Family · Banbridge
Tucked away in Jinglers Court just off Banbridge's Main Street, this is the kind of place families travel for — some drive down from Newtownabbey or break a Dublin journey for it. Steak is the reason: grass-fed, cooked on the stone at your table, and the team will happily talk children and nervous first-timers through how it works. Portions are generous, sides land properly done — crisp chips, freshly fried onion rings — and starters come out hot rather than trailing behind. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, buggy access and free parking, so the logistics look after themselves. Beyond steak, the Chinese chicken curry, salted chilli chicken, lasagne and roast dinners all get named repeatedly. Wine can run pricey, and with a reputation like this it's worth booking. One parent calls it simply their daughter's favourite place to eat.
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.
