Atlanta's Best Kid-Friendly Restaurants

"Eight-year-olds aren’t going to understand a 45-minute wait for eggs and pancakes, no matter how fluffy they are. Our advice for avoiding sidewalk squabbles is beating hungry Inman Park residents to Folk Art’s host stand. Come by 9:30am, and you should easily score a booth in a dining room covered in stickers, knickknacks, and a generally upbeat vibe. Known for taking creative liberties in the kitchen (did someone say grit fritters?), the restaurant tempts the hungry with chocolate s’mores waffles while those craving lunch can go with the slightly tamer hot dog or fried shrimp.  " - demarco williams, nina reeder, jacinta howard
