A Sunday carvery here is the kind that fills a plate properly — roast potatoes and parsnips people still talk about, as much gravy as you want, and portions so big families regularly take leftovers home. Around £17 a head for food and a drink makes it manageable with children in tow. Free parking, buggy access and high chairs sort the logistics, and there's outdoor seating for warmer days plus a kids' menu and vegan options. Staff are genuinely warm — one parent waiting outside the toilets for a slow child had a team member offer to check she was alright. Beyond the roast, the sticky ribs and the apple pie get the loudest praise. It gets busy, so booking is sensible, and service quality has occasionally wobbled.
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.
