Emberwood

About Emberwood

Tucked inside the St Francis Hotel, this is a proper sit-down dinner place rather than a casual family stop — but the team make it work with children in tow. High chairs, a kids' menu and level buggy access mean you're not wrestling anything up steps, and there's outdoor seating for when someone needs air. Food is the draw: sourdough with whipped butter that people go back for, a lentil and garlic soup made for dipping, and a beef shin pie one visitor rates among the finest in the country — though the pastry is made fresh to order, so it's a 30–40 minute wait. Portions are generous enough that starters are optional. Vegan options are available. Worth knowing: service can get stretched on busy Saturday nights, so book and go early with little ones.
