Relaxed family-friendly dining in East London

Finding great pubs and restaurants in East London is easy. Finding ones that cater just as well to families as they do to foodies? Not so much.

The Kids’ Table lets you have a stress-free family meal out with our supervised, creative children’s corners. While the little ‘uns are kept busy with arts and crafts, tabletop games and activities, you can relax during your family meal out.

No compromise on the venue (or the menu) for you, and no boredom for them.
