Restaurant · Bristol
A relaxed, high-ceilinged room with a proper terrace out front, and it works better for a slow family brunch than a hurried one. Buggies get in without a fight, there are high chairs and a kids' menu, and parking is free, so the whole arrival is low-stress. Breakfast is where it shines — homemade hash browns and baked beans, poached eggs, good coffee and cake — and the cauliflower "wings", scotch egg and ham and cheese croquettes have their devotees. Plenty of vegetarian and vegan choices too. Two of you can eat well for under £40. Staff are warm and genuinely welcoming with families, and dogs are welcome, with blankets offered outside if it's chilly. One honest caveat: it gets busy and food can be slow, so book and don't come with famished, fraying children.
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.
