Café · Norwich
There's a calm feel to this Norwich café, with a quiet noise level that suits a child who's happy to sit and colour rather than one mid-meltdown — though it also means you'll hear your own toddler more than anywhere else. High chairs and a kids' menu are both sorted, so you don't need to pack a separate lunch or negotiate over a grown-up plate. Step-free access means the buggy comes in with you, and there's outdoor seating for when someone needs a wriggle. Gluten-free options are available, and it's worth booking ahead.
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.
Lively Norwich café and bakery with high chairs, a kids' menu, step-free buggy access and vegan and gluten-free options.
A cosy Norwich café with a real fire, superb scones and toasties, kids' menu and high chairs, plus a roomy upstairs for groups.
Cheap, fast and family-kitted riverside Wetherspoons with a sunny-ish beer garden — huge, busy, and loud at weekends.
