Burger · Leytonstone
Bobo & Wild is a laid-back coffee shop, brunch spot and smokehouse on Wanstead High Street that genuinely earns its devoted local following — reviewers rave about the food variety, the relaxed no-rush atmosphere, and a special Sunday menu worth planning around. It's a solid choice for families: highchairs and baby changing are on hand, the venue is buggy-accessible, and vegan options are available. Do note that at least one parent found the children's menu wasn't proactively offered at brunch, so it's worth asking staff about kids' options when you arrive.
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.
