Here's a list of some of some of the places in the Bay Area we like to eat with our kids. Check the current schedule to meet up with us sometime! Barclays Pub (Oakland) - Barclays has two locations, one in Rockridge and one at Jack London Square. Several of the kids in East Bay Dads learned to walk by the kegs at the Rockridge location. Good pub food, salads, and excellent beers.
Bo's BBQ (Lafayette) - BBQ joint in Lafayette (yes, BBQ in Lafayette. Who'da thunk?). Lotsa artsy stuff, including live music -- but who can hear that over screaming kids? Cato's (Oakland) - Just another Oakland pub with good food and excellent beers. Europa Hofbrau (Orinda) - Definitely the cheesiest place in Orinda, with a place in back for kids, with violent video games, a climbing structure and slide, and big tables to eat at. Sort of like The Jungle, but smaller (and with decent food and beer choices, and no pee-soaked ball pits). It's one block south of the Orinda Theater. Lanesplitter Pub (Berkeley and Oakland) - Good thin crust pizza, plus they've got vegan ricotta for the thick crust pizza. And great beers. Lawrence Hall of Science (Berkeley) - The Lawrence Hall of Science (LHS) is more than a great indoor kids science musuem; it's also got a very good cafe with the best view of any restaurant in the East Bay. Pyramid Breweries (Berkeley & Walnut Creek) - Loud, kid friendly and lots of beer choices. The New Zealander (Alameda) - Good food, good Kiwi beers (from New Zealand, not made with kiwis), and a kids' play area in the corner! Triple Rock (Berkeley) - The shuffleboard game is gone, but the beer is as excellent as ever, and the food is just fine. |
