The places that don't make you apologize for the kids. Restaurants with crayons that aren't an afterthought, parks with shade and bathrooms, the ice-cream stop with the line on a hot Tuesday.
A diner-style grill on the Strip serving burgers, hot dogs, and root beer since 1950 — a regional institution and one of the Strip's original restaurants. Closed Tuesdays.
A breakfast-and-lunch diner on New Street running since 1946, open daily — hotcakes, homemade soups, and fried pork chops in a genuine old-Strip setting.
The Strip's go-kart, mini-golf, and arcade anchor — double-seater karts for young kids, an 18-hole mini-golf course, bumper boats, a zipline, climbing wall, and batting cages.
A 600-foot sand beach on Lake Erie with a designated swimming area — pets aren't allowed on the main beach, but a separate dog swim area sits at the west end. The east breakwall's sidewalk adds a scenic walk along the shoreline.
