Indian · Bloomsbury
Poppadom Indian Kitchen brings well-priced, flavourful Indian cooking to a clean, nicely decorated space just off Tavistock Place — reviewers consistently praise the welcoming staff and their willingness to guide you through the menu, including a Goa-inspired selection worth exploring. It's a practical spot for families, with highchairs available and buggies able to get in without a struggle, and there are vegan options on the menu for plant-based diners. There's no outdoor seating, and parents of little ones with peanut allergies should have a careful chat with the team before ordering, as several dishes contain peanuts.
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.
