Pizzaza is a no-frills spot on Albert Road that punches well above its weight on flavour — think decent pizzas and smash burgers that reviewers genuinely rave about, all at fairly casual prices. It's more of a dine-in or takeaway joint than a sit-down restaurant, so the atmosphere is relaxed and unfussy, which can actually work nicely with little ones in tow. Highchairs are generally available and the place is easy to get into with a buggy, and there's a kids' menu to keep younger appetites happy.
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.
