Let Someone Else Cook Tonight (and the Kids Eat Free!)
It’s Tuesday night.
As you pick up one child from school and hurry the second one off to gymnastics, you realize that you forgot something important: dinner.
Your fridge at home contains two apples, half a gallon of milk, and enough leftovers for maybe one person.
No matter how you do the culinary calculations, none of these add up to a family dinner.
As your little one twists and tumbles, you brainstorm food options: grocery store and then cook dinner? Takes too long, and requires bringing two tired kids.
Order pizza? A viable option, but this assumes everyone wants pizza (and will agree on toppings). Sit down restaurant? Big on variety but could also be big on cost.
What if you had a list of kids eat free restaurants with free (or cheap) kids’ meals and deals to make this process easier?
How Kids Eat Free Works
Going out to dinner can be both fun and affordable when you take advantage of special kids’ pricing.
These deals are a great way to stretch the budget while still enjoying a night out with your family.
This verified list provides over 20 restaurants that offer “kids eat free” (or discounted) promotions for every day of the week.
Please note that these deals only apply when you dine in the restaurant (excludes carryout and delivery).
Restaurant deals and offers can change without notice: please call ahead to confirm the deal you want is still on.
