Café · Ashford
A Turkish-Kentish breakfast spot that manages the rare trick of being genuinely lovely and genuinely relaxed about children. Portions are enormous — the menemen is rich and properly flavoured, the pancakes come out light, and there are homemade sweets if anyone still has room. Buggy access and high chairs are sorted, there's a kids' menu, and free parking takes one worry off the morning. Outside tables are a good option when your two are loud. What stands out most is the patience: the team happily boxed up a half-eaten plate for one visitor, and let another group linger long past closing without a hint of rushing. It's cosy rather than cavernous, so a pram plus a full table can feel snug at busy weekend brunch times — go early if you can.
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.
