Falafel · Bristol
Tucked into Castle Park, this little falafel spot is an easy stop with children — plenty of outdoor seating right by the booth, room to park a buggy, high chairs, and food that arrives fast, which matters when someone's hungry and loud. Portions are generous for the price: falafel wraps and pittas packed with crunchy salad and tahini, a mezze salad box, halloumi wraps, and hummus topped with dukkah. The chilli sauce is properly spicy, so ask for it on the side for younger eaters. There's a kids' menu, vegan options, gluten-free choices and plant milks, plus hot and cold drinks — though the canned soft drinks feel pricey next to the food. The family running it are genuinely warm; one parent called the falafel simply "made with lots of love".

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.
