Category: Kids Eat Free

Kids Eat Free has got to be one of the greatest concepts that the hospitality industry has ever come up with! What started as a way to get more people into pubs and hotels on quieter nights of the week has become a staple across restaurants, cafes, pubs and hotels across Adelaide. If you’re a new parent or perhaps have just never come across Kids Eat Free promos before here’s how it generally works (check specific venues for their T&Cs obviously): A café, pub, hotel or restaurant nominates a particular night of the week (or sometimes multiple nights!) as “Kids Eat Free Night”. For every main adult meal you purchase you get free kids meal. Easy! Sometimes it might just be the meal, or sometimes it might come with a drink, colouring book or even dessert, depending on the establishment. We love a Kids Eat Free Night because a) who doesn’t love getting something for free? b) sometimes it feels like such a waste to pay for Kids Meals when they barely touch it and c) usually if a restaurant or pub is offering Kids Eats Free promos, they are a family friendly spot where it won’t matter if your kids make a bit of noise or spill their juice. From the north to the south, to the east to the west of Adelaide, have a look below for our favourite family friendly EATS venues that are offering Kids Eat Free deals.
