Aurum Restaurant
Fine dining in Southend that welcomes children — kids' menu, high chairs, step-free buggy access and a lively, forgiving atmosphere.
Restaurant · Southend-on-Sea
Getting in is straightforward — step-free access means you can push the buggy through the door rather than folding it at the threshold, and high chairs are already there when you sit down. There's a kids' menu, so you don't need to negotiate a side plate of something, and gluten-free options are available if one of your lot needs them. Noise sits at a moderate level, which usually means a bit of toddler chatter won't stand out. It's mid-range on price, and it's rated 4.1 from 754 ratings in Southend-on-Sea.

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.
