Pub · Cardiff
Right in the middle of Cardiff, this is an older city-centre pub that's kept its character — magic mirrors that flip into TVs for the rugby, a beer garden that fills up the moment the sun's out, and a team that's warm with everyone who walks in. Food comes out fast and generous, which matters when someone small has hit their limit; the chicken tikka and the Sunday plates get particular praise, and prices are fair for the portions. There's a kids' menu and high chairs. The honest snag: tables are few and far between, so at weekends or around an international at the Principality it'll be standing room and loud — go early, or midweek afternoon when it's calm. Ordering runs through an app, though the bar staff will happily walk you through it.

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.
