Fine Dining · Peterborough
A thatched old building on the edge of Peterborough, and inside it a kitchen doing genuinely serious cooking — scallops, beef cooked exactly right, plates that look like small works of art, and a lot of the produce grown on the grounds. Set expectations first: this is special-occasion territory rather than a rowdy Saturday lunch, the tasting menus run long and the prices are high, and the room is quiet and softly decorated. There are high chairs and a kids' menu, buggy access, outdoor seating and free parking, so an older child who'll sit happily through several courses is properly looked after. The team are attentive without hovering and will work around allergies and health needs, and the cleanliness extends even to the outdoor toilets. One parent called it "worth every penny" — book ahead, and go à la carte if you'd rather pick your own dishes.
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.
