and cookies. Kids enjoy it though.

I have a friend who takes her daughter (and now her niece) every year. The Roosevelt is decorated lovely for the holidays but my kids are older so we are in the bar.

I have been to the Roosevelt, the Ritz, and the WWII museum for the tea. My favorite is the WWII museum. The Victory Belles singing and the cozy atmosphere coupled with good lite bites was great.

Roosevelt is crowded. Just wait until you are in line to enter. It's like entering a Saints game from Champions Square.

It's nice but I felt like it was too fast. You spend 30 minutes waiting in line for Santa pics and you miss out on the food, drink, etc. The staple is the Christmas decor in the lobby. For Santa pics, The WWII museum is organized and calls your table when you are on deck, so you get to enjoy the tea by not standing in line.

Ritz was quaint with a Harpist, but this was during COVID and they did not do it like they normally did.

Overall you have to go as it is a nice alternative to celebrating the Holiday Season.

It’s worth it in that you are spending holiday time with the family.

Are you getting good value on the food and drinks? Obviously no.

It’ll all be about the attitude you bring

I’ve been a few times. It’s a waste of money for Jayden and Braxlyn between tball games. But you will probably get a chance to see those parent tell the people that work there how more important they are than you to the world than anyone else while you are possibly neglected by the shitty service.

It’s not really possible to imagine a situation where it would ever be worth the money. Because the entire thing is completely absurd to begin with.

But the kids enjoy it so it’s all ab priorities.
