Gastropub · Edinburgh
Tucked out in Murrayfield rather than the city centre, this place turns out to be a surprisingly easy one with children in tow — free parking outside, buggy access, high chairs and a kids' menu, plus outdoor seating when everyone needs air. The room is modern and relaxed rather than hushed, so a bit of noise won't feel out of place. What lifts it is the cooking and the care: a two-course fixed-price lunch that people call exceptional value, a much-loved burger, beetroot and feta salad with candied pecans, sea bream with pistou, and a proper full breakfast on Sunday mornings. Staff are attentive without hovering and handle dietary requests carefully — one family with a vegan in the party noticed the detail even down to dessert. Two snags: book ahead, and check breakfast and lunch times before you set off.
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.
