Indian · Crouch End
Puraan is a fully vegetarian and vegan Indian restaurant on Turnpike Lane, serving the kind of food that genuinely impresses — think paani puri, breadfruit curry, okra fries and chilli gobi, all prepared with real care and served by a warm, welcoming team. The dining room is spacious with a relaxed atmosphere, and while there's no dedicated children's menu or baby-changing facilities, highchairs are available and the restaurant is easy to navigate with a buggy. It's a brilliant spot for families who love bold, plant-based flavours, and with confirmed vegan options throughout the menu, it works well for mixed dietary households too.
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.
