Cafés · Bristol
Breakfast is the reason to come, and there's proper room to do it with children in tow — the upstairs floor is big, with wide windows and morning sun, and it's roomy enough for a whole group. High chairs and a kids' menu are there, plus vegan options, and the back outdoor area is the calm spot when you need it: shaded, quiet, easy for a pram. The full English gets devoured, the hash browns have a small cult following, and the blueberry pancakes and flat whites are worth the trip. Staff are warm and remember your order. Two honest snags: tables are packed close together and it fills with students on laptops, so weekend lunchtimes get noisy, and you order via a QR code rather than at the counter. Go early and it's lovely.
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.
