Gastropub · Sunderland
A lively pub where the noise is on your side — nobody's going to notice a toddler having a moment. There are high chairs and a kids' menu, so you can walk in with small children and not have thought it through in advance, and gluten-free options if someone in the family needs them. Step-free access means the buggy comes in with you rather than getting folded at the door, and there's outdoor seating for warmer days or when a child needs a change of scene. It's worth booking ahead, and prices sit at the gentler end.
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.
