10 kid-friendly places to eat in Parramatta
Eating out with kids can be a bit tricky and not always the positive night off cooking you were hoping for. Luckily Parramatta has a wide range of great kid-friendly restaurants and cafes.
Club Parramatta
Club Parramatta’s new children’s play area keeps little ones occupied for hours with an intricate climbing playground of tunnels, nets, and platforms. With 100% visibility from the outdoor deck for parents enjoying a social occasion with family or friends, Club Parramatta has really got this set up right.
Club Parramatta also has a range of dining options that are sure to keep even the fussiest little eaters happy while you can order a more sophisticated meal and still enjoy your meal together – a win-win for everyone.

NBC (Northmead Bowling Club)
NBC (formerly known as Northmead Bowling Club) is not only kid-friendly, it's kid-centric to its very core. The Club inside is a modern design with big screens often playing the game, but it's really outside where you see how much NBC has embraced the very fabric of family-friendly.
Giving over a bowling green for the enjoyment of families, the Backyard features an undercover play area, a giant jumping pillow, a jumping castle and over 20 tables with permanent shade cover all ideal for families and friends to relax while the kids are more than busy in the multiple play areas.
