Café · Grange-over-Sands
There's a lot going on here beyond lunch — an antiques barn and gift shop under the same roof — which is genuinely useful when you've got children who won't sit still for a whole meal. On busy Saturdays you may wait for a table, but they hand you a buzzer so you can wander and browse instead of hovering with a pram. Inside it's rustic and warm, with ample seating, though some tables sit in dimmer corners and you can hear creaking from the antiques floor above. The kitchen is flexible about tweaking orders, which helps with fussy eaters, and the haddock chowder, cheese scones and brisket eggs Benedict draw real praise. Staff are warm with children. Not everyone raves — one brunch landed undercooked — and Sunday dinners need booking. Free parking, high chairs, a kids' menu and good walks nearby.
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.
