Jasmine Kensington
Restaurant spot in Kensington.
Restaurant · Kensington
Cempaka brings warm, flavourful Malaysian cooking — think generous portions of rendang and fragrant curries — to a quietly tucked-away spot in Kensington, where the staff are genuinely welcoming and the atmosphere is relaxed enough to make a family meal feel easy. Highchairs and a kids' menu are on hand, and the restaurant is buggy-accessible, so getting in with little ones in tow is straightforward. It's halal-certified, which is handy to know, and while there's no outdoor space or baby-changing room, the unhurried pace and friendly team make up for it.

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.
