Cat Cafe · Birmingham
Kitty Café Birmingham is a cat café in the city centre where you can sit with a coffee while resident cats wander about, which can be a fun novelty for animal-loving kids. It sits in the mid-range (££) for price, and while no specific family features are confirmed, the relaxed café setting makes it an easy spot to pause during a day out in town.

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.
