Steakhouse · Bermondsey
Flat Iron Borough is a no-frills steak specialist tucked along Clink Street in Southwark, where the focus is firmly on doing one thing brilliantly — a single cut of flat iron steak, cooked well and priced fairly, with decent sides and a complimentary cup of popcorn to keep everyone going while you wait. The menu is refreshingly short, which means food arrives quickly and the whole experience moves at a pace that suits families with younger children; highchairs are available and the restaurant is easy to navigate with a buggy. There's no dedicated children's menu, so it works best for little ones who are happy to share from the adult menu or tuck into a steak of their own.
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.
