Elmo’s Kid Friendly
Lots of places claim to be kid-friendly, because getting those family dollars is good business. But Elmo’s Diner (no, not that Elmo, silly-billy) in Durham really is kid-friendly, from the kid menu down to the brand-new crayons, from the school donations every Tuesday to the waiters and hosts who don’t snarl at kids like at many restaurants. Comfy booths with clean boosters, clean bathrooms. And coffee while you wait–bonus for mom.

What a bargain!
My son and I have been going there for several years every Wednesday evening while my wife rehearses with the Duke Chapel Choir. We’ve gotten to know a few of the managers there and it is by far my son’s favorite restaurant. He loves the kids blueberry pancakes (for supper even!) and loves coloring an Elmo to put up on the wall in the waiting area.
