@beyondthespectrummum: My autistic son only eats home-cooked food at home. He will not eat out, ever, and won't even try anything unfamiliar. This isn't a choice or bad behaviour; it's part of his needs. The other children have never been to an all-you-can-eat buffet and are excited to try it. My son will simply be coming along to enjoy the family outing, but I know he won't touch a single thing. So, is it fair for the restaurant to charge us for him when he won't be eating anything? Especially when the restaurant is almost empty? I understand businesses have costs, but I'd love to hear what others think. Should restaurants show a little understanding in situations like this, or is it fair to charge regardless? #autismparent #autismawareness #autismcommunity #whatwouldyoudo #unfair

I have 2 nephews, one who does not eat at all and one who may if he is in the mood might actually try food. It was my daughterโ€™s 21st and we booked lanekas. They both came alongside the rest of the clan. I think there was 35 of us. They both didnโ€™t eat. When we went to pay and left the 2 out, he was not having it!! He said you have to pay. I was paying for everyone anyway, his sisters and mum said they donโ€™t eat so why should they pay but Yepp I paid for them too. Iโ€™ve not been back to that place lol itโ€™s been about 9 years now. Itโ€™s not the money, itโ€™s being greedy. Itโ€™s being selfish. For extra few pounds you will make sure the family feel like liars lol and pay.

we went to Toby carvery with my husband and 3 kids, youngest won't eat out unless it is McDonald's even then we normally have to eat in the car. he refused to sit at the table with us in Toby's so they made the walkway bigger so he could sit on the floor and people could still get round him. it was the most amazing experience we've had in a restaurant ๐Ÿฅฐ. there are places out there that will accommodate don't let one bad experience ruin it for you x

I worked in a place with a buffet like this. you don't understand how many people try this. you cannot let anyone go through the doors if they don't pay end of.
