Family · Rochester
Handy for a weekday lunch when you want somewhere the children can order from a menu of their own without any fuss. High chairs mean a baby is sorted too, and step-free access makes getting a buggy in and out straightforward rather than a two-person job. There are vegan and gluten-free choices, so a fussy eater or an allergy in the group needn't rule it out, and the outdoor seating is useful on a bright day when small people need a bit of air. The noise sits at a comfortable middle, though it's 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.
