BrewDog's Lothian Road spot sits right in the middle of Edinburgh and pulls a steady 4.4 from thousands of visitors, so you know it's a reliable stop. There's outdoor seating if you'd rather the kids have a bit of room while you settle in, and at the ££ mark it won't stretch the budget too far.

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.
