Italian · Clerkenwell
A reliable spot for pizza and Italian classics in Clerkenwell, PizzaExpress delivers the familiar quality families appreciate — good dough, decent sauces, and a kids' menu to keep the little ones happy. Highchairs are available and the restaurant is easy to navigate with a buggy, and the kitchen can cater for vegan and gluten-free diets too. There's no outdoor seating or soft play, but the relaxed, unfussy atmosphere makes it a perfectly decent choice when you need a sit-down meal everyone will eat.
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.
