Vietnamese · Manchester
Tucked into Chinatown, this small Vietnamese place is a good bet when everyone's cold, hungry and past negotiating — food arrives quickly, portions are enormous, and there's a kids' menu and high chairs. The pho is the reason people come back (the pho ga with chicken breast gets particular love), alongside fresh summer rolls, pork skewers and crispy wings in a sweet-spicy sauce. Vegan and gluten-free options are on the menu too, and the iced coffee is worth ordering. Two honest snags: it's popular, so booking is sensible in school holidays or you may wait for a table, and the tables sit close together in a warm, dimly lit room — you'll hear your neighbours, and they'll hear your children. Service is friendly but can drift when it's busy. Prices are genuinely reasonable, and one family left too full to eat again that day.

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.
