Food Scene
Great for parents during nice weather days, they have a huge fenced area where kids always find others to play with while enjoying a great drink and food. Only downside, menu is limited in the picnic area, but you will find something.

Just plain good food and menu for the littles. Time to time, its a little "picey" (how Oliver said spicy), so just stick with a quesadilla and you'll all eat great! They offer dirty meats and more for the adventurous palettes. And their are always kids around.

LOVE some good Bar-B-Q and of course fried okra! This is another awesome place to feed the whole family on a budget! We usually get a platter, and a veggie platter and feeds our family of 4!

Great selection, good food, good prices. This is a great place to go when you're just needing some nourishment. Also very picnic friendly if you want to get a few sampler plates and go to the park or Duke Gardens.

Small plates, and great beer! Kids are there, but we usually leave them at home because there's alot of traffic and mostly your younger generation of adults. This place is great late though when you need a little bite after hopping around town.

Pastries and Cinnamon rolls oh my!!!!! Need I say more? Right in the 5 points area downtown, you cant miss it with the beautiful wheat mural above their building. And, if you walk to the right around the corner you can take a look at one of mine!

Its coffee and apparently people love this place. I personally do not because its crampy and pretentious. But for now, until my sister opens her shop- this is a place to get a good artisan coffee.

Yes! if I visited Chapel Hill more, this is where you'd find me hiding out with my sketchbook and coffee! The ambiance is awesome, tucked back off the road so safe for littles to play in a small grassy area while you catch up with a friend

My favorite! If you make it before 6:30 you can enjoy an exquisite choice from Prix Fix menu. They're a little dense on reservations....

Drinks & Nightlife
While a great Brewery, still ideal for kids!
fenced in area, and a food truck is usually always parked in front. Our guys love it because of the $1 "scoops" trays. They have a selection of sweet and saltys to choose from, and kids drinks. There are always friendly four legged kids there too!

So much fun! This place looks a little sketchy from outside, but once in there are friendly tenders, a diverse group of people, boccie ball, pool table, darts, and that game where you slide pucks on a long wooden table with sand (:-) plenty of seating.
