Tre Viet Mare Street on Mare Street is a Vietnamese noodle spot that's earned a devoted local following for its bone broth — reviewers rave about the glossy, light noodles and generous piles of veg, all at prices that won't make your eyes water. The staff are noted for being genuinely patient when explaining the menu, which is handy when you're juggling curious little ones, and the portions are the kind that keep everyone well fed. Highchairs are available and the restaurant is buggy-accessible, plus there are vegan options on the menu — though there's no dedicated kids' menu, the sharing-friendly dishes tend to go down well with families.

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.
