Thanks for sharing, I always thought it was a nice surprise when a restaurant would allow children to eat for free. This will definately encourage my eating out on those days when I really don't want to with the kids.
Also Chick-fil-A in Oxnard (on Rose ave...across from walmart) does a 'family night 'every Friday night from 5-8 where kids eat free AND there is always a free special craft or activity for the kids
Hey...this is great!!! thank you
Thanks. Tacone (camarillo) deal is really good with no restrictions. It's available all the time and it comes with kids drink.
Any chance you could make a by-the-day version of this? It would be great to post on the fridge!
ggirl44: I'll look into that. Good idea. But will require a bit more work to update. Thanks!
Alamo in Newbury Park and Agoura Sunday and Monday night.
I've found Islands in N.P. to be very flexible with the kids eat free policy. My wife has gone alone with as many as 5 kids, and they've all eaten free, and it's not uncommon to see tables with one adult and multiple children.
Good to hear Jonathan! Perhaps the true test would be to send the Octomom to Islands when the kids are a bit older. That'll really put the flexibility of that policy to test!
