Sunday's two courses for £19.95 is where families seem to land here, and the roast chicken comes out properly juicy with a Yorkshire pudding done the way it should be. The room is quirky but smart, with room for a pram and outdoor tables when the weather plays along, plus free parking outside. Staffing levels are generous, so food arrives fast and hot — helpful when a toddler has hit their limit — and the team are patient and genuinely warm. The nachos sharer gets the loudest praise, though prices have crept up: mains sit around £16–20 and drinks £8–10, which one parent felt was steep. Worth booking at weekends. If you're managing a food allergy, ask carefully — the kitchen shares fryers and has no separate prep area.
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.
