Japanese · Sunderland
Sushi from a Tesco kiosk might not sound like a family meal, but there's a kids' menu here, so children who won't touch raw fish still have something to order. High chairs mean a baby or toddler is sorted without you juggling them on your lap, and the step-free access means you can push a buggy straight in rather than folding it down at a doorway. Gluten-free options are worth knowing about if someone in your group needs them. Noise sits at a moderate level, so a bit of chatter from your table won't stand out.
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.
