| About: | Located just outside of Knott's amusement park, the main culinary draw here is the chicken served for lunch and dinner. The chicken is really out-of-this-world good. If you only love white meat, you can pay a small fee to just receive your favorite pieces. If a member of your party doesn't really enjoy eating chicken, simple salads, sandwiches and burgers are also on the menu, and don't forget to order a piece of one of Mrs. Knott's heavenly pies. It is a family-friendly environment with kids scattered about, eager to visit the amusement park. Later in the evening, the place often fills up with couples who've just stopped in for a piece of pie and a cup of coffee. There is a limited selection of wine and beer on the menu. The tasty breakfasts are also excellent. The eggs, bacon, toast and fresh juices are a delicious, filling way to start the day. |

This month of November 2009 they are sponsoring veteranâs days, where us Vets get in free. What my group experienced were a few employees making policy decisions on behalf of Knottâs. I made what sounded to be a politically incorrect statement in ear shot of an 18 or 19 year old employee and she snapped at me, âthis is a family park!â, she then contacted a supervisor, when we finely boarded the ride they pulled my five year daughter off the ride, rechecked her height by pushing down on her head to firmly to flatten her hair as much as possible causing her to burst in to tears and then told us to get off the ride. ââ She was checked before we entered the ride and told she met the requirementâ.
To me Knottâs does not respect your freedom of speech under our constitution of the United States. What this young girl did not know was the privet conversation I was having with my 5 year old just prior to her coming into ear shot. I did not use profanity; we were well mannered, waited in this line for almost two hours. No signs are posted stating âwatch every word you say, our employees and eject you from a ride or the park if they deem a word politically incorrect as what happened in our case. Itâs a shame our group with two disabled Veterans was treated in his manner, we gave huge sacrifices for these employees to be working in this country, on this job only to have judgment pasted on us over what this employee took as politically correct word and had us kick off the ride. I will never step foot on these grounds again.
They are currently advertising that they have 10 coasters, and they only have 9 including the kiddie coaster. Also the "ride on ride warriors" are funny seeing as they only have one coaster worth riding and that one breaks down every 10 minutes.
Its an OK amusement park, if it werent for Xcelerator thered be no reason to ever go back.
I have been going to Knott's for over 30 years,,I am 83 now and still love those rides,,Ilove the Over The fAlls and The Old Mine Ride,,and train..in fact ,,I love them all,,I don't go on the coaster because of the jerky movements,, I would sure love to, Knott's is a well kept park and the people who work there were so gracious and helpful to me,,and patient, I love Disneyland but it is too much walking,,Knott's is just right for all ,,and I love to watch the shows too,,and you will love the old fashioned theme of years gone by,,,I would definitely recommend this lovely park to all,,
