The Lock Up
A Bristol favourite for Sunday roasts, with a kids' menu, high chairs, buggy access and free parking — book a front table.

Restaurants · Bristol
A proper Bristol cafe find, and cheap enough that a family lunch here won't sting — around a fiver gets you a decent plate, and the huge breakfast with a coffee comes in at about a tenner. Portions are big enough that one Spanish omelette can feed a parent and a toddler between them. There's ample seating and space to get a pram in, high chairs, a kids' menu and free parking, plus outdoor tables when the weather plays along. The air conditioning is genuinely good, which matters when you're wrangling a hot, cross child. Staff greet you at the door and ask what you'd like to drink before you've sat down. The veggie breakfast, the bubble and squeak and the Turkish menemen all get particular praise; one parent calls it "a real hidden gem".

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.
