Coastal Flats kids menu

I recently moved to Maryland and so I will now devote this blog to kids menus in the Maryland/Virginia/DC area. Coastal Flats is a local restaurant chain with locations in Gaithersburg and Tysons Corner. They serve a mix of salads, seafood and classic dishes with a seaside bent. On Sundays they serve brunch and every table gets a bread basket filled with beignets (they call them something else but they are essentially beignets with cinnamon sugar. To see the full menu go to the Coastal Flats site.

Dave & Busters kids menu Summerlin

Downtown Summerlin is now home to a Dave & Busters! The giant bar and restaurant features arcade games on steroids that use reloadable cards as currency. The cards also keep track of the tickets your kids win so that you don't have to carry them around and find them in your purse for the next year. The restaurant offers a couple meal deals that include $10 in game credits and if you sign up for a a rewards card you can get an extra $10.

The tickets can actually be redeemed for some decent stuff. For an expenditure of around $20, your kid will probably have enough tickets to get a play ball, small stuffed animal or some other trinket that is waaay better than the stuff you haul home form Chuck E. Cheese.

The fries are great too.
