You have to take your passport everywhere anyhow.
No you don't.
Correct. Lived here since September and my passport (and visa attached) is well and truly kept hidden away, if I lose it, I'm fucked! My driving licence is with me always though (and finally just applied for an American licence.)
Even at the grand old age of 49 I still get asked to show it in certain bars in Boston.
As for the Mad Hatter (and many other bars) if you are having a meal, kids are allowed in, no probs.
I was there when Lakey came with the trophy the other week, top night, loads of kids and a very young baby too!
I really wouldn't buy your 19 year old drinks though. I know it sounds pathetic, but they really are anally strict over here regarding buying alcohol. In my small town they only had ''liquor stores'' until a year ago - no bars were allowed, but they've just chilled on that one, but there are still more gun shops than bars, lets put it that way!
If you and your lad walk in the bar, and you ask for two beers or whatever, they will ask to see both ID's.
Enjoy the trip
