Café · East Sheen
Tucked along Upper Richmond Road West in East Sheen, Cafe Al Fresco is the kind of neighbourhood café that feels like a local secret — Italian photography on the walls, seriously good cappuccinos, and a quiet back garden that's perfect for a relaxed morning near Richmond Park. Buggies move easily through to the outdoor seating, and highchairs are on hand, making it a genuinely family-friendly stop even if there's no dedicated children's menu. The cherry almond croissant has something of a cult following among regulars, and the unhurried atmosphere means nobody's rushing you out.

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.
