Restaurant · Liverpool
A big Liverpool pub with the kind of space that makes family lunches easy — plenty of room to park a pram beside the table, high chairs on hand, a beer garden for when everyone needs air, and free parking so you're not circling with tired children in the back. The carvery is the draw at £9.95 on weekdays and £7 on Mondays, with beef, gammon and turkey all properly cooked and the vegetables seasoned well; gluten-free eaters are unusually well looked after, and the all-you-can-eat full English with bottomless tea is worth knowing about. Portions of the extras run small, so budget for the upgrade. Staff are warm and unhurried — "nothing is ever too much trouble", say regulars — though Thursday quiz night packs the place out, so avoid it with little ones or book ahead.
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.
Roomy Liverpool pub with a long menu, quick service and patient staff — busy at lunch, so book ahead.
