Pub · Liverpool
Somewhere between a proper local and an events space, this Liverpool bar has enough room to matter when you arrive with a pram — the ground floor gets busy and loud in the evenings, but there's a quieter upstairs with soft sofas and a pool table that older children will happily watch for ages. Worth knowing the seating is a mix: bench cushions round the walls, hard wooden stools everywhere else, so pick your spot before the little one settles. There's a kids' menu, high chairs and outdoor seating, and the food leans towards sharing plates and snacks — the pizzas and sandwiches get particularly warm words, and the team handle vegan, vegetarian and halal requests without fuss. Bar service can lag when it's rammed; families visiting earlier in the day report it flowing quickly and cheerfully.
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.
