The Shepherds Rest
A friendly Nottingham pub with outdoor seating and a solid 4.4 rating, easygoing and well-priced for a family visit.

Pub · Nottingham
A Nottingham carvery that young families come back to week after week, and the draw is the roast — gammon and turkey that people describe as properly tender, good Yorkshire puddings, and a genuinely wide spread of veg (red cabbage, root veg mash, sprouts, carrots, peas). Worth knowing the veg can arrive on the cool side by the time you sit down. Beyond the carvery there's a full menu, and the pizzas get real praise for the price. Staff come up again and again as warm and patient — walking people through allergy ingredients on an iPad, moving tables closer to the toilets, checking back mid-meal. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, outdoor seating, buggy access and free parking. One family calls it "a weekly favourite". Skip the delivery apps — orders arrive with items missing.

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.
