Italian · Southport
Southport's La Tabella does the kind of Italian food that solves the fussy-eater problem before it starts — pasta and pizza are familiar enough that most children will eat something without negotiation, and there's a separate kids' menu if they'd rather order their own. High chairs are on hand for the under-twos, and step-free access means you can push a buggy straight in rather than folding it at the door. Gluten-free options are available if someone in the family needs them. It gets lively, so a bit of toddler noise won't stand out, and it's worth booking a table ahead.
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.
