Indian · Tooting
Royal Mahal Tooting serves up hearty, authentic Pakistani food in a warm and welcoming atmosphere that genuinely suits a family night out — staff have a real knack for making everyone feel at home, little ones included. Highchairs and a children's menu are on hand, the restaurant is easy to navigate with a buggy, and there's a baby-changing facility too, so the practical side of eating out with young kids is well covered. There's no outdoor seating, but the attentive, good-humoured service more than makes up for it — one family even got a surprise birthday dance from the team.
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.
