Cafés · Worcester
Right by the new bridge over the Severn, this is the kind of stop that works after a river walk or a morning at Pitchcroft — free car park opposite, though it fills up on sunny days. Buggy access is straightforward and there's a kids' menu and high chairs, but the room gets busy and loud at peak times, so the outdoor tables are the calmer bet with children (and dogs, who get their own beds and bowls). Breakfast is the draw: generous vegetarian plates, the bubble and squeak potato cake, crispy streaky bacon, porridge topped with honeycomb, fruit and nuts. Service is quick even when it's packed, and the staff are unhurried and friendly with families. Prices sit a little above average, and the black pepper can be heavy-handed — worth mentioning if your children are fussy.
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.
