Kid Restaurants in New York City

Whether you have one child or six, finding kid-friendly dining establishments can be a challenge. Finding restaurants that accommodate children is certainly helpful for parents who would love to not have to eat at home for 18 consecutive years, but locating restaurants that specifically target kids is even better. New York City's vast array of eateries includes several kid-friendly restaurnts.

Peanut Butter & Co. Sandwich Shop
- Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches have been a staple item in kids' lunchboxes for generations. Peanut Butter & Co Sandwich Shop in Greenwich Village takes this lunch classic to a whole new level. They serve nearly a dozen varieties of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and childhood favorite snacks such as "ants on a log," a combination of celery, peanut butter, and raisins. The only downside is that the restaurant space is small. Weather permitting, you can buy your lunch to go, and head to nearby Washington Square Park to enjoy it. Avoiding the lunch rush may help you land a table faster if you have a large group.
