Ranking Chain Restaurant Kids Menus From Worst To Best
BY Elettra Pauletto
12. Panera Bread
The kid's menu at Panera is more of an afterthought than a concerted effort to please kids or parents, but it can be a convenient option.
The menu consists of dishes like sandwiches and broccoli cheddar soup, along with a side dish of chips, an apple, or a baguette.
11. Olive Garden
Olive Garden's kid's menu includes chicken tenders and macaroni and cheese, but it also offers a wider selection of pasta than many other restaurants.
Almost all of these kids' menu items use copious amounts of dairy, which may be an issue if your child is even slightly intolerant of dairy.
10. Chili's
The kid's menu from Chili's isn't that different from what the adults get: various types of burgers, pizzas, fried chicken, pasta, and chocolate desserts with ice cream.
However, the prices are around $7 for most dishes. Unfortunately, there are no veggie dishes, and burgers and fried food can do a number on someone's system.
9. Chick-fil-A
Thanks to its speed of service, the play area, and the enticing fried chicken, Chick-fil-A is a beloved fast food chain that parents and children can enjoy.
The kid's menu provides a variety of chicken options, including fried and grilled chicken, as well as plenty of delicious milkshakes to choose from.
8. Uno's
One of the great things about pizza is that kids tend to like them no matter what. As such, a trip to Uno's means you are already starting out on the right foot.
Uno's has a dedicated kid's menu, which includes a thin-crust cheese or pepperoni pizza option at less than $7, a build-your-own pizza option, and various pastas.
