Restaurant · Cambridge
Cambridge parents rate this one for a proper sit-down meal that still works with children in tow. It's roomier than it looks from the street — modern, clean, easy enough to get a pram past tables — with a kids' menu that goes well beyond the usual nuggets: one parent watched their one-year-old demolish a children's roast, and the Sunday trio of pork, beef and chicken with thick-skinned, fluffy roast potatoes draws real praise. Staff are attentive from the phone booking onwards, and the kitchen turns out arancini families describe as "out of this world", plus tender haddock in a light, non-greasy batter. High chairs, outdoor seating and vegan options are all covered. Worth booking, especially for weekend roasts, and be aware the toilets are small and narrow — awkward if you're changing a nappy or squeezing in with a toddler.
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.
