Brunch · Blackheath
The Ivy Cafe Blackheath brings a warm, cosy feel to the edge of the heath, with all seating on one level that makes life noticeably easier with a buggy — and highchairs are on hand for little ones too. The food is consistently praised and the atmosphere strikes a nice balance: lively and vibrant without feeling overwhelming, which reviewers reckon makes it genuinely family-friendly. There's outdoor space to make use of on a fine day, and the attentive staff seem well used to families, though there's no dedicated children's menu so younger fussier eaters may need to pick from the main offerings. Vegan options are available for those who need them.
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.
