Turkish · Brighton
A Turkish grill that's smarter-looking than most, so it feels like a treat, but the bustle means nobody notices a noisy toddler — there are high chairs, a kids' menu and room to get a pram in. Portions are enormous, which is handy when children eat off your plate: the mixed grill and lamb kebabs come soft and juicy, the adana with yoghurt is a regular's standby, and the rice arrives with chickpeas and seasoning rather than as an afterthought. Grilled sea bass and hot baklava with vanilla ice cream both get raved about. The staff are welcoming and good at steering you through the menu. It's not cheap and it gets genuinely busy, so book at weekends — one family calls the food "worth every penny", and the salads with pomegranate are worth ordering even if raw shredded veg isn't your child's thing.
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.
