Tea room · Brighton
Small, warm and properly homemade — this is a tea room that runs on care rather than scale, and it shows in fluffy, still-warm scones, sandwiches made to order, and tea brewed so carefully they hand you a little hourglass to time the steeping. The vintage, slightly kitsch interior makes it feel more like someone's front room than a café, which suits quieter children well, though be honest with yourself about the space: it's genuinely tiny, so a pram is a squeeze and booking is essential rather than optional. High chairs and a kids' menu are there, and the owners are unfailingly patient — happy to chat, work around dietary needs, and add a candle for a birthday. Portions are generous for the price, and one parent describes it as calm and homely.

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.
