Japanese · Milton Keynes
Getting in is straightforward — step-free access means you can push the buggy in rather than folding it at the door, and high chairs are ready when you need one. There's a kids' menu, so ordering for a fussy five-year-old doesn't turn into a negotiation, and gluten-free options are available if that's something you're working around. It's a lively room, which is a relief when your toddler is having opinions, and outdoor seating gives you somewhere to go if things get loud. Prices sit at the cheaper end, 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.
