EthyOn Cafe
A calm, cosy upstairs café near New Street with fair trade coffee, bargain meal deals and warm staff — though the stairs make prams awkward.

Fast Food · Birmingham
A city-centre chicken-and-chips spot near Temple Row that works surprisingly well with kids in tow — there's a kids' menu, high chairs, buggy access and a few outdoor seats, and it's roomy enough to park a pram while you eat. Food arrives hot and fast, which matters when someone's hungry and loud. The fried chicken is the draw: golden, crispy, properly seasoned and not greasy, with skin-on chips in generous portions and a thick savoury gravy people rave about for dipping. Peri peri fries and the burgers get good mentions too. Prices are fair for a prime shopping spot, and the staff are cheerful. One snag: ordering is mainly by screen, so if you need to change a burger — sauce off for a fussy eater — you'll have to queue at the counter.

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.

Roomy, unrushed Italian with kids' menu, high chairs and generous portions — the bruschetta and carbonara are the ones to order.
