Indian · Newcastle upon Tyne
You can walk in with a buggy here without hunting for a step or a ramp, and there are high chairs waiting rather than a chair balanced on cushions. There's a kids' menu, so the children have something ordered before they lose interest in the poppadoms, and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them. It's a lively room, which works in your favour — nobody will notice a toddler having a moment. Worth ringing ahead to book, and there's outdoor seating if you'd rather be outside.
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.
Cosy cycling-themed café with sofas, a log burner, generous breakfasts and pint mugs of tea — but arrive by 10am at weekends.
