Indian restaurant in Southend-on-Sea with high chairs, a kids' menu, gluten-free options, outdoor seating and step-free buggy access.
Portuguese · Southend-on-Sea
Portuguese cooking tends to suit young eaters better than parents expect — grilled chicken, rice, simple fish — and there's a separate kids' menu here if your child wants something plainer. High chairs mean you can bring a baby along without hunting for somewhere to put them, and step-free access into the room saves the buggy-folding routine at the door. Gluten-free options are available too, which helps if one of your lot has to avoid it. It's a quiet spot rather than a bustling one, and booking ahead is a good idea.

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.
