A Guide to ‘Kids Eat Free’ Meals in Colorado Springs

5

My husband travels for work sometimes and 5:00 P.M. never fails to creep up on me. Suddenly, I have two hungry monsters on my hands (three if I count my own hungry self!) and a refrigerator with no leftovers. While sometimes I can easily just whip up a simple dinner, often times I like to take the boys (and myself) out. And because I’m rather frugal, I’d rather pay nothing (or at least very little) for them to eat.

I can’t be the only one like this, so I’ve compiled some of my family’s favorite places around Colorado Springs to score a free kid’s meal (or sometimes even two!).

Before I give them to you, please promise to do the following:

  • CALL AHEAD to make sure the restaurant is still offering this deal AND that it is still on the day listed.
  • TIP YOUR SERVER according to the amount you would have paid if the kids weren’t free. Just because you are paying less for your meal doesn’t mean that your server is working less.
  • COMMENT BELOW if there are restaurants we’ve missed that you’ve been to that offer a free (or cheap) kid’s meal on a day of the week.

Megan
Although her Kansas roots and upbringing are strong, Megan has proudly called Colorado Springs home since the winter of 2008 when she and her husband returned after serving for two years as Peace Corps volunteers in Eastern Europe. Her roles in life include wife, mother, friend, and teacher, and she feels honored by each of these hats she gets to wear. With a background in Secondary English Education, Megan spends her days working with junior high students, an age group she absolutely adores. After work, she returns home to her husband and two sons who enjoy playing board games, building with Legos, or simply snuggling on the couch and watching Jeopardy. When she isn't wearing her teaching or mom hats, Megan looks forward to spending time with friends, working in her garden, or indulging her introverted side by relaxing with a good book on her porch with a hot (often re-heated multiple times) cup of coffee. She does her best to find balance in life and live every moment to the fullest, enjoying them each as they come and reminding herself that every day of life is truly a gift, one that isn't ever guaranteed.
