Fish & chips · Eastbourne
A weekday lunch with a toddler in tow is straightforward here — there's a kids' menu, high chairs waiting, and step-free access so you're not lifting a buggy over a threshold. Gluten-free options mean a child with coeliac or an intolerance isn't stuck with a bowl of chips while everyone else eats. It's a moderate noise level rather than hushed, so a chatty three-year-old won't feel out of place, and mid-range prices keep a family meal reasonable. Booking is recommended, so a quick call ahead is worth it.

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.
