Cafés · Nottingham
Tucked into a work-unit corner of Nottingham, this is the kind of spot where breakfast runs all day and nobody minds a pram parked beside the table. It's spacious and genuinely welcoming — plenty of seats, an open kitchen the children can watch, high chairs, a kids' menu, vegan and vegetarian options, and free parking (though the small on-street overflow fills quickly on weekdays). Food arrives fast even when every table is taken, which matters at the melting-down hour. The cooked breakfasts and jacket potatoes get the most love, Sunday beef that "melts in your mouth", and an afternoon tea with unlimited hot chocolates that regulars rave about. Two honest snags: it's a loud room, especially Saturday mornings and with the radio on early, and a few people find portions small for the price. Toilets are clean and well kept.
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.
