Indian · Edinburgh
A weekday lunch with a toddler is straightforward here — high chairs are on hand and there's a kids' menu, so nobody's negotiating over a plate of something too spicy. Vegan, gluten-free and halal options mean a family with different needs at the table can all order properly rather than one person making do. The noise sits at a moderate level, so a bit of chatter or a dropped fork won't turn heads. Booking is recommended, which is worth doing if you're arriving with a pushchair and want a table with room around 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.
