IKEA

Punk-rock diner where the decor alone entertains kids - colorful everything, breakfast all day, and a patio with occasional live music. Back from a 2022 closure and still a Pixar-adjacent favorite.

Big-portion comfort food with a bear mascot, a Cubs kids menu, and Teddy Bear Tuesdays where a kid with a stuffed bear eats free. Portions sized for sharing with small humans.

A West Oakland play space with a multi-level playground, climbing walls, a ninja ropes course, an arcade, and a small toddler area.

A food hall with kid tables and a giant ball pit, plus lots of food stall options.

Suite-style rooms with kitchens in Emeryville's shopping corridor: heated outdoor pool, hot tub, free breakfast, and Bay Street's restaurants and movie theater a short walk away for rainy-day plans.

A food hall with many counter-service vendors, so each family member can pick a different cuisine.
