'I don’t come here to enjoy other people’s children!' Should pubs and restaurants be kid-free zones?

Children were once banned from most British pubs. Some owners and customers miss ‘the good old days’ – but can they really turn back the clock?

Depends, uk licensing laws are complex... for example a pub with an area set aside for serving a substantive meal may be permitted children in those areas only if they are eating with adults.

A restaurant with a pub/bar attached, even if completely openly attached so looks exactly the same as the pub example above, will almost certainly be permitted to serve children food without an adult present (at least legally, some may have policies against that).

And those are the easiest examples.
