"If you're a parent, you already know how tricky it can be getting kids to eat a well-balanced meal. They can be picky, and eating out with them isn't cheap. That's why the idea of kids eating free always feels like such a win. It saves you money and makes family dinners out a little easier to justify. That's why Chili's has become a go-to spot for families looking to stretch their dollar. It's a little hack only Chili's insiders know."
"kids under 12 eat free when you buy a regular entrée, as long as you're part of the My Chili's Rewards program. Signing up doesn't cost you anything, and not signing up is one of the biggest mistakes you can make if you eat at Chili's. You just enter your contact info, pick your go-to Chili's location, and add your birthday month and day for even more perks."
"The kids' menu covers all the classics, from cheeseburger bites and grilled chicken bites to cheese quesadillas, mac & cheese, cheesy chicken pasta, crispy crispers, and even pizza. Basically, all the kid-friendly favorites that make dinner out a little less stressful. After digging around, it looks like many customers haven't seen that kids' meal coupon in years. Instead, they've reported only getting coupons for chips and salsa or a drink, and for the birthday dessert."
Chili's offers a My Chili's Rewards program that advertises free kids' meals for children under 12 when a regular entrée is purchased. Membership is free and requires contact details, a preferred location, and a birthday to unlock additional perks. The kids' menu includes cheeseburger bites, grilled chicken bites, cheese quesadillas, mac & cheese, cheesy chicken pasta, crispy crispers, and pizza. Many members report not receiving the advertised kids-eat-free coupon, instead getting offers for chips and salsa, drinks, or birthday desserts. Inconsistent coupon distribution and unclear eligibility rules have frustrated parents and reduced the program's perceived value.
