Café · Southport
A café and bakery in Southport that's set up properly for families rather than just tolerating them. There's a kids' menu and high chairs, so you can bring a toddler along without ringing ahead or packing a picnic to supplement, and gluten-free options mean a coeliac child or parent isn't stuck with a bag of crisps. Step-free access makes getting a buggy in straightforward, and the moderate noise level means a chatty two-year-old won't be the loudest thing in the room.
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.
