When you’ve children in tow, the very first thing that involves thoughts when heading out to eat is: “is it child pleasant?” Let me inform you, if it isn’t, then I’m in all probability going to skirt round going there. I’ve just lately fell in love with consuming exterior, regardless of the climate and would like to share with you a number of the prime child pleasant patios in and round San Antonio to seize a chunk, a drink, and let the children run wild.
1. Large’z Burger Joint
Large’z is that it boasts an enormous, open play space the place children can run (i.e. no gear). Large’z is understood for his or her burgers (clearly) but additionally has nice salads and a beer and wine choice. Three handy areas:

10106 TX-151 San Antonio, TX 78251
2303 Loop 1604 San Antonio, TX 78258
2. Willie’s Ice Home
Whereas Willie’s is understood for his or her sandboxes (which had been truthfully a germ scorching home even in pre-COVID days), they nonetheless have an enormous patio with loads of room for youths to rise up and transfer round. Their meals is scrumptious too — I’m a giant fan of their crawfish. Seven areas within the San Antonio space.
3. La Gloria
The most effective issues about La Gloria is that their margaritas are so good that nobody will care about your children working round. There are two La Gloria areas which are each scrumptious — one on the Pearl and one close to Brooks Metropolis Base.
4. Longhorn Cafe
Longhorn Cafe has a number of areas all through San Antonio. They’ve ample patio area and family-friendly menus. Every location I’ve been to has recreation machines, and there’s additionally a slide on the Blanco location.
5. The Level Park and Eats
The Level solely has outside seating however has loads of shade, making it good seating for households. It is usually a meals truck park, so there are many choices for choosy children, and normally a snow cone truck too!
6. The Pleasant Spot
Situated in Southtown, The Pleasant Spot has a yard with loads of open area for youths, in addition to a terrific children’ menu and chilly desserts. They’re additionally recognized for his or her nice bar menu and occasional sports activities and flicks on inflatable screens.
7. Boiler Home
The entire eating places on the Pearl are nice, and most have nice patios. I picked Boiler Home due to its location — throughout from Larder in Resort Emma, and it’s a terrific individuals (and canine) watching spot for youths. The Mission Attain part of the Riverwalk extends to simply exterior Boiler Home, which is all the time a terrific spot to flee to with squirrely toddlers.
8. Screaming Goat Yard and Faucet
The title says all of it, there’s a gaggle of goats and the adults can seize some libations, play some yard video games, and order one among their delicious pretzels. I used to be fortunate sufficient to be there on bingo day and received a prize pack too!
9. La Vernia’s The Den
Only a quick drive out of city to get pleasure from stay music (on the weekends), a big working subject with obstacles and toys for the children(loads of indoor and outside seating), and a strong meals and bar menu.
10. The Good Sort
That is one among my faves as a result of the menu is completely different that almost all with allergy pleasant, vegetarian pleasant, and gluten free choices. I’ve by no means had one thing there that I didn’t like. Their outside area hosts a wide range of open occasions ( yoga, dance, stay music) and yard video games, too.
I hope this provides you some nice concepts for outside eating! Let me know if I missed any of your favorites.
