Restaurant · Nottingham
Right on the canal basin, this is a handy stop before the cinema or after a wander round Nottingham, and the outside seating is where it comes into its own — calm water views, plenty of space to park a pram, and free parking so you're not feeding a meter with a toddler on your hip. High chairs and a kids' menu are sorted. The sharing nacho plate and wings go down well with a table of grazers, and the Sunday roast gets real praise — decent portions, crispy roast potatoes, and sticky toffee pudding with warm custard. Prices are reasonable for what you get. It's fairly standard pub food, though, and the burgers can land looking sparse, so stick to the crowd-pleasers. Service is friendly but can feel a bit hands-off when it's busy.
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.
Roomy, fast and genuinely good value — salad bar, free refills, free parking and staff who take allergies seriously.
Clean family rooms, free parking on site, kids' menu and high chairs — though noise carries between floors and the bar opens late.
