This is a forever favorite of mine. Before kids, I would go for margaritas with my girl friends and now that I have a toddler, I can appreciate it as a family friendly place. more

It's not quite white-tablecloth but very good food for grownups with a pretty good kids menu, crayons for the kids, etc. The Cleveland Park has outdoor seating. Have not visited the other 2 locations (Bethesda & Tyson's Corner) but would imagine they are just as kid-friendly. more

This is a local chain. It serves good food, has a nice atmosphere and the Chevy Chase location has trains/planes/race cars as decore. A definite plus for young diners. This Chevy Chase location is our favorite as the service is reliably good. The service in the downtown location is always sub-par and can be a disaster when dining with toddlers. more

This is a "special ocassion" restaurant for us, one of our favorite places BK (before Kids). We love the Sunday Jazz brunch but were not sure if it would be a good place to take the little guy. They had a New Year's Day brunch and we had the day off so we took a chance. more

Sequoia is not usually what you'd think of as a kid place, but we like it as an adult restaurant suitable to take children. It offers a few child friendly features : Parking lot in the building, big windows, and water outside, and lots of airplanes flying by on their way to/from National Airport and it's pretty loud already, so a kid won't really disturb anyone. The food is good (not great, but solidly good) and the view is terrific. You can walk along the river before and/or after eating. A few river boat tours dock there too in the event you want to go for a ride. more

This family restaurant is popular with everyone from families with young children, the grandparents, and the hipster crowd. The funky tin-ceilinged spot screens old black and white movies on the wall, the menu is a newspaper and they serve classic American dishes with a modern twist. Even better is their bakery case full of homemade pop-tarts, twinkies and snowballs, and their handmade thick shakes in tons of flavors for the kids (or with alcohol for the adults). more

This is not exactly an activity but it is one of our favorite stops in Georgetown - especially after a day of window shopping. The bittersweet chocolate ice cream is our favorite. There is outdoor seating. more
