Italian · Burton-on-Trent
Two hours for mains on a busy night is the snag worth knowing — one family waited that long after ordering starters and ended up taking dessert back to their hotel in boxes — so if you've got hungry children, skip the starters and say so when you sit down. The rest is genuinely lovely. Staff are quick to get you seated and watered, warm with it, and by several accounts nothing is too much trouble when you ask for something extra. Portions are generous: sea bass comes as two flaky fillets with prawns, mussels, gnocchi and broccoli, and the smoked chicken off the smoker menu gets particular praise. Mozzarella sticks with a good dip suit smaller appetites. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, vegan options, buggy access, outdoor seating and free parking, and it's mid-range for what arrives.
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.
