Restaurant · Edinburgh
Set beside the canal path in Colinton, this is a smarter sort of place that still works with children in tow — level, easy entry for prams and wheelchairs, high chairs, a kids' menu and free parking outside. The room feels upmarket without being stiff, and Sunday brunch comes with jazz playing quietly in the background. Families rave about the fish and chips, the king prawns and sea bass, the steak pie and the haggis, with sticky toffee pudding or panna cotta to finish; the two-course fixed price menu is good value and vegetarian and vegan options are easy to find. Portions can run small, so a side of fries helps. Service is usually warm and quick, though it can slow when they're busy, and it isn't a cheap night out.
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.
