The Royal Oak
Pub in Bristol — 4.7★ (212 Google reviews).

British · Bristol
Bristol families settle in easily here — buggy access, high chairs and a kids' menu are all sorted, and there's outdoor seating for when the wooden-tabled dining room feels close. The welcome is genuinely warm; the team are attentive and quick with suggestions if you're new to the menu, which helps when children are restless. Sausages are the reason to come: pork, leek and stilton with creamy champ or mash and a dark, deeply savoury gravy, alongside daily specials and generous portions. The cheese soufflé and tender deep-fried squid start things well, and the sticky toffee pudding and rhubarb crumble are worth staying for. Vegan and vegetarian options are on hand. It's a popular Clifton spot, so book ahead — one visitor found their table set for one — and Sunday roast trimmings can be hit and miss.

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.
