Weekend brunch here fills up fast, so book — it's a big, bright room with proper design to it, and there's space to park a pram without blocking anyone. Staff are the strength: patient, quick to notice when something's wrong, and genuinely careful about allergies (a lactose intolerance noted on a booking got checked twice before the food came). Pancakes divide people — some plates arrive uneven, but ask and they'll bring a fresh one without fuss. The ultimate brunch burger is the reliable order, with avocado, bacon, a fried egg and good salted chips, and the big brunch does a solid all-day fry-up. High chairs and a kids' menu are there, vegan options too. Portions on the shakshuka run small and drinks are priced steeply for what they are.
A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
