Rio Brazilian Steakhouse
Step-free Sunderland steakhouse with high chairs, a kids' menu and vegan and gluten-free choices — lively, and worth booking ahead.

Restaurant · Sunderland
Expect a bit of a buzz here — it's a lively room, so a toddler having a moment won't be the loudest thing in it, which takes some pressure off. High chairs and a proper kids' menu mean you can arrive with little ones and not have to improvise, and step-free access makes getting a buggy in straightforward. Vegan and gluten-free options are on the menu too, handy if someone in the group eats differently. It's mid-range on price and worth booking ahead so you're not stood waiting with restless children.

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.
