Into The Woods Family Café
Quiet South Shields café with high chairs, a kids' menu, step-free buggy access and gluten-free options.

Mediterranean · South Shields
A weekday lunch here works without much fuss — high chairs and a kids' menu mean the practical side is already sorted, and step-free access means you can get a buggy in without lifting it over anything. It's a lively room, which is good news if your toddler is having a loud day, though it's worth booking ahead. Turkish and Middle Eastern food shares well, so a table of small plates can suit picky eaters and grown-ups at once, and there are vegan and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them.

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.
