Family · Manchester
A big Brewers Fayre-style pub attached to the Premier Inn, with free parking outside and enough room inside that a group of mums can be seated together without shuffling chairs — pram access is straightforward and high chairs are on hand. There's a play area, which is the real draw for younger children on a last-minute weeknight tea. Portions are generous for the price, the menu is long and reasonably priced, and the £5 lunch mains are genuinely good value; the mixed grill platter and burgers get the most affection, though the fish and chips can arrive with soggy batter. Staff come up again and again as patient and quick to fix mistakes. Worth knowing: the deals come with fine print, so check the terms when booking, and neighbouring tables can get loud.
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.
