Mercantile Dining and ProvisionsĪ Union Station staple, Mercantile boasts an inspired menu not only for the adult patrons but for the kids” menu, as well, including braised short rib, housemade spaghetti, and grilled chicken tenders with roasted potatoes. With spacious outdoor seating, a fire pit, board games, and several kid-conscious menu items (tater tots, macaroni and cheese, and sliders, ranging from $3.50 to $15), this spot is the ideal place to kick back during the warmer months for a bite, a brew, and a safe, no-judgement afternoon. Kids can enjoy coloring and parents can enjoy a relaxed happy hour space in which their little ones can move around (without the judging stares). From burgers, fries, and shakes to sushi and wood fired pizza, Avanti caters to each family member’s cravings. The two-story, open concept restaurant with several dining options, spacious seating, and two massive bars, leaves little to desire. This almost two-year-old spot is a LoHi favorite and for good reason. Families can brush up on their paddle skills during happy hour for $10 an hour per table. But what really makes this space great are the 12 ping-pong tables, including several on the heated patio.


Each $7 kids meal comes with complimentary shaved ice. Their kids” menu offers kid-friendly versions of Asian cuisine favorites like their bao buns, wok tossed rice noodles, or dim sum. Instead of the standard Chinese take out, Ace Eat Serve offers dishes elevated just enough for even the pickiest eaters.
