Seafood · Camden
Poppies in Camden is a proper old-school chippie dressed up in 1950s East End style — think vintage pin-ups, retro memorabilia, and the kind of generous battered cod or haddock that actually fills hungry kids up. There's a children's menu and highchairs available, and getting a buggy through the door is straightforward. No outdoor seating, but the nostalgic atmosphere inside tends to keep little ones entertained while they wait for their scampi and chips.

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.
