Italian · Canary Wharf
The Pizza Room in Poplar turns out generously topped pizzas with a light, crunchy base — the kind that actually gets eaten rather than picked apart — and the team are happy to swap toppings around without any fuss, which is handy when you've got fussy eaters in tow. It's a relaxed, accessible spot with highchairs and a kids' menu, and there's outdoor space if you need a bit of room to breathe after the meal. Vegans are well catered for too, and with buggies getting in and out easily, it's a genuinely practical choice for families in East London.
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.
