Café · Clapton
Venetias is a cosy little coffee shop on Chatsworth Road with a relaxed, neighbourhood feel — great food, a huge drinks menu, and fresh juices well worth trying. There's a lovely garden out the back that makes it a nice spot for families, and the place is easy to navigate with a buggy. Highchairs are usually available and there's a kids' menu, plus vegan options if you need them; just be aware there's no baby changing on site.
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.

Corner pub with bespoke display tables and funky outdoor space, for craft ales and creative menu.
Brilliant Neapolitan pizza in Hackney — welcoming, family-friendly, with highchairs and great GF options.
