Bar & grill · Bangor, County Down
Bangor's Esplanade suits a mixed-age table well — there's a kids' menu and high chairs for the youngest, while older children get the run of a proper grill menu alongside the adults. Step-free access means you can get a buggy in without hunting for someone to hold a door, and outdoor seating gives you somewhere to go when a toddler needs a change of scene. It's a lively room rather than a hushed one, so ordinary child noise won't stand out. Gluten-free options are available, and it's worth booking ahead.

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.
