Café · Clacton-on-Sea
Clacton-on-Sea has plenty of families needing somewhere easy for lunch, and this small café and bakery keeps things simple at the cheaper end. There's a kids' menu and high chairs, so a toddler in tow doesn't need planning around, and step-free access means you can get a buggy in without lifting it over anything. Outdoor seating gives you the option of eating in the fresh air when the weather allows, and gluten-free choices are available if someone in the family needs them. Noise sits at a moderate level, so a chatty child won't stand out.

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.
