Every dollar counts, right? Especially when you have more than one child. Keep a couple extra dollars in your wallet when you’re on the go: here’s where and when kids eat free in Delaware restaurants.
I’ve been sitting on this post for a while, trying to make it a really comprehensive list. What I’ve learned is this: not nearly so many restaurants offer kids eat free deals as they used to, and many only offer them for a limited time. Also, when you’re dealing with a franchise chain, not every location in that chain opts into nationally advertised deals.
In my efforts to confirm who does and who doesn’t, I kept having to delete some options because they would have expired. I’m now accepting that this will have to be a living, breathing document in need of ongoing updating, but I wanted to post what I can now so you can take advantage of these deals while they last.
After all, back to school season is expensive, and once kids become older they seemingly develop hollow legs and toes, capable of storing pounds and pounds of food. That can make eating out seriously pricey, especially if you have multiple eating machines.
Here are Delaware restaurants that we’ve confirmed currently offer kids eat free (or cheap) deals, but again, keep in mind that these can change at any time. Check before you go! And bookmark this page for easy reference.

- dining in
- choosing from the kids’ menu
- one free meal for every adult meal purchased
- drinks not included
- not valid with any other coupons or discounts
