On the face of it, Chuku’s isn’t a particularly baby friendly restaurant, with limited space for pushchairs, a slightly awkward step to negotiate at the front door, and no baby changing facilities. However, this place is so special that it’s worth the extra effort, and the staff are extremely accommodating, happy to advise on which dishes are suitable for little ones and which are a little too spicy. Chuku’s describes itself as ‘the world’s first Nigerian tapas restaurant’, with a mouthwatering menu that has just as much to offer vegans and vegetarians as it does carnivores, and all the meat on the menu is halal. Highlights include fiery chicken ata din din, colourful egusi bowls and hearty jollof quinoa, a modern take on a West African staple. Highchairs are provided, but do contact the restaurant in advance if you’re visiting with a baby.
