Gastropub · Bury Saint Edmunds
A gastropub in Bury St Edmunds with a lively hum to it, so the odd shriek or dropped fork won't feel like it's echoing round the room. There are high chairs and a proper kids' menu, plus vegan and gluten-free options, which takes the worry out of feeding a table with different needs. Step-free access means the buggy comes straight in rather than being folded and hauled, and outdoor seating gives you somewhere to go when a toddler needs to move. It's mid-range on price and worth booking ahead.
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.
