Restaurant · Hammersmith
Wagamama's Hammersmith spot sits inside a characterful converted fire station on Shepherds Bush Road, serving up the chain's familiar bowls of ramen, katsu curry and stir-fries in a lively, open-plan setting. It's a genuinely family-friendly place to bring little ones — highchairs are on hand, the restaurant is easy to navigate with a buggy, and there's a dedicated kids' menu to keep younger diners happy. Vegan grown-ups are well catered for too, and the informal, buzzy atmosphere means nobody's going to bat an eyelid at a bit of noodle-related mess.
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.
