Mexican · Nottingham
A quick, cheap stop in the Victoria Centre that works well when everyone's hungry at once — you build your own burrito or bowl at the counter, so fussy eaters can have plain rice, chicken and cheese while you load yours up. Food arrives in minutes, which matters with a toddler on the edge. Portions are generous and good value, there's a kids' menu, high chairs and room to get a pram in, plus vegan fillings and the little bags of tortilla chips children love. The nachos with cheese dip go down well too. Staff are cheerful and quick, and the team will mention student and blue light discounts. Be warned: it gets busy and loud at lunchtime, and tables can go a while between wipes.
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.
