Café · Stratford
Tucked inside a handsome timber lodge at the north end of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Brew Street is a bright, spacious café-bar with bags of natural light and a genuinely relaxed feel — the kind of place where you can linger over a decent coffee without feeling rushed. The team runs soft play sessions, there's a kids' menu, highchairs are on hand, and the whole layout is easy to navigate with a buggy; vegan options are available too. Baby-changing isn't currently on site, but with the park right on the doorstep it's a lovely base for a family day out near the Wetlands and East Village.

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.
