Merkamo Vegan
Vegan spot in Whitechapel.
Indian · Whitechapel
Dosa World is a compact, no-frills South Indian spot just off Brick Lane, serving flavourful biryanis, dosas and vegetarian dishes that families genuinely rave about — the menu is broad and the prices are very reasonable. Highchairs are available and the restaurant is easy to get into with a buggy, though it is a small space so it can feel snug, and there's no dedicated kids' menu. Vegan families are well catered for, and the kitchen has shown real willingness to work around dietary needs like gluten-free requests, so it's worth having a chat with the staff when you arrive.

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.
