Café · Bristol
Tucked into the city centre, this is a small, calm breakfast spot where you can actually hear yourself think — plants, gentle music and a stripped-back room that suits a slow morning with a pram in tow. The manoushé is the thing to order: warm, fresh, properly seasoned, and a manoushé plus a fresh juice comes in under £10. Breakfast bowls arrive full of real fruit and grains, the hummus and baba ganoush deal with pita and salad is generous enough at £7 that you may take some home, and the smoothies get repeat visits. It's halal, with a kids' menu, high chairs, vegan options and a few outdoor tables. The team are warm and easy with people. Tables can be slow to get wiped at busy moments, and it's snug rather than sprawling.
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.
