Cafe Essence
Quiet Bangor fish and chip spot with a kids' menu, high chairs and gluten-free options; booking recommended.
Bar & grill · Bangor, County Down
Steak and grill cooking at mid-range prices, with a separate kids' menu so children aren't stuck picking at a side of chips while everyone else eats. High chairs mean babies and toddlers are properly catered for, and step-free access makes getting a buggy in straightforward rather than a two-person job. There are vegan and gluten-free options too, which helps if one of your children eats differently from the rest. It's a lively room rather than a hushed one — good news if your toddler is having a noisy day — and booking ahead is worth doing, with outdoor seating an option in decent weather.

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.
