Restaurant · Cambridge
There's a proper grown-up restaurant feel here, with tables looking out at King's College Chapel, but the kids' menu and high chairs mean you're not smuggling children in somewhere they don't belong. Food comes out fast and hot, which matters when someone's patience is running low — Sunday roast is the thing to order, with a choice of chicken, pork belly or beef, or all three on one plate. The pork crackling with apple sauce gets rhapsodised about; the rib-eye too. Staff take dietary requirements seriously, with a separate gluten-free menu and easy handling of awkward swaps, and there's a decent non-alcoholic list. Book ahead — it's busy, especially Saturday evenings and Sundays, and walking in with children in tow is a gamble. Outdoor seating helps if you need air. Portions are generous for the ££ price.
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.
