Café · Bermondsey
The Bridge Social is a relaxed, sociable spot on Southwark Bridge Road that works well for families who want somewhere to settle in rather than rush through — think board games, a bit of breathing room, and staff who are genuinely welcoming. Highchairs are available and the venue is easy to navigate with a buggy, and there are vegan options on the menu for plant-based eaters in the family. There's no outdoor space or baby changing room, so worth bearing in mind if you've got very little ones in tow.
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.
