Italian · Norwich
A three-storey Italian in the middle of Norwich that turns out to be roomier than it looks from the street — plenty of tables spread across the floors, buggy access, high chairs and a kids' menu, plus vegan options if someone in your group needs them. The menu is short and everything on it is done properly: the beef cheek and pancetta ragu comes up again and again, as do the scallops with sea herbs and pasta cooked exactly right. Staff are warm and unhurried, happy to steer you towards something, and lunch here can stretch out pleasantly. Two honest notes: it gets genuinely noisy when full — one visitor found conversation hard work — and tables go fast, though cancellations often free up slots if you ring the same morning.
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.
