Restaurants · Canterbury
A village pub with rooms just outside Canterbury, this one earns the drive — one family came from London two hours away just for lunch. The garden is lovely for a drink before you sit down, and there's proper free parking, which takes the stress out of arriving with car seats and bags. The kitchen is the real draw: beef tartare, crispy lamb, rib-eye steak, and vegetarian and vegan cooking that gets genuine praise rather than polite nods. The menu is long enough that fussy eaters and adults both find something, and there's a kids' menu and high chairs. Staff are warm and unhurried — a party of nineteen with pre-orders was handled without fuss. It's a smart, grown-up room rather than a rowdy one, so it suits a proper sit-down meal more than a quick refuel, and booking is wise.

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.
