Café · Bow
Nunnery Café is a charming, relaxed spot on Bow Road with good coffee, a veggie-friendly menu, and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that makes it easy to linger. It's buggy-accessible and has a children's menu, with highchairs likely available if you ask — handy for little ones while you grab a bite. There's outdoor space too, though there's no baby changing on site, so worth bearing in mind if you've got a very young one in tow.
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.
