50+ Child Friendly Restaurants in Johannesburg & Surrounds 2020

Our Bean is now 3 and Baby K is 1 and although we love to meet friends and family for a lively meal, going to just any restaurant has become difficult, to say the least. Between the kids' loud babble and active little legs, we spend more time chasing after them, keeping him away from other diners, than eating. Not wanting to be stuck at home all the time, I have taken the time to put together an extensive list of child-friendly restaurants and kid-friendly coffee shops and tea gardens in Johannesburg and surrounding areas, which we can enjoy as a family unit.

If you live in Pretoria, be sure to read our post on Child-Friendly Restaurants in Pretoria.
