Boy 'too tall' for child's meal

A 10-year-old boy was refused a child's discounted meal at a Chinese restaurant in Gloucester because it said he was too tall.

Ben Gardner was measured by staff at the Angel Chef restaurant and told he was 9cm too tall at 149cm (4ft 11ins) and would have to pay full price.

"They classed him as an adult and I can't understand how they can do that," said his father, Gareth Gardner.

The restaurant said the height policy for children was introduced last year.

Mr Gardner said: "When we went into the restaurant we asked for a table for two adults and two children.

"After we finished we went up to pay and saw on the bill that they'd charged us for three adults and one child. When I disputed it, they showed us this height chart on the wall."

In a statement the Angel Chef told the BBC that the rules were clearly displayed in the restaurant.

One assumes they served the boy an adult sized meal then, rather than a childs' portion????
