Steak here comes to the table on a hot volcanic stone so you finish cooking it yourself, which turns out to be brilliant entertainment for children who normally get restless waiting — and one family found the kids just as gripped watching another table attempt one of the eating challenges. Portions run from 8oz up to 16oz, the chunky chips get praised, and the brisket is singled out as properly tender (the salad is more of an afterthought). Booking is easy and changes are confirmed by email, worth doing with a bigger group, though a table of six turning up two hours early was still seated within ten minutes. Food arrives quickly, there's plenty of free parking, high chairs and a kids' menu, and one couple noted it was clean and "not loud". Dogs get water bowls and their own menu. It's on the pricey side for what it is.
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.
