Budget-friendly Southend chippy with high chairs, a kids' menu, outdoor tables and vegan and gluten-free choices.
Pub · Southend-on-Sea
If you're bringing little ones to Southend-on-Sea, this Pub & Bar covers the practical basics without you having to ring ahead — high chairs are there, and there's a proper kids' menu so nobody's picking at a plate of chips. Step-free access means you can get in with a buggy rather than folding it at the door, and outdoor seating gives you somewhere to let restless children stretch out. Gluten-free options are available too, which helps if one of yours eats differently. It's on the quieter side, so it suits a calm lunch more than a loud, boisterous one.

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.
