Café · Southend-on-Sea
This is the sort of place you can walk into with a toddler and not think twice — high chairs are there, and there's a kids' menu so you're not negotiating over a plate of something they won't touch. Gluten-free options mean one less phone call ahead if someone in the family needs them, and step-free access makes getting a buggy in straightforward rather than a two-person job. It tends to be quiet, which suits a calm coffee but is worth knowing if your two are in a loud mood. Booking is recommended, and prices sit at the gentle end.
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.
