Boston Tea Party
Bright, friendly café with a terrace view, a solid kids' meal deal and pancakes worth the trip — just allow time for food.

Restaurant · Plymouth
Right on the Barbican with a shaded terrace looking out over the harbour, this is a pizza place that does one thing exceptionally well — thin, crispy bases loaded with toppings, and portions big enough that one pizza feeds two, with a takeaway box for the rest. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, buggy access and tater tots that go down well with small people. Gluten-free, vegan cheese and plant-based options are all handled properly, and the team will talk allergies through if you ring ahead. Two things worth knowing: pizzas can take a while to arrive, so order starters to keep everyone going, and the gluten-free base is smaller for the same price. Staff are warm and attentive — one family who's been coming for years calls it "our own pizza heaven".

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.
