Restaurant · Braintree
Getting through the door here is straightforward — step-free access means you can push a buggy straight in rather than folding it on the doorstep, and high chairs are ready when you sit down. There's a kids' menu, so you won't be negotiating over a side of chips, and gluten-free options if someone in your group needs them. It's a lively room, which is good news if your toddler is having a loud day. Worth booking ahead, and at ££ it's a sensible mid-range choice in Braintree.
