Here Are 4 of Midland’s Most Kid-Friendly Restaurants

Let's talk about kid-friendly restaurants. This is not something I keep an eye out for personally, but I know it's a big deal for many of you. I follow a group on Facebook where someone asked about the best kid-friendly restaurants in Midland. They weren't talking about your usual fast-food places or typical kid favorites like McDonald's, Chucky Cheese, or Mr. Gatti's. We are talking about sit-down local eateries where you can be comfortable taking your children.

1. Blue Sky Texas

Blue Sky Texas is located on Loop 250 across from the old Bed Bath & Beyond and offers a very family-friendly atmosphere. The kids' menu offers mini-burgers, hot dogs, grilled cheese, and chicken bites. Available sides are fries, tater tots, Jello, or a fruit cup. According to Facebook user Darci, Blue Sky Texas has a sandbox play area on their outdoor patio.

2. Juji's Kitchen

Juji's Kitchen is located in the Claydesta Building off of Big Spring Street. They offer an amazing breakfast menu and for lunch, various options of burgers, sandwiches, and burritos. But the most interesting part is that some of their tables offer swings as seats. There is also a jungle to explore.

3. Mac's BBQ & Catering

Mac's BBQ is located at 2400 W Indiana Ave in Midland. Mac's offers tons of indoor and outdoor seating. They also have an outdoor playground for the kids to enjoy. Live music on Thursdays. Their menu offers all of your BBQ favorites, burgers, and chicken. If you haven't tried their mac and cheese, make sure you do.

4. Rooster's Backyard

Roosters Backyard is located on 307 in Greenwood. They have tons of indoor and outdoor seating. Arcade games inside and games to play outside. If you love a good round of cornhole, this is your place. They also have live music from time to time.
