Zsl London Zoo, The Garden Room

Hidden away in Regent's Park, London Zoo is a popular attraction that offers a solid day out for families and groups. Setting aside the debate over zoos themselves, it easily provides a few hours of good entertainment, provided the animals are active and cooperative. Highlights include the impressive Africa zone and the Monkey zone, where you feel like you are walking right through their natural habitat. Admission prices are reasonable, and there is a great variety of food and drink options across different price ranges. On the downside, the facilities could be improved—specifically with larger accessible restrooms—and having the exit pass directly through the gift shop can be tricky to navigate with kids. Overall, if you enjoy zoos and are visiting with a group, it’s well worth a trip.

I would not reccomend going for night at the zoo, I am very spoiled with the zoo by me so to be fair, my expectations were very high. There were too many tickets sold, you couldn't walk anywhere without bumping into someone, there wasn't really live music, it was just one guy sometimes playing songs. Every line for food/drinks was very long, and the drinks were very highly priced. I just think for this being paid entry, and the lack of animals and space for not only humans, but animals (truly they do not have enough room in those exhibits) it was a disappointment. It had lovely exhibits (aside from the size) but a lack of viewing areas, there were too many trees in the way to see any animals. I do like the vendors, and the interactive areas of the zoo, and how they paid homage to the countries the animals came from.
