Restaurant · Cardiff
Sunday lunch is the reason most families end up here, and it lives up to the fuss — several people call the roast the finest they've had in a pub for years, and two chefs in one party agreed. It's a proper country pub inside: cosy, relaxed, low-key rather than boisterous, with a quiet beer garden that's one of the calmer places to let children stretch their legs. High chairs and a kids' menu are sorted, buggy access is easy, and staff are young, attentive and genuinely accommodating — one family arriving with a wheelchair found nothing was a problem. Beyond the roast, the homemade chorizo and boar pie and the Welsh rarebit get real praise. Two snags: parking is free but the car park fills on busy Sunday lunchtimes, and the menu leans seasonal rather than traditional pub staples. Book ahead for Sundays.

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.
