Cafés · Leicester
A cosy little spot on a Leicester side street where the layout does a lot of the work — there's the homey room inside, an outdoor area, and a cabin tucked round the back, so you can pick whichever suits the mood your children are in. Food arrives fast, which matters when someone's hungry and vocal, and the staff are the sort who make you feel like you've dropped in on a friend rather than a café. Breakfasts are the draw: proper bacon, excellent hash browns, eggs Benedict, omelettes, and a genuine vegan fry-up alongside gluten-free and vegetarian choices. Portions are generous and prices are gentle. High chairs, a kids' menu, and free parking are all here, though the spaces out front are limited — arrive early or expect a short walk. It's busy most days, and takeaway orders don't always travel as well as eating in.
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.
