Pub · Glasgow
Built inside an old church in the West End, this is a striking place to bring children — high ceilings, stained glass and a bar area that's less formal than the dining room, with room for a buggy and space to people-watch while you wait. There's a kids' menu, high chairs and outdoor seating when the weather allows. The Sunday roast comes as a sharing feast and portions are generous across the board; the food is consistently the thing people praise most, a mix of traditional and modern done properly. Two honest snags: it doubles as a music and theatre venue, so check what's on before booking, and big sports fixtures mean rugby on every screen and a lot of shouting. Tables can be turned back-to-back at busy weekends, so service slows. Book, and ask what's happening that day.
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.
Bold Thai-leaning small plates near the Botanics, with a great-value lunch deal, high chairs, a kids' menu and lift access.
Quirky West End bar with ping pong, board games and a brilliant full breakfast — kid-friendly by day, loud and slow-paced at weekends.
Bright, peaceful hotel bistro with a kids' menu, high chairs and superb cakes — though service can be slow, so allow time.
