Mediterranean · St Albans
You can bring a toddler here without much thought — there are high chairs, a proper kids' menu, and step-free access, so the buggy comes in with you rather than getting folded up in the doorway. It's a lively room, which is good news if your youngest is going through a loud phase; nobody's going to notice. Vegan and gluten-free dishes are on the menu too, so mixed groups and fussier eaters are covered without a separate conversation with the kitchen. Turkish and Middle Eastern food at mid-range prices, and it holds a 4.4 from over 770 ratings.
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.
