Hamburger · Newcastle upon Tyne
A city-centre burger stop that works when you need feeding done without fuss — buggies get in, high chairs are there, and there's a kids' menu, so it handles the under-fives without drama. Ordering is by touchscreen, and the staff are the strong point: friendly, quick to explain how it works, checking in mid-meal. Food comes out fast, which matters when someone's melting down. The smashed beef and chicken burgers draw the most praise, along with crisp onion rings and thick, generous milkshakes — one parent calls the burger-and-shake pairing "the perfect combo". Worth knowing: it's pricier than it looks, around £20 a head once sides and drinks land, and quality wobbles — some find the patties dry and under-seasoned. The room is smart with a decent view, though the atmosphere can feel a bit flat and canteen-like.

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.
