About The Dolphin Inn

A quiet pub tends to be a relief with children — no shouting over a crowd, no bracing yourself when someone gets restless. This one in Banbury covers the practical side too: high chairs and a kids' menu mean you can arrive with a toddler and not think about it in advance, and gluten-free options are there if someone in your group needs them. Step-free access means the buggy comes in with you rather than being folded at the door, and there's outdoor seating when the small ones need air. It rates 4.5 from 96 people, at mid-range prices.
