Restaurant · Cambridge
Tucked behind a hotel entrance, which throws people at first, this Neapolitan spot rewards the slightly odd walk-in with proper wood-fired pizza and fresh, carefully handled seafood. The pizza-making happens in view, which buys you a good ten minutes of distracted children, and the staff are consistently warm — one large group of thirty-five came away full of praise for how calmly everything was handled. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, room to get a pram through, outdoor seating and free parking, which is no small thing in Cambridge. Portions are generous and prices sit mid-range. Worth knowing: it's not flawless — a few people have hit cold pasta or a table that needed a wipe, and the carbonara divides opinion. Stick to the pizza and the seafood and you'll do well.
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.
