Restaurant · Wimbledon
A busy KFC serving up the classic fried chicken you'd expect, with a relaxed atmosphere that makes it easy to pop in with the family. Highchairs and a kids' meal option mean little ones are well catered for, and the restaurant is pushchair-friendly throughout. There's a little outdoor space if you need a breather, and vegan options are available — though one reviewer has described the food as halal, so if that's important to your family it's worth checking directly with the branch before you visit.
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.
