Dessert · Sunderland
A dessert stop like this one suits a mixed-age outing, when the toddler needs a high chair and the older ones just want something sweet. There's a kids' menu, so the little ones aren't stuck sharing off your plate, and gluten-free options mean one dietary need in the group doesn't rule the place out. Step-free access makes getting a buggy in straightforward rather than a manoeuvre. It's a lively spot rather than a quiet one, which works in your favour with children — and booking ahead is worth doing.
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.
