Restaurant · Stamford

A grand day out for the family doesn't have to mean improvising lunch, and this Stamford spot has the practical bits sorted: high chairs, a kids' menu and step-free access for a buggy, so you can arrive with a toddler and simply sit down. Gluten-free options are available too, which helps if someone in the group needs them. Free parking takes the sting out of unloading small children and all their paraphernalia. The noise level sits at moderate, so a chatty child or a grumble at the table won't feel out of place.

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.
