Kids are notoriously picky eaters. It can be tough convincing them to eat foods that aren’t shaped like nuggets! We’ve all experienced the frustration of paying for a meal that our child has barely nibbled at. Fortunately, there are quite a few restaurants in the region that offer free (or inexpensive) meals to kids as long as there is a paying adult to accompany them. Keep in mind these offers can change without notice, so it’s always a good idea to contact the restaurant in advance.
