Restaurant · Islington
Rico's Slushies is a fun, casual spot in Islington that's handy for families on the go — pushchairs can get in without a fuss, and there's likely a kids' menu to keep little ones happy. The vibe feels relaxed and straightforward, making it a decent pit-stop if you're out and about in the area. No baby-changing facilities on site, so worth bearing that in mind if you've got a very young one with you.

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.
