Start them out with an old favorite.
We have a great menu just for kids here at the Boot. They even get their very own special kid's cup along with their meal. Make sure you take it home with you and let them use it often, reminding them of what a great time they had while they were here. We offer some kid-friendly favorites:
- Kids Burger with fries
- Grilled Cheese with fries
- Mini Corn Dogs with fries
- Mac & Cheese Boat
Once you lure them in with one of those, maybe next time they will be brave enough to try our not-so-common kid's choices:
- Pork Sliders with fries
- Boneless Wings with fries
Give them a taste of your favorites.
The next step really depends on your child's personal style. If they are competitive, challenge them to taste one thing off of your plate each time you visit. You can even entice them to dip their own food in a bit of our house-recipe BBQ sauce. (Kids LOVE dipping!) If they are easily distracted, sneak a bite or two onto their plate while they aren't looking. They will be happily surprised with the new, delicious flavor before they know it. Pretty soon, you'll have to convince them to order off of the regular menu so they stop eating off of your plate!
Let them get messy.
This is the best way to get a kid to eat BBQ - give them free range to get as messy as they like. (Although, we do prefer you keep it contained to your own table.) The taste of incredible BBQ is just part of the joy. The experience of getting a little on you adds to the fun. Where do you think the phrase "finger-licking good" came from? If they aren't constantly having to stop between bites to clean up, they can really dig in. Don't worry, we've got wet wipes here for everyone. Just make sure nobody wears their favorite white shirt to dinner.
Once a week we'll even give you a hand in turning those children into BBQ lovers. Every Tuesday night from 5 pm - 8 pm, KIDS EAT FREE! We'll let you order 1 free kid's meal with the purchase of an adult meal when you dine in the restaurant. You can put your plan into action and not even have to pay for their meal!
The key is to bring the kiddos in with something familiar, then introduce something new a little bit at a time. Before you know it, they will think of us as the best BBQ restaurant near Des Moines just like you do. When you say, "Where should we go for dinner tonight?" everyone in the family can agree on Wobbly Boots Roadhouse. One big happy family with very full, happy tummies after.
Don't forget you can take home 16 oz. bottles of
Second Location - Same Incredible BBQ!
