Chinese · Newcastle upon Tyne
Chinese food at a moderate volume, so a toddler's chatter or a wobbly moment won't feel like it's echoing round the room. There are high chairs and a kids' menu, which means you can walk in with a little one and not have to sort anything out in advance, and step-free access makes life easier if you're pushing a buggy. Vegan and gluten-free options are on hand too, handy if someone in the family eats differently. At ££ it's an easy midweek choice in Newcastle upon Tyne.
