Pub · Bristol
Tucked into a Bristol neighbourhood with a Sherwood Forest theme running through it, this one leans cosy rather than sprawling — a proper local where the staff are consistently warm and quick behind the bar even when it's heaving. The banh mi are the reason to come: the crispy chilli chicken version gets rave notices, the bread is spot on, and there's a rotating line-up of Bristol craft beer for whoever isn't driving. A kids' menu, high chairs and outdoor seating make lunchtimes workable, and buggy access is sorted. Worth knowing: it fills up fast for events — crisp tastings, comedy nights, spoken word — and one family found it "so busy" they headed upstairs, which worked fine. The toilets have had grumbles. Come early or midweek and it's a relaxed, genuinely friendly stop.
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.
