Pub · Leicester
A weekday lunch with a toddler in tow is straightforward here — high chairs are on hand, there's a kids' menu so you're not carving up an adult plate, and gluten-free options mean one fussy tummy doesn't derail the whole outing. It's a lively room rather than a hushed one, which is good news if your two-year-old is going through a loud phase. Outdoor seating gives you somewhere to decamp when someone needs air or a wriggle. Worth booking ahead, and at ££ it won't sting.
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.
