A Bristol bubble tea and takeaway counter doing banh mi, spring rolls, and Asian sandwiches — handy for a quick treat on the go.

Pan-Asian · Bristol
A quick, cheap stop in the middle of Broadmead that works when you've got a pram and a hungry child and twenty minutes to spare. Boxes are filled to order at the counter, the queue moves fast, and there's a kids' menu, high chairs and vegan options, so nobody stands about waiting while a toddler unravels. Portions are generous when they're on form — the caramel chicken, BBQ chicken and vegetable noodles get the most love, and one regular has been coming back for three years. Be aware it's inconsistent: some visits bring bland, greasy noodles that have clearly sat a while, and portion sizes vary with whoever's serving. Go earlier rather than at the tail end of a session, and it's a solid, affordable fill-up between shops.

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.
