I was just checking out the freebies section here on Smart Canucks and came across a great thread by Freebiechick. She has compiled a list of 19 Canadian restaurants where your kids can eat for free! She has even included the days of the week that the free kids meals are offered and the restrictions, if there are any.
This is an amazing post that I’m sure every parent out there will really appreciate. Eating out is great and it’s even better when it doesn’t have to cost you a small fortune.
So without further ado, here is the list that Freebiechick has compiled for us:
Applebee’s
Kids eat free on Wednesdays at participating restaurants.
Babaloo Restaurant
Kids eat free on Saturdays at participating restaruants.
Boston Pizza
Kids eat free any day of the week with an adult meal purchase of $10 or more at participating restaurants.
Canelli’s
Kids eat free on Sundays at participating restaurants.
Crabby Joes
Kids eat free on Sundays at participating restaurants.
Denny’s
Kids eat free on Tuesdays and Saturdays from 4-10 pm at participating restaurants.

My personal favorite is Hooters having free kids meals on weekends, so funny. Not really where I would take my son for dinner, but hey, too each their own. If you know of any other places that offer free kids meals, please feel free to add them into the comments section.
Thanks again to Freebiechick for the heads up on all the free kids meals!
Buffet des continents (Quebec) – kids eat free Sunday to Friday.
http://www.lebuffetdescontinents.com/en/index.php
My family loves this place – good food, good price. If we eat there on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday a dinner for four is less expensive than McDonalds.
Kids? Hmm… What about adolescents?
Thanks for posting this!!!
You would have to call your local restaurants to see what they consider a “kid” I guess. I would assume it’s under the age of 12 at the oldest and maybe under 10 at some.
Who would take their children to Hooters, or some place called Philthy McNasty’s? Sounds like great family dining! Why not take the Grandparents too?
I was hoping to bring my 3 year old there for his birthday after a private viewing of 50 Shades of Grey. Now that I feel mom shamed 😂😋 TOTALLY KIDDING!
For the Buffet des continents, it’s usualy 12 years and younger…
Sorry forgot to add, kids eat free when accompanied by an adult… If you are 1 adult and 2 kids – you will have to pay for a kids meal…
What’s wrong with taking a boy to Hooters? Heaven forbid he sees good looking women. I wish my parents weren’t all uptight about stuff like that. I might have become a guy who can actually talk to women instead of a coward that can’t even approach them.
Np for posting this! Enjoy 🙂
Thanks Maybe 🙂
@Lindemann : Seeing women in an arguably exploitative situation isn’t the best way to develop self-confidence. Pornography isn’t either, by the way.
^ True it won’t do anything for self-confidence but my point was that sheltering kids from even the slightest displays of sexuality (Hooters is pretty tame) is unnatural and harmful.
I wouldn’t even take my boyfriend to Hooters let alone my son. Lol.
frankie tomato has a kids free on tuesdays great resteraunt
Thats ridiculous, why would you even say that?? hooters?? fav place to take the kids too? your lame, this blog specifically should be aired on the news… don’t give bad rep to smart canucks.
im taking this to the ottawa sun media,about your poor judgement. Their children! not adults!
tnp, your grammar is giving a “bad rep” to smart canucks. Please learn the difference between the correct usage of ‘your’ and ‘you’re’, and ‘their’, ‘they’re’ and ‘there’. As well, learn when to use a period instead of a comma. And lastly, there’s something called an apostrophe!
Frankie Tomatto’s Monday Kids Eat Free (11 years and under) (1 Child per paying adult). Lunch and Dinner. http://www.frankietomatto.com
ive taken my daughter to hooters with my bf … she sees worst things on commericals or on the beach people are to uptight now a days she loved the deep fried pickles
Angel’s Diner also has kids eat Free during the week I believe.
Boston Pizza kids eat free is no more.
They are starting a new promotion where you donate $5 to BP charity and they give you 5 free kids meals…starts soon I believe.
Hooter’s is actually considered a “family” restaurant by many, including the corporation itself. I had many families visit me while working at Hooters, including quite a few kids birthday parties! The kids love taking pictures with all the girls. The uniform really isn’t that inappropriate – suggestive, yes, however children see that on tv, walking down the street or even in school! Moxie’s also has suggestive uniforms, in fact many of the restaurant and bar combinations have lower cut shirts for women as their uniform.
James Bonney already commented on this, but I’d like to second it: Boston Pizza does NOT have free kids meals no matter the expenditure of accompanying adults, and hasn’t for the past year or two.
Last year I was able to make a “Kids’ Help Phone” donation of $5, which provided us with a card for eight free kids meals (an amazing deal, as these are valued at $6.99 each). The back of the card states that the card cannot be used on the date of purchase, but our server at the time did allow it. This particular card expired on Sept. 30th, so I suspect that what James referred to above me is the same program, just fewer free meals (even one free meal is still a savings). YMMV for the use on date of purchase, and only some locations sell and honour these.
Hey thanks for the post, I have to take care of my nephews for a week this is going to save me some coin; and give me an excuse to go to hooters, besides the wings.
\rant
– And just a heads up as a previous poster said “moxies” is quite suggestive and they only hire based on looks (and a little skill) yet is still suggested as a mid to high end family establishment. The times are changing, for better or worse, who are we to judge?

Thanks again for the post.
Thanks for posting this!
Tony Rom’s advertises that kids eat free on Monday’s. Don’t forget to join their Birthday Club mailing list and get a free entree’ of $18.99 for free.
Jack Astor’s kids eat free on monday
Philthy McNasty’s is a great place – don’t judge by the name. Lots of families go there for dinner. Just don’t take them late at night when it turns into a club.
good topic. thanks for sharing knowledge
Join the kids birthday club at Lonestar and receive a coupon for free kids meal once a year.
What’s wrong with taking a child to Hooters? Most people take their children to the beach where women wear less clothing than the Hooters uniform. It’s shorts, a tank top and an owl logo. Hoot!!
We appreciate you finding the time to post something special concerning golf, 19 Canadian Restaurants Where Kids Can Eat for FREE!! Canada. This is a sport i really adore plus take pleasure in. Actively playing golf has changed into a throughout the world sport. The game of golf attire and the brand new golfing tees possess improved a great deal within the very last years that must be difficult to stick to. All over again, superb occupation and i am going to would suggest to any or all guys.
I just found out that they no longer offer free kids meals at Joey’s Only! : (
Kids free at IHOP every day after 4pm (with an accompanying adult).
In Québec, kids (12 and younger) eat free at “La cage aux sports” every sunday. Also kids eat free at Mikes every sunday. Of course, that is applicable when you buy an adult meal.
Boston Pizza in Medicine Hat doesn’t have free kids meals at all…whats up with that?
It’s appropriate time to make some plans for the long run and it’s time to be happy. I’ve learn this post and if I could I wish to suggest you some attention-grabbing things or advice. Maybe you could write subsequent articles regarding this article. I want to read more issues about it!
Your site should take Boston Pizza off showing kids eat free during the week. We went to Peterborough, last night , the kids meal is $6.99. Still not a bad deal.
I can’t believe the people saying how horrible it is to take their kids to hooters. I think the food sucks, so I wouldn’t go because of that. But they wear worse at Moxies, but because it isn’t called hooters it’s ok to bring your kids there. WOW!Anyways I work at Montana’s so you should bring your kids there Tuesday. Make sure you tip a little extra since your bill isn’t as high as it should be. ;)lol
At Boston Pizza you need to buy a card they stamp so kids can eat free. Just a heads up before you go thinking they are free.
