Pub · St Albans
Good pick for a mixed-age group, this pub has the practical things sorted: high chairs for the littlest, a kids' menu so nobody's negotiating over a side of chips, and outdoor seating when someone needs to burn off energy between courses. Step-free access means you can wheel a buggy straight in rather than folding it up on the doorstep. It's a lively room, which is handy — a bit of background noise covers a toddler's louder moments. Booking ahead is worth it, and gluten-free options are available if that's a factor at your table.

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.
