Nando's Shepherd's Bush

American · Shepherds Bush
Chicago Grill in Shepherd's Bush is a solid spot for families who fancy a proper burger — the patties are juicy, generous in size, and the kind of thing that keeps everyone at the table happy. The team are genuinely welcoming, which goes a long way when you're wrangling little ones, and the restaurant is easy to navigate with a buggy. Highchairs are usually available and there's a kids' menu, though there's no outdoor seating or baby changing on site, so worth bearing that in mind.

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.
