Restaurants · Cookstown
Italian food in Cookstown that punches above its postcode — pizzas and pasta that regulars reckon would hold their own in Dublin, and a menu wide enough that fussy eaters and grandparents are both sorted. Big groups work well here: parties of six and eleven have been fed without fuss, though you'll want to book for dinner. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, buggy access and free parking, plus outdoor seating when the weather plays along. Staff explain dishes properly and are generous with time, which helps when small people are restless. Portions are hearty and prices fair for what lands — the Sunday carvery gets particular praise. Gluten-free pizza bases are done well too. Not flawless: the odd off night gets mentioned, so it's worth ordering the classics.
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.
