Italian · Glasgow
Twelve at a table on a Saturday night is no trouble here, and a one-year-old flinging more food on the floor than she eats gets chatted to rather than tutted at — the team cleared up the chaos and even rescued a forgotten birthday cake. It's an Italian kitchen people cross the country for: fish and chips in light, crisp batter, spicy sausage mac and cheese, tagliatelle with chicken and mushrooms, banoffee cheesecake worth ordering even when you're stuffed, and portions that come out generous. High chairs, a kids' menu, buggy access, vegan options, free parking and a few outdoor tables cover the practical side. It's busy even on a Monday, so book ahead — and service can move briskly at peak times, with plates cleared while you're still going.
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.
