Bar & grill · Bristol
A big pub on the edge of Yate that families slot into easily — pram-friendly inside, high chairs, a kids' menu, and a huge car park where nobody seems to struggle for a space (just tap your registration into the machine at the bar). Sizzling mains often run at 40% off through the app, and the Sunday roast is the thing to come for: beef that falls apart, Yorkshires, proper gravy, with pigs in blankets and cauliflower cheese as extras. Order at the bar or from your table, which helps when someone's melting down. Food arrives hot and the staff take big group bookings and menu tweaks in their stride. There's a beer garden, front seating, a pool table and machines. It is a proper local pub, though — the bar can get loud and sweary in the evenings.
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.
