Restaurant · Edinburgh
A food-hall setup where everyone picks their own thing, which solves the eternal problem of one child wanting noodles and the other wanting pizza. You order from your phone at the table and it arrives fast — genuinely useful when someone's hit the wall — brought over by staff described as friendly and attentive. There's plenty of seating inside and out, buggy access, high chairs and a kids' menu, and the music sits at a level where you can still hear each other across the table. Stalls run from tacos and Korean fried chicken bao to BBQ, curry, pizza and soft serve; the mixed grill platter comes in generous, and one visitor's favourite turned out to be a fried pineapple taco. Prices are fair for what arrives. Busy and buzzy rather than quiet, so it suits noisy toddlers well.
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.
