Family dining off the menu in Bristol

Family dining and romantic meals with partners are off the menu in Bristol, with just 50 per cent of parents managing to spare a measly half an hour to eat together.

When it comes to eating meals with just their partners, 17 per cent of Bristol couples never manage to find time to achieve this, a higher number than other major cities including Manchester, Leeds and even London.

The findings come from research by Dolmio, who found that only seven per cent of parents feel they manage to spend enough quality time together with their partner.
