French · Putney
Gazette Putney brings a relaxed slice of French bistro cooking to Upper Richmond Road, with a lunch set menu that regulars rave about — think prawn cocktail on toast, pan-fried seabass, and a passionfruit mousse that's well worth saving room for. It's a genuinely family-friendly spot with highchairs on hand, buggy-friendly access, and a kids' menu, plus vegan options on the menu for plant-based families; there's no baby changing on site, so worth bearing in mind with very little ones. A small outdoor space makes it a lovely choice on a decent day.
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.
