Restaurant · Sheffield
Ethiopian cooking inside the Cambridge Street Collective food hall, which makes it an easy one with children — you're in a big open space with room to park a pram, there's a kids' menu and high chairs, and everyone can eat something different if your lot won't agree. Food comes out fast, which matters when someone's already gone. The vegan options are properly generous rather than an afterthought, and the chicken tibs with rice and injera gets ordered again and again; the burgers and loaded fries win over children who'd rather not try anything new. Be warned that the spicy chips sauce is genuinely hot — order plain for younger ones. Weekends in the hall get loud, and one parent notes the staff can seem brisk when it's busy.
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.
Table-top charcoal BBQ and fresh sushi with kids' menu, high chairs and toasted marshmallows — quietest at weekday lunch.
Warm, cosy Malaysian spot with generous sharing portions, a comforting mild curry laksa, kids' menu, high chairs and buggy access.
A Sheffield restaurant with a kids' menu and vegan options, handy for families with a mix of tastes.
