Italian · Catford
A long-standing family-run Italian in Catford, La Pizzeria Italiana turns out generous portions of pizza, pasta and calzone at prices that won't leave you wincing — several reviewers have been coming here since childhood and still rate it highly. Highchairs are available for little ones, and the restaurant is easy to navigate with a buggy. There's no dedicated children's menu, but the extensive main menu and large portions mean most kids will find plenty to get stuck into.
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.
