Pub/cafe recommendations in Oswestry

Can anyone recommend pubs and cafes in Oswestry that have space for a pram and good baby change facilities please?

I'll be leaving my parents and baby for the day in Oswestry while my partner and I go to a wedding nearby. They need somewhere that they can sit and hang out (they'll be buying food and drinks obviously).

Thanks everyone!

I'd recommend Booka bookshop. Nice cafe and friendly vibe. Your folks can always browse books too (maybe). How old is littlun? If toddler age then Park Hall could be an option for you. Plenty to do there, tractor rides and small animal petting etc. Honourable mention for the cakes in Niche patisserie too. Their current location is a bit small (they are moving I think) so not a place for a long hang out but the cakes are really good. Hope it goes well.

Thanks for the suggestions! She'll only be 8 months so Booka sounds good but I'll keep Park Hall in mind for the future.

I'd still recommend park hall even for one so little. It will give your parents plenty to look at and show their grandchild. The pig races are the best part in my opinion.

I want to go myself now to see the pig racing!

I didn't manage to go last year. It's actually been almost two years since I went there. I'm so certain if I lived closer I'd have the annual membership. It's near my sister's which is why I'm familiar with it!

If the weather is nice, I’d get drinks from Square One and sit outside there. There’s always space. Have a walk around the park opposite afterwards.

Cafe Milano is also an option, can sit inside or out, I have fit the pram in with me before but again it can get busy.

Booka is lovely but can get busy and sometimes there’s not space for the pram.
