Pizza Hut party- anyone done one?

[Gingerbics]

DD who will be 7 is wanting one, it's £7.99 a head which includes making own pizza, drink salad bar and unlimited icecream factory!
Just wondered if anyone had done one how long it lasted and whether there was a lot of waiting around ( just so I can bring stuff to do while pizzas cooking). Any advice welcone

Surely somebody must have, or maybe not...

My Ds had one for his (I think 6th bd. he is 9 now). He really enjoyed it. Our local Pizza Express has a downstairs eating area which we used. I was quite pleased because while the pizzas were cooking it did get a bit boisterous.
I brought tattoos for the children and colouring in. In retrospect pass the parcel of something like that would have been a good idea.
It was fun though.

My DS 8 has been to a couple and loved them if that helps?

dd has been to a couple. I think they get to use the salad bar while the pizzas cook and of course they will be talking and making general noise too!

DD had one for her 8th birthday and loved it. Pizza Hut provided loads of colouring stuff to keep the kids busy during quiet moments and they took the children to the salad bar while the pizzas were cooking then to get their ice cream afterwards. They even got a balloon at the end
I'd definitely do it again but next year she wants a swimming party...

Yaaaay! Thanks so much for the responses, good idea re glitter tattoos or pass the parcel whilst waiting. Can any of you recall how long it all took, just wondering whether to ask parents to collect after 1.5 hrs or 2? Thank you

think the ones dd went to were 2 hours

Pretty much exactly 2 hours - the waitress had a pretty manic game of Bop the Balloon going on to keep the stragglers entertained...
so glad it wasn't me!

Brilliant, 2 hours it is then, thankyou
