Restaurants · Ilfracombe
Right on the quay in Ilfracombe, this one earns its harbour views — the inside is done out like a smuggler's cave, with nautical bits and pieces hanging from the walls and ceiling, which tends to keep children busy while you wait for food. It's a small place that fills up fast and doesn't open until the afternoon, so book if you can; walk-ins are often taken, but expect a wait at weekends. High chairs and a kids' menu are there, and buggy access is fine. Service is friendly and unfussy — one family asked to skip a side and the plates still came out full. The seafood is the thing: fat garlic prawns, cod and chips, the Sunday carvery. Portions are generous, prices fair for the quality, though a few dishes land better than others.
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.
A relaxed Ilfracombe restaurant with a kids' menu and high chairs, making it an easy pick for a family meal out.
