Cat cafe · Brighton
A cat café near the Brighton seafront that turns lunch into a proper outing — the resident cats wander freely between tables, dozing on perches or coming over for a treat, and the staff know every one of them by name and age. Expect a calm, cosy room rather than a boisterous one: the team check in on nervous visitors, will seat you upstairs if you ask, and are patient with children who need a moment to warm up. There's a kids' menu, high chairs and buggy access, plus good coffee, matcha and a hot chocolate dusted with a paw print. Two honest notes: a booking deposit and minimum spend make it more of a treat than a casual stop, and the cats nap in the late afternoon — go earlier if your children want them awake and interested.

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.
