Set back from the road in its own grounds, this hotel dining room is a gentler proposition than most Workington evenings out — quiet enough to hear each other, roomy enough to park a buggy without apologising, with free parking outside and a few outdoor tables for warmer days. High chairs and a kids' menu are on hand, and the staff are consistently described as warm and attentive, the sort who look after everything without fuss. The kitchen shines on Cumbrian classics with a twist: featherblade of beef, cornfed chicken supreme, and sticky toffee pudding that's worth the extra course. Bread and hummus or olives to share buys you ten minutes of peace while the little ones settle. Prices sit above pub-lunch level and portions are elegant rather than enormous, so hungry teens may want pudding. Sunday lunches have been hit and miss — dinner is the safer bet.

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.
