Cheap and cheerful Middlesbrough spot with a kids' menu, high chairs, gluten-free options and step-free buggy access.

Caribbean · Middlesbrough
Getting in is straightforward — step-free access means you can push the buggy through the door rather than folding it on the doorstep. High chairs and a proper kids' menu are both sorted, so a toddler is catered for without you packing snacks as backup. There are vegan and gluten-free dishes too, useful if someone in the family eats differently. It's on the lively side, which works in your favour with a noisy little one, though it's worth booking a table before you set off.

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.
