Bistro · South Shields
Handy for a mixed-age table, this South Shields spot has the practical bits sorted — high chairs for the little one, a kids' menu so you're not splitting an adult portion three ways, and step-free access that means the buggy comes in without a fuss. Gluten-free options are available too, which takes the worry out of feeding a child who can't eat wheat. Noise sits at a moderate level, so a bit of chatter from your table won't stand out. Booking ahead is recommended, and at ££ it's a reasonable sit-down meal rather than a treat-only occasion.

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.
