Restaurants · Marlborough
A Wiltshire village pub where the cooking is genuinely the point — the kitchen leans into game and seasonal menus, and the Sunday roast has a real following, with beef cooked properly pink, vegetables that still have bite and freshly baked Yorkshires. The garden is lovely on a warm day and easy with a pram, and there's free parking, so you're not circling a village lane. Staff are notably warm with small children; one family with a one-year-old found the team thoughtful and welcoming throughout. High chairs and a kids' menu are there when you need them. Be aware it's not cheap — roughly £29 for a roast, with sides and extras charged on top — and it's popular enough that booking is sensible, especially for Sunday lunch.

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.
