Hometown Bar-B-Que

The Best Kid-Friendly Restaurants In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"You require good barbecue on a Saturday. Your child loathes sitting quietly in a chair for more than three minutes. Nobody needs to settle. Go to Hometown Bar-B-Que. The Red Hook spot has picnic tables inside and out, where your kid can eat two bites of mac and cheese and then play hide-and-seek with a four-year-old at the table next door. And then something beautiful will happen: you’ll have a few uninterrupted moments with your giant beef rib. Afterwards, head down to Louis Valentino Jr. Pier, and attempt to explain to your child that yes, there is a sandy beach, but no, you cannot swim." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah
