Kids eat free in Worcester

Five of Worcester's seven listed venues run their free-children arrangements all year: Côte Brasserie, Farmhouse Inns, Sizzling Pubs, Slug & Lettuce, and Toby Carvery will have you covered whether it's a wet Tuesday in February or the long tail of August. The other two — Zizzi and Harvester — activate only during school breaks, so a midterm dinner plan is worth checking before you commit. Geographically the seven sites cluster across three postcode pockets: WR1 holds three, WR4 and WR5 two apiece. That spread means most of the city is reasonably served, and the mix of casual Italian, carvery, and brasserie dining is genuinely varied. Seven chains, seven sites. No chain doubled up.

Holiday-only chains in Worcester: Harvester, Zizzi. These quietly flip in for half-term and summer; outside the school holidays they drop off the list.
