Thai · St Albans
It's a quiet room, which counts for a lot when you're the table with a toddler — no shouting over background noise, and no feeling that you're the only ones making any. High chairs and a kids' menu mean you can arrive with small children and not have to improvise, and there's outdoor seating if someone needs air or a wriggle. Gluten-free dishes are available too, so an allergy in the family doesn't rule it out. Worth booking ahead, and mid-range prices keep a family meal reasonable.
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.
