Restaurants · Aberaeron
Pulling off the A487 with children in tow, this Aberaeron spot makes life easy: parking is straightforward and free, buggies get in without a fight, and there's a play centre and farm shop right next door for when everyone's had enough of sitting. Food comes out fast and piping hot, which matters when someone's melting down — the fish and chips gets particular praise for light, crisp batter, and the Moody Muffin at brunch has a following. Portions are generous and prices reasonable for what you get. There's a proper choice of seating, including outdoor tables and a dog-friendly bar where you can still order food, plus an upstairs room that suits bigger groups. Staff are warm and helpful. Cake is a strong point — the rhubarb bakewell and the chocolate, date and pecan torte both earn devotion, though the cheesecake divides opinion.

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.
