Today we were wandering the high street in Long Eaton and spotted the sign for Cleaver Coffee Co. The coffee shop is situated in Butchers Bar and Steakhouse. They serve cake, coffees, tea, breakfast, lunch, that sort of thing.

The Potting Shed Café Restaurant, Lichfield
This weekend we visited the Potting Shed Café Restaurant for Keith’s godmother’s birthday celebration meal. There was 10 of us (8 adults and 2 under 2s). My mother-in-law booked it and from all accounts it was fairly easy to do.
The café/restaurant is situated in the Plant Pot Garden Centre in Lichfield.

Our little girl is showing to be quite clever and inquisitive so we’ve been looking for things to do to stimulate her little mind and help her development along. My husband suggested Eureka! as a place to take her so off we went! Its an interactive museum based in Halifax which was a fairly easy drive for us from Nottingham.

Lewinnick Lodge is a sister restaurant to The Plume of Feathers so we thought we’d book it as our final evening meal out. Again it was easy to book it online and request a high chair.

This restaurant was suggested to us in the binder provided by the hosts of our cottage so we booked it on a whim. It was helpful that it was a short drive away as well. I was able to book it very quickly on their website. I’d also requested a high chair on the online booking. They have a sister restaurant/hotel called Lewinnick Lodge.

Another attraction that was close to our cottage was the Lappa Valley Steam Railway. We thought it’d be a decent place to kill a few more hours and also give Baby H her first experience of a steam train!
