Italian · Sunderland
Turning up here with children doesn't take much thinking ahead — there's a kids' menu, high chairs waiting, and step-free access so you can get a buggy in without hunting for a side door. Gluten-free options mean a child with a wheat issue isn't stuck with chips and an apology. The dining room runs on the quiet side, which suits a family that eats calmly but is worth knowing if your toddler is in a loud phase. Booking ahead is recommended, and it's mid-range on price.
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.
