Cafés · Bourne
Old-world charm in the middle of Bourne, and the sort of café where a pram isn't a problem and nobody minds a bit of noise from the table in the corner. High chairs are there, there's a kids' menu, vegan options, and free parking, which takes the stress out of the arrival. Breakfasts and the afternoon tea get the warmest praise — a good spread of sandwiches, a proper selection of cakes, and tea poured from bone china — while the burgers come with fresh salad and properly cooked chips. Dogs get a bowl of water and a bit of sausage. Two honest caveats: it's on the pricey side, and everything is cooked fresh in a small, very busy kitchen, so weekends fill up and food takes its time. Book ahead if you can. One regular says they've "never had a bad experience here."
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.
