Relaxed Earlsfield all-day spot with great brunch, warm staff, highchairs and buggy access.
Italian · Wandsworth
La Pernella on Garratt Lane has the warm, unhurried feel of a family home — the chef genuinely comes out to check on you, and the wood-fired pizzas and fresh pasta (the rigatoni is a hit with little ones) are the real deal. It's a proper family-friendly spot with highchairs, a kids' menu, and buggy-accessible access, plus outdoor space when the weather plays ball; no baby changing on site, so worth bearing in mind with very young ones. Run as a family business with authentic ingredients and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere, it's the kind of Italian that earns its loyal regulars.

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.
