Restaurants · Carrickfergus
A busy spot in the heart of Carrickfergus that manages to feel welcoming with children in tow — high chairs, a kids' menu, buggy access and outdoor seating, plus free parking in the car park opposite (free after 6pm and all day Sunday). Food arrives quickly even when the place is packed, and the staff are accommodating: one family asked for a smaller portion of fish and chips and got it without fuss. The seafood chowder, lasagne, scampi and fish and chips all get praise, and the Early Bird menu keeps a main around £8. Two things worth knowing: there's live music downstairs some nights and it gets loud and buzzy, and the upstairs dining room is the calmer choice. Sunday lunches are popular, so book.
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.
Generous Italian plates and lovely views, with staff who make a fuss of children — book ahead, as weekends get busy.
