Café · Glasgow
A cosy neighbourhood spot where regulars and staff chat like old friends, this is an easy one with children in tow — buggy access, high chairs, a kids' menu and vegan options, plus free parking, though finding a space nearby can still be a drag. Breakfast and brunch are the strength: kippers and eggs done properly, homemade soups, a big array of cakes and scones, and the kitchen is happy to tweak dishes for fussy eaters or allergies. There's a small outdoor area set back from the main road, so it's quieter than most pavement seating. Table service is quick, which helps when someone's patience is thinning. Worth knowing: it gets busy and booking is recommended, coffee prices raise eyebrows for some, and service can be hit or miss — one parent found it "friendly and attentive", another far less so.
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.
