Indian · East Ham
Chill with Chai is a pure vegetarian Indian café on Plashet Grove serving up flavourful breakfasts, warming chai and street-food style bites that feel genuinely homemade — don't let the compact frontage put you off, as seating spreads across two floors so there's usually room for the whole family. Highchairs are available and the café is easy to get into with a buggy, and there's a kids' menu to keep little ones happy alongside the grown-up Indian favourites. Vegan options are on the menu too, and the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere makes it a lovely low-key spot for a family meal or an afternoon cuppa.
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.
