51 Main Street

03.11.2014 By: Eliza, MiniBury Founder

51main1well hello sleeper kid friendly restaurant! While 51 Main Street may not be the first restaurant you think of when venturing out to dinner with the kids, we know you’d be pleasantly surprised if you go. Here’s why:

Every Wednesday is Kids Eat Free night at 51 Main Street. No, seriously! And if you don’t make it there on a Wednesday, their kids’ menu is very reasonably priced.  Our little ones recommend the grilled cheese, which came with fresh fruit!

Did you also know that the benches are great for containing squirmy toddlers? Plus the basket of toddler toys in the front window will keep them entertained when sitting still simply isn’t happening! We also love the collection of card and board games in the front of the restaurant that can make any meal into a memorable family competition! What’s better than dinner out? Dinner out with happy, entertained kids.

Finally, our favorite part, their food and drinks are great. So you don’t have to feel as though you’ve sacrificed your dinner just because you chose a kid-friendly restaurant. It’s a win-win for everyone and that’s why we’re adding it to our Best Kept Secrets page!

We highly recommend 51 Main with one reservation: be sure to look at their live music schedule before you go. The space gets too loud for kids (and some adults) when bands start playing and the bands often start well before their scheduled performance time.

Eliza, MiniBury Founder

Hello, I’m Eliza. I founded MiniBury in 2012 because I had a hunch that I wasn't the only parent in Addison County missing fun family friendly events. I love the challenge of finding and sharing information about our community to other parents.
