Restaurant · Harrow
Nando's South Harrow serves up the chain's familiar flame-grilled peri-peri chicken in a relaxed, casual setting that works well for families — one reviewer even brought a party of 25 for a birthday and found the staff impressively patient and organised. Highchairs and a children's menu are on hand, the restaurant is easy to navigate with a buggy, and there are some nicely tucked-away booth seats towards the back if you fancy a quieter spot. Halal and vegan options are available, and parking is straightforward just outside, though note it's pay-and-display until 6:30pm.
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.
