The White Lion
Quiet St Albans spot with high chairs, a kids' menu, outdoor seating and vegan and gluten-free choices; booking advised.
Pub · St Albans
A proper sit-down pub in St Albans that's set up for children without making a fuss about it — high chairs, a kids' menu and step-free access mean you can get in with a buggy and a toddler and just order. It's on the quieter side, which suits a meal where you'd rather hear each other than shout, though it does mean a loud two-year-old will be noticed. There's outdoor seating for when everyone needs air, and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them. Worth booking ahead rather than turning up.

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.
