Restaurant · Finsbury Park
Sabiib brings generous, flavour-packed Somali cooking to Green Lanes, and the portions are genuinely enormous — regulars report that a platter for two comfortably feeds four, so it's brilliant value for a family meal out. The calm, nicely decorated dining room has no background music, which makes conversation easy and keeps the atmosphere relaxed for little ones and grown-ups alike. Highchairs and baby-changing facilities are on hand, the restaurant is easy to navigate with a buggy, and vegan options are available; halal food is also offered here.
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.
