Restaurant · Gatwick
Getting in is straightforward — step-free access means you can push the buggy right through the door rather than folding it on the doorstep, and high chairs are ready when you sit down. There's a kids' menu, so no negotiating over side plates, and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them. It tends to be on the quiet side, which suits a calmer meal but does mean a loud toddler will carry, so outdoor seating is handy on a decent day. Worth booking ahead, and expect mid-range prices.
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.
