Italian · Edinburgh
Bringing a toddler here doesn't take much sorting out — there's a kids' menu, high chairs and step-free access, so you can get through the door with a buggy and sit down without a fuss. It's affordable Italian, which helps when you're feeding a family who may or may not eat what they order. Vegan and gluten-free dishes are on the menu too, so a child with allergies or a fussy eater isn't stuck. It's a lively room, so a noisy toddler won't stand out, and there's outdoor seating if you need air — worth booking ahead.
