Breakfast is the thing to come for here, and it's a genuinely easy one with children — the room is spacious and spotlessly clean, so there's space to park a pram without blocking anyone, and the atmosphere stays calm even on a busy Sunday. Staff seat people quickly and are warm about it, which matters when someone small is already fraying. The full breakfast, bacon sandwiches, kippers with rye bread and the prawn rolls all get raved about, and the scones and cakes are worth saving room for; there are vegan options and dairy-free coffees too. High chairs, a kids' menu, outdoor seating and plenty of reasonably priced parking nearby. One snag: there have been complaints about a restrictive toilet policy, so it's worth asking on arrival.
