Chinese · Bermondsey
Perched on the 33rd floor of the Shard, Hutong serves northern Chinese cuisine with jaw-dropping views of Tower Bridge and the Thames that genuinely stop you in your tracks — older children with a head for heights will be wide-eyed. The restaurant is buggy-accessible and highchairs are available, though there's no dedicated children's menu, so it suits adventurous young diners happy to share dishes from the main menu; the Sunday brunch with its generous spread of unlimited starters is a popular choice for a special family occasion. Vegan options are on offer, and the front-of-house team has a strong reputation for warm, attentive service that makes a celebratory meal feel genuinely looked after.
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.
