British · Colchester
A British menu at ££ prices with a proper kids' menu behind it, so children get their own plates rather than a hopeful side order — and vegan and gluten-free options mean a fussy eater or an allergy in the group doesn't derail the meal. High chairs are there for the under-twos, and step-free access means you can push the buggy straight in instead of folding it on the doorstep. It's a lively room, which is good news if your toddler is going through a loud phase. Worth booking ahead, especially at weekends.
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.
