Family · Polegate
Turning up with a toddler here takes very little forethought — there are high chairs, a kids' menu, and free parking, so you can get out of the car with a buggy and go straight in without hunting for a meter. Step-free access means the buggy comes in with you rather than being folded at the door. Vegan and gluten-free choices cover the fussier or trickier eaters in the group, and there's outdoor seating when someone needs a change of scene. It tends to be on the quiet side, and booking ahead is worth doing.

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.
