Pizza · Edinburgh
Neapolitan-style pizza, thin and blistered, arriving so fast that plates land within minutes of sitting down — which matters enormously when a four-year-old has hit the wall. That speed is the main thing to know here. It's a proper sit-down room rather than a takeaway counter, with buggy access, high chairs and a kids' menu, and the staff are generally warm and easy with families. Vegan options are on, and the simple marinara is a good light pick for a small appetite. Two honest snags: the bases are thin enough that toppings can slide off when you cut a slice, and pizzas sometimes arrive uncut, so bring patience for the sharing-out. Quality can wobble on busy nights too. Handy for St James Quarter, and about £20 a head.

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.
