Restaurant · Stafford
A big, busy pub on the edge of Stafford that manages to feel special without being precious about children — there's a kids' menu, high chairs, plenty of outdoor seating and free parking, and the buggy gets in without a fight. Portions are generous and everything comes out hot and freshly cooked; the marmalade ham and Guinness croquettes get talked about, the burgers are proper beef, and one family arrived to find a card on the table for the occasion they'd mentioned when booking. Little ones get a goodie bag, which buys you a few minutes. Worth knowing: it's often full, so book, and service can slow at peak times — a wait for drinks or the bill isn't unusual. Prices sit at the higher end, and a 7.5% service charge is added automatically (removable if you ask). Skip the steak.
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.
