Restaurant · Plymouth
Perched above Plymouth Sound with a terrace that looks straight out over the water, this is a genuinely lovely spot to park a pram and let children watch the boats — jet skis, ferries, paddle boards and yachts all drift past, which buys parents a surprising amount of peace. There's a kids' menu, high chairs and no steps at the entrance, though the approach slope and tight corners can be awkward with a wide buggy. Coffee and cake is the easy option on a walk along Madeira Road, and the toilets are clean and tidy. The team gets consistent praise for being warm and accommodating, especially with family celebrations. Two honest notes: it's often busy with private events, so ring ahead, and the terrace handrail sits right at eye level when you're seated. One family called the setting "stunning".

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.
