Restaurant · Bakewell
A kids' menu and high chairs mean a toddler is properly catered for here, so you're not carving up an adult plate or hunting for a booster seat. Gluten-free options are on hand too, which takes the edge off eating out with a coeliac child or a fussy tummy. Step-free access means the buggy comes in with you rather than being folded up at the door. Noise sits at a moderate level, so a bit of chatter from your table won't feel out of place, and mid-range prices keep a family meal reasonable.
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.
