Kids eat free at Crabby Joe's in Waterloo’s Northdale Sunday.

Name: Crabby Joe's
Address: 19-65 University Ave E, Waterloo, ON, N2J 2V9, CA
Telephone: (519) 725-9041
Price range: $$

Crabby Joe's opened in Ingersoll, Ontario in 1996, fronted by a perpetually scowling crab with crossed arms. The joke is the contrast: surly branding, genuinely welcoming hospitality. The Northdale location has free parking in the lot, and buses on routes 8 and 29 stop right outside. Inside it's a proper sports bar with TVs for the game and a full bar. Maybe more for students and grown-ups, but the Sunday kids deal makes it an easy family stop. There's a patio, it takes reservations, and the washroom is wheelchair accessible. On Sunday, kids twelve and under eat free with an adult entrée. The menu runs on nachos, plus wings, ribs, tenders, and fries. Service is quick and friendly. It's a wings-and-beer room at heart, so go in expecting a sports bar, not a quiet dinner. It handles groups well. 👍Well liked, moderately priced CUISINE Wings, burgers, ribs, fajitas, sports-bar plates.
