Pub · Bristol
Tucked away in St Annes, this is the sort of local pub families end up returning to every couple of weeks. There's room to spread out inside and a back beer garden that takes the pressure off when children need to move, plus free parking and buggy access at the door. High chairs and a kids' menu are sorted, and the team are warm with children and dogs alike. Sunday roasts and the bangers and mash get the most affection, the coffee is better than it needs to be, and there are vegan and gluten-free options plus a cake and brownie counter. The Friday 3-for-£15 light bites feed two easily. Worth knowing: at £15.95 mains aren't cheap, and busy nights with live music or a BBQ mean slower service. One family calls it "a local gem".
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.
