Sip and Kranz, Portland

Address 901 NW 10th Ave., Portland, OR 97253 Map, Tel (503) 336-1335 Call, Website

Located next to the excellent Jamison Square, this restaurant is designed to be the perfect place to stop in for a bite after your children have worn themselves out in the wading pool. The adult menu features fresh salads and sandwiches. This is also one of the easiest places for parents to enjoy one of Portland's excellent Kettleman's bagels or Portland-roasted Stumptown coffee.

Kids get a meal tray with apple slices, milk, goldfish, and a choice of entree (choices include PB&J , Mac and Cheese and other kid favorites.)

What really makes this spot work, though, is the separate children's play are, viewable through a huge glass window. Kids can play with toys while parents finish their meal or enjoy some grownup time.

    FYI - they closed the kids playroom and the new owners do NOT like children at all. It used to be very kid-friendly and is no longer - you will get dirty looks if you bring your children there. A pity - because other than being kid-friendly, it doesn't have much to offer. Coffee? There's plenty of that around. Food? Mediocre and limited. Atmosphere? Sterile. I will not be back.

    I have called to confirm that the kids play area is now closed (it is now a dining area). The restaurant does still offer a kids menu.

    I think that the food is excellent there! I don't know what you're talking about. Plus, I just brought my young son (7) and daughter (4) in there last week and they were treated very well. I don't get the impression at all that the cafe doesn't like children. And as Debbie noted, there is still a kids menu. Sounds kid friendly to me!
