The Halston
Mid-priced Carlisle restaurant with a kids' menu, high chairs, step-free buggy access and gluten-free options.

Restaurant · Carlisle
Good pick for a mixed-age table, since there's a kids' menu for the younger ones and enough going on that older children won't feel parked at a children's meal. High chairs are on hand, and step-free access means you can get a buggy in and out without help. Vegan and gluten-free options are on the menu too, which takes the stress out of feeding a family with different needs. It's a lively room rather than a hushed one, so a bit of toddler noise won't stand out — 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.
