Tiny, hugely popular Kirkby Stephen café with generous jacket potatoes, great scones and warm owners — arrive early, tables go fast.

Restaurant · Kirkby Stephen
Moderate noise levels mean a chatty toddler or a bit of cutlery-clattering won't turn heads, so you can relax a little rather than shushing through the whole meal. There are high chairs and a kids' menu, which takes the guesswork out of turning up with little ones, and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them. Step-free access means you can get a buggy in without folding it down at the door. Mid-range prices and a 4.7 rating from nearly 700 people in this corner of Cumbria.

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.
