Sushi · Southampton
A small Southampton spot that turns out to be an easy one with children — there's a kids' menu, high chairs, and food that arrives fast, which matters when someone's patience has run out. Portions are big and fairly priced, so a child can share a plate rather than need their own. The sushi is the draw: handmade, fresh, and one platter with proper tuna is worth the money. Beyond that, families rave about the Malaysian fried rice, the Korean beef stew with noodles, roast duck udon, spicy tofu, and the crunchy chicken roll that one child apparently orders every time. The milky fruit boba teas are a decent bribe. It's cosy and tidy rather than roomy, so a pram may be awkward, and opinions on the noodles and brisket are mixed — stick to the sushi and rice dishes.

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.
