Barbecue · Stockton-on-Tees
Weekend lunch with a toddler who won't sit still is the sweet spot here — there's indoor soft play, so the meal doesn't have to end the moment the cutlery gets boring. It's a lively room rather than a hushed one, which means a grizzly baby won't feel like the loudest thing in the building. High chairs and a kids' menu are sorted, there's outdoor seating when the weather plays along, and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them. Step-free access makes getting a buggy in straightforward, 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.
