For some mums, answering the question "wanna go out for lunch?" can bring a wave of fear.
If you have no choice but to take your sproglets, choosing the venue has to be a strategic move. It has nothing to do with food either. Most kids are happy with a juice, bowl of hot chips and tomato sauce. But pick a cafe that's not child friendly and your lunch could be ruined.
Third Place Cafe is one of the favourites for me and my miniature entourage.
It's roomy enough to accommodate my massive double stroller for baby twins and it has a little play room to keep the 4-year-old amused. For those wandering toddlers, the room has a lockable gate. Bliss.
So the kids are happy, what about the adults?
