Vietnamese · Bristol
Vietnamese noodle soup done properly, and it turns out to be an easy one with children in tow — there's a mini pho on the kids' menu, high chairs, and step-free access if you're pushing a pram in. Families report being seated quickly even during a busy lunchtime, and food tends to arrive fast, which matters when someone's patience is running out. The broth is the draw: beef brisket, curry beef brisket, and the crab noodle soup all get raved about, and the summer rolls are a good shared starter. Staff will bring you a taste of the broth to check the spice level before you commit. Portions suit smaller appetites more than big ones, the beef can be a bit chewy for little jaws, and it's on the pricier side — one visitor called it "worth it if going out occasionally". Vegan options and outdoor tables too.
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.
