Italian · Covent Garden
Spring sits inside the grand surroundings of Somerset House, serving imaginative, seasonal British cooking that reviewers consistently rave about — the 'Scratch' menu in particular draws real praise for delivering seriously accomplished food at surprisingly reasonable prices. The restaurant is buggy-accessible and highchairs are available, making it manageable with little ones, though there's no outdoor seating and no dedicated children's menu, so it suits families with curious eaters happy to share from the main menu. It's a genuinely special spot for a family meal out if you're after something a step above the everyday.
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.
