Restaurants · Melton Constable
A coaching inn in a quiet corner of North Norfolk, this one draws people back for its Sunday roasts — the pork in particular, with every element on the plate done properly. Portions and cooking are a cut above pub standard, and there's a proper kitchen behind it: pan-fried hake with a wild garlic velouté sits on the same menu as a full English that regulars rate highly. It's small inside, so the outdoor seating is useful when you've a pram in tow, and free parking takes one worry off the arrival. Staff are generally warm with children — one family remembers a server chatting away to their toddler and making the meal. Service can wobble on busy bank holidays, and the dining room isn't large, so book ahead. High chairs, a kids' menu and vegan options are all there.
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.
