A roadside stop on the A303 that turns out to be a genuinely lovely place to feed everyone — 1970s orange lamps, booth seating and a view, with plenty of room inside so a pram isn't a problem and free parking right there. Breakfast is the thing: fluffy pancakes, big full Englishes, the Streaky Bacon Bun, and portions large enough that families are surprised by the price. Food arrives fast, which matters with a hungry toddler, and the staff are patient and happy to tweak dishes for allergies — the gluten-free and vegan options (burger, carrot cake) get real praise. There's a kids' menu, high chairs and outdoor seating, and milkshakes and sundaes for afters. One parent calls it "a must stop on our way down to Cornwall". Busy holiday weekends can slow the kitchen a little.
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.
