English · Canterbury
Solid pub-style English cooking at mid-range prices, with a proper kids' menu so children aren't stuck picking at a side plate of grown-up food. High chairs are on hand for the toddler stage, and step-free access means you can roll a buggy straight in rather than folding it at the door. Vegan and gluten-free dishes are covered too, which helps if one of yours eats differently from the rest. It's a lively room rather than a hushed one — good news if your two are chatty — and worth booking a table before you set off.
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.
