Eating out as a family

La Cage aux Sports

It is wiser to avoid nights featuring important sporting events because the restaurant then tends to be very loud and beer-oriented. Otherwise, you can choose from 8 meals that include a drink and a dessert for an affordable price on the children’s menu. On Sundays, children under 12 eat free all day (one free kid’s meal with the purchase of an adult meal). Play rooms are also available in many restaurants.

Giorgo

You can choose between 4 kids’ meals that all include a drink and ice cream for $ 7.95. In half the restaurants, there is also a play to keep your little ones busy while they’re waiting for their meal. From Wednesday to Sunday, a makeup artist is there to entertain the kids.
