Thursdays
Quaker Steak & Lube - Kids eat free on Thursdays
Earth Fare - No longer offers free kids meals on Thursdays. I know many of you are familiar with this, so I wanted to post a heads up if you didn't know that they changed to $3 kids meals every day - which would be a rude awakening if you went in expecting the six kids meals for free as they have been for a couple years.
Saturdays
Steak n' Shake - Kids eat free on Saturdays and Sundays (all day) All locations (It's a free kids meal for every $8 that an adult spends on their own food)
Sundays
Old Bag of Nails - Kids eat free all day on Sundays (with every adult meal of $6.99 or more) - all locations (note: we ordered an appetizer that was $6.99, along with our two adult meals and were pleasantly surprised to find out when our check arrived that it counted towards a third free kids meal - given that we have THREE kids! It was great! I assume this is standard practice - and a nice little bonus!)
Steak n' Shake - Kids eat free on Saturdays and Sundays (all day) All locations (It's a free kids meal for every $8 that an adult spends on their own food)
Las Margaritas - Kids eat free on Sundays, (all day) Reynoldsburg locations. Kids also receive free balloons. (Westerville and Canal Winchester are kids eat free on Mondays)
**Special addition: Rusty Bucket - has a kids reading program - Bucketeer Bookworms. Pick up a bookmark tracker there, and after every five books read bring it in to redeem for free kids meal (with the purchase of an adult meal). BTW, they have call ahead seating too, which is really great when you have impatient waiters (children) like me!.**
"Kids" is noted by their menu age - most are 10 and under, some are 12 and under.
