Italian · Willesden
Sacro Cuore is a neighbourhood pizzeria on Chamberlayne Road where the smell of properly authentic Italian pizza hits you the moment you walk through the door — regulars rave about the buffalina and tartufata, and the desserts are apparently worth saving room for. It's a relaxed, unpretentious spot that's easy to visit with little ones: highchairs are available, the entrance is buggy-friendly, and there's an outdoor space to spill out into. The drinks menu is on the shorter side and the salads have had a mixed reception, but if pizza is the mission, families tend to leave very 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.
