Kids Eat FREE (or cheap) in SE Rochester, NY

By Meg Brunson, Macaroni Kid Pittsford-SE Rochester September 25, 2016

The only thing we like more than going out to eat, is saving money when we go out to eat!  A lot of websites have Kids Eat Free lists, but I wondered how accurate they were, and found that they were not very accurate at all.  I verified all of these deals myself on 7/13/15.  Deals may change at the discretion of the individual restaurants at any time without notice - so, you may still want to confirm the deal before visiting the restaurant.

I have listed the deals by day first.  Following the daily break down, I have the details of the participating restaurants and any other "fine print" that the restaurant shared with me.  In order to receive nearly all of these deals, an adult must purchase a meal - not just an appetizer, for example.  Often times, drinks may not be included with the kids meals, so please plan accordingly.  And, as the wife of a Server, I also want to remind you that when you tip, if should always be on the total BEFORE DISCOUNTS.  So, add those free meals onto the bill total before you figure out the tip! Your Server thanks you!
