Tucked inside Eldon Square, this Lebanese kitchen makes a genuinely easy stop mid-shopping trip — buggy access, high chairs and a kids' menu, plus vegan options for anyone avoiding the grills. Food arrives fast, which matters when someone's hungry and cross, and olives and dips land on the table almost as soon as you sit. The mixed grill feeds three for under £37, the whole grilled sea bass with rice draws a loyal following, and the parmos and shawarma get their own devotees. Portions are big enough to share with a small child. Staff are warm and go out of their way — one group arriving with a mobility scooter said they "bent over backwards" to help. Two honest snags: the music can be loud, and the loos have been out of order at times, with the mall's own locked by evening.
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.
