Family-Friendly Dining at the Courthouse: What Parents Can Expect

We get it — eating out with kids isn’t always easy.

You want somewhere relaxed, welcoming, and quick enough to keep little ones happy without sacrificing the quality of the food. That’s where Courthouse Hotel Smythesdale steps in.

Whether you’re dining with toddlers, teens, or the whole extended family, we’ve made sure your experience is simple, stress-free, and satisfying for everyone.


A Venue That Actually Welcomes Families

You won’t get eye-rolls or awkward stares here.

We know that families are at the heart of our community, so we’ve created a space where kids are genuinely welcome.

There’s room to move, friendly staff who don’t mind a bit of noise, and a layout that works whether you need a high chair, a pram space, or a corner table for colouring-in.


Food That Works for Everyone

We don’t do microwave nuggets or token kids’ menus.

At Courthouse, our children’s meals are made with the same quality ingredients as our main menu — just sized down for younger appetites.

And if you’ve got picky eaters? No stress. Our team is always happy to make small adjustments where we can.


Quick Service, Flexible Bookings

We know timing matters when you’re dining with little ones.

Our kitchen runs smoothly, our floor staff move fast, and we make sure you’re never waiting too long — especially during lunch or early dinner sittings.

You can book online, call ahead, or just walk in. We’ll always do our best to find a spot.


Family Catch-Ups, Birthdays & More

Planning a casual family gathering? The Courthouse is set up for larger groups and family celebrations, too.

We can reserve sections, create group dining options, and make your event relaxed and enjoyable — with zero stress about who’s cooking or cleaning.


Eat Local. Laugh Loud. Bring the Kids.

The Courthouse is your local pub — but better.

Fresh food, friendly faces, and a venue that treats your family like part of ours.
