Really want some help:
I am trying to organise some drinks with family and friends for tomorrow night but can't really think of any child friendly places wanting to go for an hour or so at around 8pm if anyone can get back as soon as possible that would be fab cheers in advance taz :D

The Forum was good when we went, surprisingly, but that was on a Saturday afternoon.

We've taken our kids to the forum in the day too and it was great but I reckon by 8pm you'd be lucky to find any pub that would be happy having kids in. A restaurant might be better or somewhere like the wig and pen that is a restaurant as well as a pub maybe.

I'd try a restaurant rather than a pub. Be surprised if there are that many pubs that will let kids in after 8, but places like Cafe Rouge, Zizzi, Strada etc may let you just have a table for drinks with the kids.
