The Castle Cold Ash
A warm, wallet-friendly Thatcham pub with outdoor seating and a 4.5-star rating — an easy, relaxed spot for families.

Pub · Thatcham
Turning up here with a toddler takes very little planning — there are high chairs, a kids' menu, and step-free access if you're pushing a buggy in. Free parking helps when you're unloading small people and all their gear, and outdoor seating gives you somewhere to go when someone needs to wriggle. It tends to be on the quiet side, so it suits a calmer meal rather than a boisterous one, and gluten-free options are available if that's something you're working around. 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.
