Chicken · Basingstoke
Fried chicken with the practical bits sorted — high chairs are there, and there's a kids' menu, so you can arrive with a toddler and not have to think about it beforehand. Step-free access means a buggy rolls straight in rather than being folded and hauled. Gluten-free options are on offer too, which helps if someone in the family needs them. It's a moderately noisy spot at around ££ a head, so a bit of chatter or a dropped fork won't stand out.
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.
