Kids Eat Free

Where kids eat free (or close to it) around Charlotte, organized by day of the week. Deals change all the time, so I don't copy lists from around the internet. I confirm every deal with the restaurant itself, and each one shows the date I last checked. I add more restaurants as I verify them, so check back often.

Last updated: October 29, 2026. Deals can end or change without notice, so when in doubt, call the restaurant before you go.
