I agree with Traders Jack.

For whatever reason, my wife loves that place...

Almost any restaurant, but your Child must be well behaved enough so that while you are enjoying your dinner, they don't cause a problem to other diners.

Why must the child remain at home? There are many restaurants that cater for families dining out nowadays like Krave, Tamnak,Rizoni's. So what if the child can't remember? Isn't he/she eating? Can't a picture or two be taken so that he can see later that his parents actually did not consider him an inconvenience at a restaurant, but took the time to spend quality time with him?

Trader Jacks real shitty
Never going back there
Staff slow. Food doesn't taste good anymore as well as they cut serving sizes in half from a year ago

never going back there not even for a bottle water


The fish pond and turtles could be a nice distraction for the kid though. My kid loved Texas De Brazil as he got to really get messy with some fine meat for the first time. That BBQ sauce mouth and messy hands was priceless.


This can't wait for my little girl to eat like a man lol

this.
if possible get a babysitter a competent relative perhaps, in this scenario bringing the toddler would just be more hassle and an inconvenience

We ended up going to Crews Inn. It was an underwhelming experience. There were toddler chairs, but they weren't cushioned, so after a few minutes junior became uncomfortable. The toddler chairs were one-size-fits-all, but junior is almost three so it was a little too small.

He ended up sitting on our laps most of the evening.

There wasn't a child menu, so we had to scour the options to find something suitable for him. We tried cheese sticks but he ended up having the little pre-meal dinner rolls that they provide, and butter.

He really enjoyed the location though; he was excited about the boats and the water, so at least I can say that he enjoyed the outing.

Crew's Inn's food is probably the worst we've had at a restaurant. My wife's food came at room temperature, not even slightly warm. She had the surf and turf - lobster and steak, both were bland and unseasoned, and don't forget, cold. I had pork ribs. They tasted like they were just boiled and doused in bbq sauce. Even the coleslaw was tasteless.

We ended up boxing my wife's food for her to take home too add flavor and seasoning herself.

The wait staff was competent, a barman was a little too brusque for my liking though, but it’s not anything we wouldn't expect from locals in the service industry.

A very disappointing outing for the adults, I would 100% not recommend the food. The prices were in line with similar places.

4/10

Is there parking? what kind of menu?

I does go there regularly almost on a weekly basis, these waitresses go the extra length once you inform them that your child will be coming along.

First time i ever saw a waitress sit on the ground and play with a toddler when he was getting cranky.

Second time the waiter gave the kid plastic cups and taught him how to mix *drinks* (ice and fruit punch) while the parents looked on.

Well done to them. Highly recommended

haven't eaten at Crews Inn in over a decade

but good steak is supposed to be seasoned with only salt and blackpepper.
And lobster tail is usually just boiled or grilled and then the garlic butter or dip added after.

yeah, that's a given, but this had no salt, black pepper or butter. I don't know if we were supposed to add our own at the table, but at least present something tasty to begin with?

We have 3 kids, a 7yr old and 2yr old twins
