Côte Cardiff Central
City-centre French brasserie with kids' menu, high chairs and outdoor tables — lovely sea bream and lemon tart, but pricey and slow when busy.

Restaurant · Cardiff
Bottomless brunch and tapas are what most people come for here, and the deal is genuinely good value — one group of two paid around £17 each for three rounds of sharing plates, with the halloumi and chicken enchilada the standouts, plus free nachos while they decided. Portions are generous and the nachos with pulled pork come as a sharing board big enough to split. Staff are attentive and quick to check in, which helps when you've got children waiting. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, vegan options, buggy access and outdoor seating. Worth knowing: Saturday nights can get stretched — one group of six waited 45 minutes for drinks — so book ahead and aim for a quieter slot if you want a calm lunch rather than a lively, rugby-on-the-screens sort of afternoon.

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.
