Cafés · Nottingham
A small independent café with free parking outside, buggy access and high chairs, so getting in with a pushchair isn't the usual scramble. Brunch is the easy family option — bacon or sausage-and-tomato cobs cooked fresh, French berry toast served with yoghurt, well-cooked eggs with mushrooms, and a mocha that regulars rave about. There's outdoor seating, a kids' menu, and vegan choices, and the team handles allergies and dietary requirements properly when you flag them in advance. Afternoon tea is the draw for celebrations: warm scones, plenty of sandwiches, a good spread of cakes, and leftovers boxed up to take home. They've hosted big family birthdays and a baby shower in a private room. Two things worth knowing — afternoon tea is a minimum of two people, and it's worth booking for anything more than a table for two.
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.
