The Frying Squad Balloo | Fish and Chip Shop of the Year 2023
Bangor fish and chip shop with a kids' menu, high chairs, step-free buggy access and gluten-free options.
Indian takeaway · Bangor, County Down
Curry night with young children usually means either eating early at home or braving somewhere loud, and this Bangor spot sidesteps both — there's a kids' menu, high chairs, and level access from the door, so a buggy and a hungry toddler are no obstacle. It tends to be quiet rather than bustling, which suits an early family dinner when you'd rather hear each other than shout. Vegan and gluten-free dishes mean fussy eaters or allergy families aren't stuck with plain rice. It's worth booking ahead, and at around ££ it's an easy midweek treat.

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.
