So we all love a good deal, especially on a kids meal! There is nothing more annoying than to find a kids’ menu with $6.99 meals. This adds up quickly. A few weeks back, we asked for your help in compiling a good list of free kids meals in Charlotte. Thanks to everyone who answered the call because we received lots of great feedback! I tried to confirm them all by calling, but to be honest, the people who answered the phone were not always up to speed on their promotions, so I have done the best I can. I have listed the kids eat free nights by night rather than by restaurant. So it’s easy to skim depending on what night you want to go out. Many of the restaurants had restrictions on the promotion, I tried to list them all but if you really want to know and not get any surprises, I suggest you call in advance.
I hope now that we have this list that we can continue to add to it to keep it current. If you find a new one or have an experience with one, please leave a comment for all to see.
A special thanks to the Smarty readers who submitted restaurants including: Kristin Dodson, Rachael Cunningham, Tammy Herrmann, Katherine LeSage, Liza Burlingame, Holly Johnson.

Thanks for this information! Took my 1 year old twins to Red Rocks last night and will not be going back. $5 a kids meal and not even that much food and service was way to slow for dinner out with children. We even went at 5:30 to avoid any crowds. Any other places in SouthPark or Sotuh Charlotte area that are good for little ones?
Zapatta’s will actually do a free meal for every child that you buy an adult meal… We have gone on many a Sundays!! Try their fish tacos, yummmm!
Jason’s Deli on Park Rd. is great for a quick meal with kids!
Just wanted to clarify on Zapata’s (we ate there tonight). Kids eat free on Sun and it’s per paying adult entree-not per table. So bring as many adults as you like!
Sundays at Souper Salad on Independence in Matthews * Free for kids 4 & under. * $2.49 for kids 5-12. * Limit 2 free kids per paying adult.
Mama Fu’s has 99 cent kids’ meals on Wednesdays and Saturdays. On Wednesdays they also have a magician/balloon-animals.McAlister’s (at least the Park Rd location… maybe others) has free kids’ meals Monday-Friday after 5pm.Captain Steve’s on Monroe Road has free kids’ meals on Wednesday evenings and free baby shrimp meal daily for children 2 and under.
