Café · Blackburn
Getting in is straightforward here — step-free access means you can push the buggy in rather than folding it at the door, and there are high chairs waiting once you're inside. There's a kids' menu, so you don't have to negotiate a shared adult plate, and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them. Outdoor seating gives you somewhere to go when a toddler needs to be louder than the room, though the noise level inside is moderate anyway. It's cheap, which helps when half the food comes home in a napkin.
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.
