Pub · Cardiff
A big Cardiff pub that handles families and large groups without fuss — one table of 22 came for a 60th and all the meals landed together. Free parking out front, buggy access, high chairs and a kids' menu mean you can arrive without a plan and still get sat down. Portions are generous, the food is well cooked, and staff are patient and quick with a smile even when the place is heaving. Two honest snags: it gets genuinely packed on discount days and at weekends, and when it's that busy food can take a while, so book if you're coming with children who won't wait. The interior is showing its age in places. There's also a function room upstairs if you're planning a birthday.
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.
