Café · East Ham
Parkside Cafe on High Street South is a well-loved Turkish café serving up generous breakfasts and brunch in a relaxed, old-school atmosphere that feels genuinely welcoming for families. Reviewers keep coming back for the variety and quality on the menu, and the place is buggy-accessible with highchairs available and a kids' menu to keep little ones happy — there's outdoor space too if you fancy some fresh air. No baby-changing facilities on site, so worth bearing that in mind if you've got very young ones 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.
