Where to eat with the children in the SH
The Chinese are relaxed and open with the children and that makes it almost a pleasure to bring with you to restaurants. While the friendly Chinese attitude do not, your child behave better, at least you do not have to be ugly mockery and the evil eye shoulder. But sometimes it's nice to go where children are not only tolerated, it is taken into account.
Here are a few Western and Chinese restaurants in Shanghai that you and your children keep warm welcome and a plate full and filled your glass. Have fun!
1. OMalleysDescription: Irish pub/sports bar/playground Cuisine: Pub food Address: 42 Tao Jiang Road, near Wulumuqi Road. Map & Directions. Opening hours: daily 11am-2am Features: Standard kids’ menu, high chairs, Kids Corner, onsite child “entertainer”, toys and extensive play area. Comments: How many restaurants or pubs have their own child entertainer? OMalleys is a super spot to come with your toddlers for a break during your visit to Shanghai. With a big open lawn, sandbox, air-castle and playhouse, you can relax and enjoy lunch, dinner or an afternoon drink. 2. MesaDescription: Weekend brunch for the yummy mummy Cuisine: Continental Address: 748 Julu Road between Fumin and Shanxi Roads Reservations: 021-6289-9108 (recommended, especially for terrace dining) Opening hours: Sat/Sun 9:30am-5pm (brunch menu) Features: Delicious kid’s menu, high chairs, inside play area stocked with toys, nanny to watch kids. Comments: The concept of enjoying a meal in an elegant restaurant as your toddler choo-choos his train at your feet is unimaginable in most places, but at Mesa, this is an acceptable way to have a lovely brunch. Note: Mesas nannies are on hand only during weekend brunches.3. Blue Frog – Jin Qiao (Pudong)Description: Hectic eaterie Cuisine: American Address: Green Sports & Leisure Center, 633 Biyun Road, Pudong Opening hours: daily early-late Features: Classic American eats such as breakfast burritos and burgers. High chairs, crayons, lengthy kids’ menu & outdoor play area. Comments: This Blue Frog outlet is located within the Green Sports “mall” that locals just call Jin Qiao (gin chow). The food is mediocre and expensive, but your kids will have fun running around snatching balloons from the pot-plants and scampering around the outdoor play area. You can guzzle a latte or a bloody mary whatever suits.4. Din Tai FungDescription: Clean bright spot for the best dumplings in Shanghai Cuisine: Taiwanese / Shanghai Address: Xin Tian Di South Block, 2F, 123 Xinye Road Reservations: 021-6385-8378 (a must – or you will wait in line) Opening hours: daily lunch 11am-3pm, dinner 5pm-10pm Features: Super friendly staff, high chairs, plastic dinner ware and a big plate glass window where the kids can watch the magic of dumplings unfold before their very eyes.

GrapeDescription: Known from guidebooks and locals as the “safe” Chinese restaurant to take visitors, e.g. those who like to eat Chinese food like it is back home. Cuisine: Western-style Chinese Address: 55A Xinle Road, corner of Xiangyang Road Opening hours: daily lunch 11am-3pm, dinner 5pm-10pm Features: Familiar Chinese “classics” and kid-friendly staff. Comments: Not the most inspired food, but if you’re filling the void, and getting the kids to eat, then why not. Amusing window shopping along Xinle Road and if the baby’s asleep, stop by the lovely wine bar at Epicvre at 98 Xinle Road for a glass. 7.
