Steakhouse · Finchley
Sima's Persian Grill on Ballards Lane serves up beautifully tender chicken and kebabs in a calm, unhurried atmosphere that families seem to genuinely relax into. There's no dedicated children's menu, though the straightforward grilled dishes tend to go down well with younger eaters, and highchairs are available for little ones. The restaurant is easy to navigate with a buggy and has some outdoor space, making it a pleasant spot for a relaxed family meal.
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.
