I love Mexican food and I think this is the best British Mexican restaurant chain I've been to in a very long while.

If the name already rings a bell, it's probably because you've seen Wahaca's co-founder, Cheltenham born Thomasina Miers on Channel 5's Mexican Food Made Simple tv cookery program or maybe you remember her as BBC 2's 2005 Masterchef winner.

For under £20 we had the Wahaca Street Food Selection for 2 people: 3 pork pibil tacos, 3 winter vegetable tacos, 1 large huitlacoche quesadilla, 2 black bean tostadas and 2 chicken taquitos with green rice & black beans.

Unlike some British Mexican restaurant offerings that appear to come straight from the microwave or the deep fat frier, these were cooked to order and packed with fresh vegetables.

A very slick operation that has been replicated in 11 locations in the South East, 13 if you count the 2 Mexican Mobile Eating vans.

Branches in Piccadilly, Guildhall, Seven Dials, Spitalfields; thehawksmoor.com   Pizza Pilgrims, Soho There aren’t any baby chairs at this little street food joint-turned-pizza restaurant, but children often enjoy sitting and eating their Margheritas at the glass-topped football table.

189 Upper Street, Islington, N1 1RQ; thefishandchipshop.uk.com   Gracelands, Kensal Rise Run by one of London’s friendliest couples, this cheery café puts on activities for children and is happy to host hordes of little feet while the mums and dads get stuck into the delicious menu.

Branches in Portobello, Carnaby Street; therumkitchen.com   Franco Manca, various venues Always full of noise and people moving about so children, screaming or otherwise, just add to the atmosphere.

49 Chiswell Street, EC1Y 4SA; thejuggedhare.com   Wahaca, various venues Possibly the friendliest of all when it comes to bringing children along, with an adorable kids' menu and staff particularly understanding with spillages.

Branches in Canary Wharf and Charlotte Street; rokarestaurant.com   For well-behaved children The Ivy, Covent Garden No baby menu as such, but the chefs will happily send out smaller versions of existing dishes to suit younger appetites – and there are high chairs too.
