Restaurants with a kids' menu in Petaluma (6)

Petaluma's family coffee shop with an indoor play space: espresso and real food for adults, a dedicated kid play zone steps from the tables - designed for exactly this.

Downtown Petaluma's giant open-air garden: 350 outdoor seats, BBQ and smash burgers, live music, and room for kids to move - it bills itself as family friendly and means it.

A French bistro that made Sonoma Magazine's best-kids-menus list: petite versions of bistro classics and a 'childhood vanilla flan' - the nicer-dinner-out that still takes toddlers seriously.

Petaluma's creekside comfort spot: burgers, big breakfasts, and a relaxed family room on the boulevard - the low-key local standby.

East Petaluma's neighborhood gastropub: a genuine kids menu alongside craft beer and elevated pub food - the eastside family dinner default near Shollenberger walks.

Petaluma's punk-rock diner: pancakes the size of pizzas, chicken 'n' waffles, and fried-bologna sandwiches - Sonoma Magazine kids-menu listee with portions that defeat teenagers.
