Copy link1. Koneko
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
Jojo VoyageOne of the many cat cafes popping up in the city, Koneko offers entertainment that's hard to beat: cuddle time with a furry feline. You can have light nosh in the adjacent cafe, or purchase your snacks and bring them into the multilevel cattery to dine while you play. Reservations for the cattery are required and cost $20/hour. Children ages 12 and younger must be accompanied by an adult. . https://mommypoppins.com/new-york-city-kids/restaurants/nyc-restaurants-with-kids-entertainment-and-activities
More info2. An Choi
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
Tiffany WoodsAt first glance this place looks problematic: There’s no room for strollers and the vibe seems a little too street-eats hipster to be kid-friendly. However, the Vietnamese iced coffee will fix any sleep-deprived parent, and with the right table, kids (who are warmly welcomed by the staff) can nestle in with their own little toys or art projects. The key is to call a little in advance, even just a half-hour, to secure a cozy nook for your crew. Then, parents can luxuriate in the pho bo dac biet of their child-free dreams, and kids can slurp a simple chicken or beef broth for just $2, plus rice. An Choi is also a great place to end the day after a tour of the Tenement Museum, just down the street. Again, best to come sans stroller. (By the way, for Brooklyn families who can’t schlep into Manhattan, Bricolage is an equally scrumptious Vietnamese option in Park Slope — plus, it has a patio.) . https://www.grubstreet.com/bestofnewyork/best-restaurants-for-kids-in-nyc.html
More info3. Ninja New York
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:Jojo VoyageThis dining spot is perhaps best saved for the bravest diners with more adventurous palates. Upon entering, you're whisked away to a feudal ninja village. Be on your guard, because you're never sure when a ninja might appear out of nowhere in an attempt to test your mettle. Tables are situated in private dining rooms and the Japanese-themed menu includes plenty of sushi options, as well as some other crowd-pleasers, like burgers, mac and cheese, and teriyaki chicken. Any item on the menu with a ninja star is accompanied by some sort of show upon delivery to your table. Speaking of shows, a ninja magician will be sure to stop by while your party dines. . https://mommypoppins.com/new-york-city-kids/restaurants/nyc-restaurants-with-kids-entertainment-and-activities
More info4. Kings County Imperial
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
Emy MooreA stone’s throw from the Williamsburg Bridge, this second Kings County outpost is all about the booth. The huge booths line the dark room, and can comfortably tuck away big families who want to delight in the reinvention of one of the greatest snack-tivities of all time: the (off-menu) pu pu platter, served on the ever-entertaining lazy Susan. Or devour an amazing crispy garlic chicken. Kids love the cold sesame noodles (without the chili paste) or just plain noodles with a little sesame oil. And the cocktails are strong, exotic, and often come in groovy glassware. The original Williamsburg location is great for families too, but this one has more booths. (Did we mention kids love booths?) . https://www.grubstreet.com/bestofnewyork/best-restaurants-for-kids-in-nyc.html
