A big, easy-going halal burger spot on City Road with enough seating to swallow a party of eight without anyone perching on a windowsill — useful if you're arriving with a pram and a couple of children in tow. The menu is huge but straightforward, and there's a kids' menu, high chairs and free parking. Children get colouring pencils and paper, which buys you a quiet ten minutes. You order, take a buzzer and collect when it goes off, so there's no long wait with a hungry toddler. The fillet burger and crisp fries come in for particular praise, and the beef burger too; the chicken wings can be salty. Staff are generally warm with families, though service isn't always consistent, and the toilets depend on who used them last.
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.
