One of the things that blew me away when our children were old enough to enjoy their own kid’s meal at a restaurant, was how much their meals drove the bill up! To help keep your dining bill down, NJ Mom has compiled a list of more than forty of the best restaurants throughout the state of New Jersey where kids eat free every day of the week. Bon Appetit!

I live in Monmouth county, in Keyport nj can you tell me where in my area where the kids eat free. There is an ihop, an Applebee’s, TGI FRIDAYS, Perkins, but they don’t offer the kids eat free even if you buy a meal.
What do most restaurants consider a child? 10 and under??
Hi Gail! I actually made some phone calls and it looks like the TGI Fridays has free kids nights on Monday & Tuesdays! IHOP is on Fridays. Appelbees usually does it on holidays and the next one is Easter.
I think it probably depends on the location. I have seen some places 10 and some as old as 12.
Tuesday is character night at the red oak in Hazlet. Kids eat free with a purchase of an adult meal
Would like to know of any places that have kids eat free for easter … i live in toms river, ocean county .
thanks for the info! just for others, not every smashburger has a kids eat free night. this list stated smashburger for tuesday nights and i called my local store and they don’t have one at all. bummer for us!!!
Can you please tell me what area is free in the Middlesex and Union County for kids under 10?
Any events in August coming up?
