Café · Chester
Lively is the word for this Chester café and bakery, which is good news if your toddler is going through a loud phase — a bit of chatter and clatter means nobody's turning round. High chairs and a kids' menu are both sorted, so you can walk in with a small one and not have to think about it in advance. Step-free access means the buggy comes in with you rather than being folded at the door, and there's outdoor seating if you'd rather let them wriggle in the fresh air. Vegan and gluten-free options are on hand too, which helps if someone in the family eats differently.

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.
