It’s a dinner date!

Penélope Cruz, husband Javier Bardem and sister Mónica Cruz proved there’s no such thing as a third-wheel when the trio stepped out at a London restaurant.

Cruz and company, decked out in coordinated black outfits, were spotted at the members-only Groucho Club Tuesday night.

The Pirates of the Caribbean actress, 36, who is expecting her first child this winter, bared her baby bump during the meal, and is currently in the U.K. to film the adventure movie.

But since ideas and regulations about taking care of baby are always changing, the pair released a second edition last month (American Academy of Pediatrics, $16).

The book reads like a veritable baby bible, with stories on feeding, crying, sleeping, car safety and even…well, what you’ll find in your little one’s diaper.
