Turkish · East Dulwich
A well-regarded Turkish BBQ and meze spot on Lordship Lane in East Dulwich, Love Dulwich serves up grills, mezze spreads and vegan dishes in a warm, relaxed setting that works nicely for families. Little ones are well catered for with a children's menu, highchairs and baby-changing facilities, and the outdoor seating is handy when the weather plays ball — buggies can get in and around without any fuss too. It's a popular place, so booking ahead is a good idea, particularly at weekends.

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.
