The Cricketers Inn

Mediterranean · Gravesend
Turkish and Middle Eastern grills tend to be an easy sell with children — plain grilled chicken or lamb, rice, warm bread and a spread of meze means even a fussy eater can build a plate they'll actually eat, and there's a kids' menu if you'd rather keep it simple. High chairs are on hand and the entrance and floor are step-free, so getting a buggy in isn't a battle. It's a lively room, which is good news if your toddler is having a loud day, and there's outdoor seating when you need the extra space. Gluten-free options are available, and it's worth booking ahead.

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.
