Pub · Matlock
A Pub in Matlock, Derbyshire that's set up for families rather than just tolerating them — high chairs and a kids' menu mean you can arrive with a toddler and not have to think ahead. Step-free access makes getting a buggy in straightforward, and free parking saves the usual shuffle when you've got a small one to unload. There's outdoor seating for warmer days, and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them. It tends to be on the quiet side, and booking is a good idea.
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.
