Italian · Shepherds Bush
Giulia is a well-regarded Italian restaurant tucked along Askew Road in Shepherd's Bush, the kind of neighbourhood spot that draws a loyal local crowd. It's pushchair-friendly, so getting in with a buggy shouldn't be a hassle — though it's worth bearing in mind there are no highchairs, so older toddlers and up will be most comfortable. It gets busy, particularly at weekends, so booking ahead is a sensible idea.
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.
