Blue Dolphin Fish Bar
Budget-friendly Hastings chippy with a kids' menu, high chairs, outdoor seating and gluten-free options for fussy tummies.
Restaurant · Hastings
Sitting in Hastings, Porters is the kind of place you can walk into with a toddler and a buggy without a plan: step-free access at the door, high chairs waiting, and a kids' menu so nobody's negotiating over a side of chips. There's outdoor seating if your lot need air between courses, and vegan and gluten-free options mean one dietary requirement doesn't decide where the whole family eats. It's lively rather than hushed, which is good news if your youngest is going through a loud phase. Worth booking ahead, and expect mid-range prices.

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.
