Restaurant · Maidstone
Expect a bit of a buzz here — it's a lively room, which is good news when your toddler is having a loud day and less ideal if you're hoping for a quiet meal. Practically, it's well set up for families: a kids' menu, high chairs and step-free access mean you can push a buggy in and sit down without a fuss. Vegan and gluten-free options make it easier if someone in the family eats differently. It's worth booking ahead rather than chancing it, and at ££ it's a mid-range treat rather than an everyday stop.
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.
