The Source Coffee Roasters is an easygoing Edinburgh coffee shop where the 4.8-star rating across more than 700 reviews speaks to how reliably good a stop it is with little ones in tow. There's outdoor seating for sunny days or when the pram won't fold, and the menu includes vegan options so most of the family is covered. Mid-range prices make it an easy choice for a relaxed coffee and a bite.

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.
