Seafood · Hove
A seaside-style fish and chips and seafood spot in Hove where the practical bits are already sorted: high chairs, a kids' menu, and step-free access so you can get a buggy in without a fight at the door. There's outdoor seating if your children do better with a bit of air and room to fidget, and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them. It's a lively place rather than a hushed one, which usually works in your favour with small children. Worth booking ahead, and at ££ it's a reasonable mid-range treat.
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.
