Fish & chips · Chesterfield
A proper sit-down chippy rather than a takeaway counter, and portions are the thing people mention most — cod and haddock with chips cooked properly, calamari and whitebait as starters, chicken pie with mushy peas and gravy, plus burgers if a child won't touch fish. There's a kids' menu, high chairs and free parking, though the car park isn't big and fills up at meal times, so booking ahead is the safer bet. Buggy access is fine and there's outdoor seating for warmer days. Table service is friendly and quick, and the young staff get a lot of praise for patience and politeness. One caution: stick to eating in — delivery has let people down badly, with food arriving late and battered. Tea, coffee and a bar for the grown-ups too.

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.
