V-Shed - JD Wetherspoon
Budget-friendly harbourside Wetherspoon's in a converted transit shed, with dockside outdoor seating for a relaxed family bite in Bristol.

Restaurant · Bristol
A cricket net, a bar and a kids' menu is an odd combination on paper, but it works — and it works especially well with children who need something to *do*. Nobody needs to know the rules; the team walks you through the virtual game and is genuinely good with kids, roping them in to fetch balls and quietly handing out extra minutes in the nets. Sessions run long enough that you're not rushed, and screens around the venue mean older kids drift off to the football while younger ones keep swinging. Food is decent rather than the point — the fries get particular praise — though a £15 pizza once took 40 minutes, so order early. High chairs are available. Weekends tilt towards stag-and-hen energy, and there's a 12.5% service charge, so check the bill.

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.
