Vanillas Coffee
Relaxed, family-run café with brilliant-value breakfasts, a kids' menu, outdoor space and buggy access.
Café · Lewisham
Tucked into the heart of Hilly Fields park, this popular little café draws you in with the smell of bacon and a relaxed, local atmosphere that families clearly love. It's reasonably priced with a kids' menu on offer, and the buggy-friendly surroundings make it an easy stop after a run around in the park — though there's no baby changing on site, so plan accordingly. Vegan options are available too, and the friendly staff add a warm touch even if the menu keeps things fairly simple.

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.
