British · Canterbury
A steady, comfortable room where a family lunch doesn't feel like an imposition — there's space to get a pram in, high chairs, a kids' menu and a few outdoor tables when the weather plays along. The team have a nice instinct with children; one parent mentioned colouring arriving unprompted so the little one didn't get restless. Food is the draw: the mac and cheese with beef brisket, the fish pie, halloumi burgers that people talk about for weeks, and mini cinnamon donuts that are worth the extra ten minutes at the table. Breakfast comes out fast, and you can swap the beans for something else free of charge. Two honest snags — plates aren't always warmed, so hot food cools quicker than it should, and a service charge goes on the bill automatically.
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.
