Another great place if you are really hungry. American steakhouse/diner feel. the best part is at the rear of the restaurant you'll find a small cinema showing cartoons. Great for kids and means the grownups can take their time!

A very local restaurant with easy parking. spacious inside with clean lines and uncluttered feel. more modern than my other recommendations. I've been once, the food was very good and hearty. perfect for prams as heaps of space. Also looks like it caters for lots therefore unlikely to be fully booked.
