Restaurant · Leeds
There's a proper Italian feel to this Garforth spot, and the trains rattling past the window are a free show for a child who's run out of patience. Buggies get in fine, high chairs are there, and there's a kids' menu plus vegan options, with free parking so you're not circling the block. The pizzas are the thing to order — charred, blistered crusts and good toppings — and the cod with courgette and cherry tomatoes gets a lot of love, as does the tenderstem broccoli with chilli. Lunchtimes are peaceful; the staff are patient and take time to explain dishes. Pistachio tiramisu is worth the extra spoon. The snag: it's genuinely popular, and one parent's advice holds — book "well in advance" for evenings and weekends.
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.
