  1. Mr Gattis Pizza offers a kids eat free buffet on Wednesday night. I also heard Clear Springs Restaurant offers KEF on Tuesday night. Thank you for putting a list together. I refer to it often!

  2. McAlisters has changed their kid’s meals to strictly $1.99 each. It’s still a great deal for an entree, a side, and a package of cookies. Thank you for this list. We use it often! God Bless!!

    1. Thanks for letting me know, Melody. I really appreciate it, and I’ve updated my listing to reflect that change.

  3. I wanted to let you know that Slim Chicken and Freebirds both have kids eat free on Sundays. Mercados has kids eat free on Mondays.

    1. Thanks so much, Paula. I’m in the process of updating my list right now. I knew about the first two (thanks to other readers), but not about Mercados. I appreciate you passing that information along to me!

      1. Walk-On’s Bistreaux & Bar in Tyler has kids eat free on Tuesday’s 5:00-100:00pm with adult meal purchase. I saw this advertised on the table there and also I just called to verify it. Enjoy!

    1. Thanks for letting me know, Ryan. I’ll take them off the list. Sadly, my little boy just won a free dinner for four from Double Dave’s as a door prize at a Christmas party last week! I guess we should have used it right away, huh?

    Kid’s Eat FREE Every Tuesday. Limit One FREE Kid’s Meal Per Adult Entr?e Purchase

    Nights: Tues |
    Applebee’s

    1. Thanks for letting me know, Dansel. I called to verify that information and will add it to the list. You wrote me about free kids meals at The Diner, too, but that offer has expired. The Diner closes at 2:00 every day and kids who eat there have to pay for their meals, just like the adults. 🙁

  5. Love this webpage… Thank you… I don’t have all the details, but Rounders Pizza has Tuesday night kids eat free…

    1. Thanks for tipping me off about that one, Dansel. I’ll call to get the full scoop and add it to the list if the offer is ongoing. I appreciate your writing to let me know about it.

  6. I just received an email that kids eat free all day on Wednesday at Clear Springs for the month of September. It’s one kid per adult entree with max of two children. Expires September 28.

  7. You guys should add military discounts for our veterans. Some do discounts with valid ID, some require in full uniform FYI.

    1. That’s a great idea, Andrew, and I may someday do that. In the meantime, I found a pretty comprehensive list here. And I can tell you from the days that my husband was in the Army Reserves that many stores/ restaurants/ hotels that extend discounts to veterans and servicemen do not advertise that fact, so be sure to ask!

  8. Thanks for letting me know, Lindsey. They were still honoring it the last time I checked, but that was about 4 months ago. I’ve taken them off the list now.

  9. I learned this evening that Applebee’s does not honor kids eat free on Tuesdays. The employee verified the change was recent with new management.

    1. Thanks for letting me know, Natalie. I’ve changed the listing to reflect that fact. Just found out 3Z Azian Cuizine lets kids eat free on Tuesdays, though, so you’ll have to check that one out. Maybe we’ll see you there!

  10. Steak and shake has a kids eat free for every $8 or so spent. I think its both Sunday and Saturday. Thank you for compiling this list, it was a huge help for us when we were moving and had to eat out.

    1. Thanks so much for letting me know, Caitlin. Steak-n-Shake is within biking distance from our house. Maybe we’ll see you there! Glad you found our list helpful. I’ve updated now it to include this offer, too.

  11. You may want to check your listings and update them. I went to Applebee’s last night and they told me it was one child free per one adult. I showed them this and they honored it, thankfully. But they said it’s supposed to be one for one. Thanks!

  12. On the Border has a kids eat free day on Mondays this summer. They sent me an
    email about it.

    Also, I saw a sign in front of Traditions that kids eat free on Monday, Tuesdays and
    Wednesdays.

    Just wanted to let you know…..I enjoy your website.
