Costa Coffee
Lively Hartlepool café with a kids' menu, high chairs, step-free buggy access and gluten-free options.

Café · Hartlepool
Supermarket cafés get a bad rap, but this one covers the basics that make lunch with small kids doable — a kids' menu, high chairs already there, and step-free access so you can push a buggy straight in without hunting for a ramp. Prices sit at the cheap end, which helps when someone eats three chips and declares themselves finished. Gluten-free options are on offer too, so a coeliac child isn't stuck with a packet of crisps. Noise is moderate, meaning a bit of chatter and clatter — nobody will notice a grumpy toddler.

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.
