Food Scene
It's in the park, next to a lake and has absolutely brilliant food (and a bakery shop). If you never tried a full english breakfast you can safely relish it here. All super fresh, home made and special.

Pidgin

This is amazing. Good food (from breakfast/brunch/lunch/tea) right on the tow path of the regents canal. I love this cafe. Super friendly owner (ex food writer for New Your Times) and staff! Bit careful with the bikes etc that are passing. Watch your small kids. Kids best in 'picnic area' to the left of the cafe.

Good, and affordable, vietnamese food.
Try summer rolls sweet potatoes fritters etc. The mains are good, but the starters are why we go there!
It is very low key, so easy with big groups and kids. No outdoor space.
