Thai · Ipswich
Expect a bit of a buzz here — it's a lively room, which is genuinely helpful when you've got a child who talks loudly or drops cutlery, because nobody will notice. There's a kids' menu and high chairs, so a toddler is properly catered for rather than an afterthought, and step-free access means you can get a buggy in without a struggle. Vegan and gluten-free dishes are on offer too, which takes the stress out of eating with different needs at the table. Worth booking ahead so you're not standing around with tired 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.
