The Lodge Coffee Shop
East Grinstead café-style stop with a kids' menu, high chairs, step-free buggy access and outdoor seating.
Café · East Grinstead
Turning up here with a toddler doesn't take much thought — there are high chairs waiting, a kids' menu so you're not carving up an adult plate, and step-free access means the buggy comes in with you rather than getting folded on the doorstep. Gluten-free options are available too, which helps if one of your children eats differently from the rest. The noise sits at a comfortable middle, so a bit of chatter or a dropped fork won't feel like a spectacle. It's a mid-priced café and bakery in East Grinstead, West Sussex, and an easy stop when you need to feed everyone properly.

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.
