Mexican · Southampton
A build-your-own burrito bar where you watch your bowl assembled at the counter — which, handily, keeps small people entertained during the wait, and the food comes out fast. Portions are big enough that the medium is usually plenty; the large shredded beef bowl defeats most adults. Nachos arrive loaded with cheese and jalapeños, the burritos get real praise, and there's cheesecake and a wall of Jarritos in every colour if you need a bribe. It's a small, tidy room that rarely fills up, so there's space for a buggy and it stays quiet enough to actually talk. Kids' menu, high chairs and vegan options are all sorted, and prices are gentle. Service can be hit-and-miss on a quiet evening, and skip delivery — eating in is noticeably better.
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.
