Turkish · Manchester
A family business that's been feeding Manchester for over 50 years, and it shows in the small things — the traditional room fills up but the team keeps pace, and food tends to arrive fast, which matters when someone small has hit the wall. Buggy access, high chairs and a kids' menu are all sorted, plus vegan and halal options, so mixed groups aren't a problem. The mixed starters are mostly dips with flatbread, easy to share and easy for little hands; the adana kebab and the baked aubergine with rice and salad get particular praise, and portions are generous. Weekday lunch specials come in around £20 a head for starter, main and a drink. Worth knowing: it gets packed, and service can drag at the end of a meal — there's a takeaway counter if you need to be quick.

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.
