Kendal spot with a kids' menu, high chairs, step-free buggy access and gluten-free options, at moderate noise.

Indian · Kendal
Getting in is straightforward — step-free access means you can push a buggy through without lifting or manoeuvring, and high chairs are ready when you arrive. There's a kids' menu, so children who won't touch a curry still have something to order, and gluten-free options are available if that's a consideration in your family. It's a quiet room rather than a bustling one, which suits a calm early dinner but means a loud toddler will be noticed. Worth booking ahead, and at ££ it won't stretch the budget.

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.
