Chinese · Derby
A sit-down Chinese restaurant in Derby with the practical things sorted for family meals — high chairs, a kids' menu and step-free access so a buggy isn't a problem at the door. Gluten-free options are available too, which helps if one of your children needs to avoid it. It tends to be on the quiet side, so it suits a calmer meal rather than a boisterous one, and it's worth booking a table ahead. At ££ it's an everyday-ish treat rather than a splurge.

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.
