Bar & grill · Brighton
Getting in is straightforward — step-free access means you can push the buggy through the door rather than folding it at the threshold, and high chairs are there when you arrive. There's a kids' menu, so no negotiating over a plate of something they won't touch, and vegan and gluten-free options if anyone at the table eats differently. It's a lively room, which works in your favour when a toddler is having a moment, and outdoor seating gives you somewhere to go if things get loud. Worth booking ahead, as tables are held by reservation.
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.
