Th­­e Secret To Finding Child Friendly Restaurants

Or How My Two Young Children Made Me An Expert In Eating Out With Kids

If you have ever taken young children out to eat, you will already have a volume of horror stories to tell.

Like trying to squeeze your pram between tables that are so tightly positioned, it seems like there’s an army obstacle course in front of you. Or your mortification as your kids become bored and go in search of entertainment, to the detriment (and sometimes annoyance) of the other patrons. Or the menu of preservative laden food, offered as the Kids Menu.

It’s enough to turn you off going out as a family altogether!

But fear not. My two little diners have helped me become an expert in picking a kid friendly café in about 10 seconds flat. Seriously. And I found my friends were also a great source of information on family friendly places to eat, so I thought, this information needs to be shared!

The result is.... Eat Out With Kids: a growing guide to child friendly restaurants, cafes and pubs in around Australia, where your suggestions and opinions are welcomed and valued. Whether it’s a family lunch or dinner, or just coffee and cake; this guide will help avoid some of the dramas and skip straight to an enjoyable meal out.

To get started just choose your location on the drop down menu just above to the right. The use the star system and add your own comments on places already listed on the website. You can add your own favourite place with the Add Place option at the top right. Contribute to the site and become a part of the fun.

Or if your town isn't on the site yet, drop me a line, and it will be added quick smart.

Happy Dining!

PS Eat Out With Kids can’t guarantee your child will be a little angel when you eat out!! I can just offer a head start with your venue choice.
