Restaurant · St Albans
A high-street chain kitchen with a kids' menu and high chairs, so a toddler is straightforwardly catered for here without ringing ahead to check. Buggy access is step-free, which saves the awkward doorway shuffle, and there's outdoor seating if you'd rather be where a bit of noise doesn't matter. It runs lively rather than hushed, which usually works in a family's favour — a grizzly baby won't be the loudest thing in the room. Vegan and gluten-free options are on, and it's worth booking, particularly at weekends.
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.
