Pub · Bristol
Sunday lunch is the thing to come for here — beef and roast potatoes done properly, veg not boiled to death, around £12.50 and generous with it, with pigs in blankets closer to full-sized sausages. It's a big, plain pub where five adults and two children's meals come in under £90, and outside peak times there's room to park a pram beside the table without blocking a walkway. High chairs and a kids' menu are there, buggy access is easy and parking is free. Worth knowing: when it fills up the kitchen slows right down, and forty-minute waits on fish and chips have caught people out — so aim for an early or off-peak sitting if you've got hungry children. Staff are generally friendly and food normally arrives hot and quickly enough.

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.
