Restaurant · Norwich
Two floors (some say three) of warm Turkish decor make this a surprisingly easy place to land with children — there's proper room to spread out, a buggy can get in, and high chairs are there if you need them. The small-plates format is the real win with kids: things arrive quickly even when the room is packed, and everyone picks at what they fancy. Hummus comes light rather than heavy, the halloumi is tender and well seasoned, and the feta parcels get talked about long afterwards. Staff notice things — one family waiting on an outdoor table were moved out within five minutes of one freeing up. There's a kids' menu and vegan choices. Two snags: the loos are a long way down if you're seated on the top floor, and a few feel the portions don't quite match the bill.
