Chilli Padi
Tiny, buzzing Malaysian spot where fast, generous, seriously flavourful food lands before anyone melts down — high chairs and kids' menu included.

Thai · Newcastle upon Tyne
Thai food at a moderate volume, so a bit of clatter from your table won't stand out. There's a kids' menu and high chairs, which takes the guesswork out of bringing a toddler along, and gluten-free options if someone in your family needs them. Getting in is step-free, so you can push a buggy straight through rather than folding it at the door. It's mid-range at around ££, and worth booking ahead so you're not standing about with hungry children.

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.
