Italian · Forest Hill
Bona is a warmly regarded Italian restaurant on Dartmouth Road in Forest Hill, the sort of neighbourhood spot that draws families back again and again. There's a children's menu and highchairs for little ones, the entrance is buggy-friendly, and vegan dishes are available on the menu too. It's worth booking ahead, particularly if you're planning a weekend visit.

The secret to a calmer meal out? Something to do that isn't a phone. Each pack is full of screen-free bits and bobs to keep little hands busy at the table and buy you a proper sit-down. Three printable packs, one for each age (toddler, preschool, primary) — free, straight to your inbox.
