Ace Plaice
Turkish spot in West Norwood.
Café · West Norwood
The Electric Cafe is a genuinely special find — a working café that dates back to the 1900s, where the original fittings and atmosphere transport you straight into the past the moment you walk through the door. The menu leans into proper British café classics: full English breakfasts, homemade chips, and eggs done well, all served by famously welcoming staff who clearly take pride in the place. Highchairs are available for little ones, and the café is easy to get into with a buggy, though it's a compact, characterful space rather than a sprawling family restaurant.

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.
