Chestnuts Coffee Shop
Calm, homely Oadby independent where you can actually hear yourself talk — good breakfasts and coffee, kids' menu, high chairs, cash only.

Restaurant · Wigston
A pound-sign menu with a kids' menu and high chairs means you can walk in with a toddler and not have to think too hard about it — there'll be something small and cheap they'll eat, and somewhere to strap them in. Gluten-free options are on the cards too, which helps if one of yours can't have wheat. It's a quiet spot rather than a noisy one, so babies who nap through lunch stand a chance, though the flip side is you'll notice a meltdown more. Free parking and step-free access in with the buggy, plus outdoor seating for restless days; 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.
