Turkish · Hastings
A weekday lunch with a toddler is straightforward here — there's a kids' menu, high chairs, and step-free access, so you can get in with the buggy and get everyone fed without a plan. Vegan and gluten-free options mean nobody in the family gets left picking at a side plate. It's a lively room, which is good news if your youngest is going through a loud phase, and there's outdoor seating when you'd rather not be indoors. 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.
