Restaurant · Gloucester
Tucked into the Docks below the gelato place, this is the kind of spot you stumble on when the obvious options have let you down — and then keep coming back to. Buggies get in easily, there are high chairs, a kids' menu, and outdoor tables by the water where you can walk off a wobble along the canal (swans nest along there in spring). Food comes out fast and the team stay good-natured even with a big, demanding table. The full English is the crowd-pleaser, black pudding add-on included, and people rave about the arancini, the haddock with curry sauce and the sticky toffee pudding. Two honest snags: portion sizes swing wildly between dishes, so ask before ordering, and vegan breakfast options are thin. Coffee's good, though oat milk costs 60p extra.
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.
