Pub · Southampton
A quiet pub is a rare find when you're out with children, and that's what you get here — low noise levels mean a fussing toddler won't feel like the loudest thing in the room, and you can actually finish a conversation. There's a kids' menu and high chairs, so little ones are properly catered for rather than tolerated, and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them. Step-free access and free parking take the strain out of arriving with a buggy, and outdoor seating gives restless children somewhere to be. Worth booking ahead.
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.
