The Cottage Kitchen
A tiny, good-value Kendal café where nearly everything is gluten free — homemade pies, big portions, kids' menu and outdoor tables.

Thai · Kendal
Thai food in Kendal that's set up for children rather than merely tolerating them — there's a kids' menu, high chairs and step-free access, so a buggy and a toddler aren't a problem. The noise sits at a moderate level, which is the sweet spot: enough chatter that a grizzly two-year-old won't be the loudest thing in the room, but calm enough for a conversation. Vegan and gluten-free dishes mean fussy or restricted eaters are covered, and there's outdoor seating if someone needs a wriggle break. Worth booking ahead.

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.
