Pub · Liverpool
A proper community local that's been brought back to life, and it shows in the welcome — the staff here are the sort who tell you what offers are on, keep up with a big chaotic table without flinching, and don't blink at endless orders. Buggy access and free parking take the stress out of arriving, and there are high chairs and a kids' menu once you're in. Food comes out hot and fast, portions are bigger than the price suggests, and the burgers get the most praise — Friday's two-for-one deal especially, with chips people say arrive properly hot. It's chilled rather than hushed, and it's getting busier as word spreads. Service can wobble on a big Sunday booking, and the halloumi fries can come out greasy, but for a cheap, easy family meal it more than does the job.
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.
