Oliver's Bar & Kitchen
Lively Rochester Modern European with a kids' menu, high chairs, outdoor seating and vegan and gluten-free choices; booking advised.
Café · Rochester
A weekday lunch with a toddler is about as easy as it gets here — there's a kids' menu, high chairs waiting, and step-free access so you can push a buggy straight in rather than folding it at the door. Gluten-free options mean a child with a coeliac diagnosis or an intolerance isn't left with a plate of chips, which saves the usual phone call ahead. It's an inexpensive spot with a moderate noise level, so a bit of chatter from your table won't stand out. Handy if you're in Rochester and need feeding sorted without much fuss.

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.
