O'Connell's
Cheerful, budget-friendly pub with a kids' menu, high chairs, outdoor seating and step-free access for buggies.

Restaurant · Middlesbrough
Handy for a weekday lunch out with the kids in Middlesbrough, where a kids' menu and high chairs mean a toddler is properly catered for rather than an afterthought. The buggy access is step-free, so you're not hauling wheels up a step at the door, and there's outdoor seating for warmer days or when a child needs a bit of air. Vegan and gluten-free options make it workable if someone in the group eats differently. It's a lively room, which is good news if your two aren't the quiet sort — mid-range prices, and a 4.4 average from over 300 ratings.

A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
