Kids eat free in Solihull

The first thing worth clocking about Solihull's venues is which ones are actually open to you right now. Sizzling Pubs runs four sites here year-round, Toby Carvery covers three, and Farmhouse Inns and Stonehouse Pizza & Carvery each add one more reliable option regardless of term dates. That is a solid permanent base. Then the calendar shifts things: Las Iguanas, Zizzi, and Vintage Inns — five venues between them — only activate their kids-eat-free arrangements during school holidays. Plan around a random Tuesday in March and those options simply won't be on the table. The postcode spread is heaviest around B40 and B91, with five sites apiece, so where you are in the borough shapes the shortlist almost as much as the time of year.

Holiday-only chains in Solihull: Lounges, Marco Pierre White Steakhouse, The White Horse, Balsall Common, Zizzi. These quietly flip in for half-term and summer; outside the school holidays they drop off the list.
