DETROIT — Children are adorable. Children are the future. But is there a place for them in every restaurant?
No. And some places are happy to spell this out.
While I can't say I've ever had a restaurant experience ruined by a kid merely being in the restaurant, it has made for some memorable moments, like the time a grade-schooler marched laps around the dining room of a popular chain restaurant I was dining in, with no one making an effort to stop her. Distracting, yes — hilarious, yes — but was it worth getting upset about? Not in that particular family restaurant, no.
