Seafood · Southend-on-Sea
A fish and chips spot in Southend-on-Sea with a kids' menu and high chairs, so a toddler in tow doesn't need any special arranging. Step-free access means you can get a buggy in without a lift-and-shuffle at the door, and there's outdoor seating if your children do better with a bit of air around them. Gluten-free options are available, which helps if one of yours eats differently from the rest. It's a lively room rather than a hushed one — good cover for noisy little ones — and worth booking ahead.

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.
