Kids Eat Free & Other Dallas Dining Deals for Families

4

It’s the start of another school year and everyone’s calendar just got a lot more jam-packed.  And yet strangely, this phenomenon happens around the same time every single day: little children and spouses get hungry and want to know what’s for dinner.

Dallas Kids Eat Free #dmbkidseatfreeWhat to do?

Dallas Moms Blog has had your back before with various creative ideas for whipping up sustenance on the family kitchen table.  We’ve brainstormed freezer meals, introduced the idea of sharing dinner with your neighbors, suggested new recipe ideas, and explored meal-kit delivery programs.

But, sometimes you gotta wave the white flag of “we’re eating out!”  

Weeknights in Dallas are great for family dining because there are so many restaurants who offer deals on their off-peak nights. We’ve rounded up offers on this blog before.  Since it was such a hit, we’re updating our list of favorite Dallas dining deals.  (With some of these offers, it’s actually cheaper to eat out than in!)

**Individual restaurants may change their offers, and some restrictions may apply. Make sure to call ahead to ensure that the offers are still valid!**
