Toy Talk #18: Coyote Blog
I’m in London so I probably should make a list of places I recommend, but sadly, I haven’t been much of anywhere yet! Being a resident vs. being a tourist are two different states of affairs. Luckily, Warren Meyer of Coyote Blog has made a list of places he loves about London where he recently went with his two children - ages 9 and 12.
Here’s what he said about having kids in England:
I posted earlier about the strange bias against kids out in the English countryside. We saw little of this in London. A few hotels would not let us rent rooms if we had children, but otherwise no problems. Restaurants were all very accommodating, many with children’s menus (which is a big change over a decade ago). Also, restaurants and shows are quite informal so that we had a lot of nice dinners without taking any really nice clothes. For restaurants, we particularly liked Ping Pong (Trendy Chinese dim sum), Yauatcha (also trendy chinese dim sum) and Lucio (Italian).
We’ve also had a positive family experience in London. One of the better known child-friendly areas is Chiswick in West London (W4). It’s also known as “buggy town” (buggy as in strollers). The high road has a kids and baby Gap but no Gap for adults so you can imagine that it’s very family friendly!
