Hello. Welcome to a random post by Lu-Lu-Bee, where I tell you my good (and bad) experiences, so you can experience it properly! Or I just put what's on my mind... oh well.
So, recently (two years ago) I went to Universal Studios to see the beautiful and famed Diagon Ally, and in this blog I shall be talking about the Leaky Cauldron. Although I am very picky about my food, and so only dined there once, I hope that you might find this helpful to envision, or so-and-so whatever.
The Leaky Cauldron resembles the film perfectly- minus a couple windows. It was awesome to enter, and I felt like I was going through the actual movie set. Unfortunately, I was not, but it was still nice to believe so.
Me and my family took our seats, save one of us who was ordering, and although I forgot what everyone else got (typical me), I got the plainest meal I could find- fish and chips. It was alright, which slightly disappointed me- because while alright is, well, alright, I was hoping for something extraordinary and worthy of witchcraft-culinary skills. It was a wizarding bar, after all. Not there, I mean, but in the books.... oh well. In retrospect, I suppose I had it coming, looking for a bland meal and all. My loss, I suppose, and now, onto my list of:
"I wish they would have done this!"
First, I wish it would have been a place you could have stayed the night in- like the books! It would've given them extra cash and merchandise to sell as well- so they really should consider it!
Second, I really wish it was more magical- even if it came down to the staff wearing cheap Hogwarts robes.
Finally, I wish that it would have some sort of entertainment show, or a skit or something, like people dressed in costumes of the Harry Potter characters. Wouldn't that be something! Plus, they could charge extra, and the guests would have something out-of-the-ordinary to say about it- which is exactly the way wizarding ANYTHING should be!
Thank you for reading, and I hope this was at least of mediocre interest to you.
