Restaurant · Norwich
Set right by the water in Norwich, this is a handsome pub with rooms, and the setting does most of the heavy lifting — families praise the play space outside, which is a genuine relief when the food is taking its time. Practical bits are sorted: kids' menu, high chairs, free parking, buggy access and outdoor tables, and it's roomy enough that a pushchair isn't a problem. The staff generally get warm words for being helpful and unhurried, and it's dog friendly too. Food is the wobble — some find it hearty and good value, others have had greasy batter, pale chips and a tough children's burger, so it's worth ordering carefully and asking for what you need. One family called the setting "beautiful" even on an off day. Book at weekends; it fills with the winter break crowd.
