Steak house · Northampton
Turning up with a toddler here doesn't take much thought — there are high chairs waiting and a kids' menu, so nobody has to negotiate over a grown-up plate. Buggy access is step-free, which spares you the folding-and-hoisting routine at the door before you've even sat down. Gluten-free options are available if someone in your group needs them, and there's outdoor seating when the weather cooperates or a restless child needs a change of scene. It's a moderately noisy room, so a bit of toddler chatter won't stand out, though booking ahead is worth doing.
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.
