In the toilets there is a big red button next to a sign that says, “Push it...What’s the worst that can happen?”

When the button is pressed disco lights on the ceiling turn on and ‘Stayin’ Alive’ by Bee Gees starts playing.

General manager Hannah Castle said, “Some of the kids come in for the toilets and their parents will go in there and have a dance with them.

Miss Castle said the feature, which cost around £600, was dreamt up by owner Alex Coombes.

The general manager added, “He thought it was a really nice, quirky asset to make things a bit brighter.

“It was to bring brightness to people’s lives.”
