With more than a dozen top-notch eateries, Time Out Market Boston is a local foodie's dream. But for the parents among us, it's not always possible to score a sitter and have a night out without kids. Fortunately, Time Out Market is exceptionally child-friendly, with lots of open communal seating; chances are you can set up shop with plenty of room for your crew. If the kids make a bit of a mess (or if you do!), the market's hands-on team of bussers will help take care of it.

Kid-friendly bites at Time Out Market Boston

  • Pizza
  • Fenway/Kenmore

Lala's Neapolitan-ish Pizza gained a cult following for perfectly charred crust and locally sourced ingredients, but kids are usually here for the simple delciousness of these quick-fired pies. The pepperoni cups perfectly, the OG Cheese hits the spot, and adventurous types may want to go for the spicy Buff Chick, which has roasted chicken and swirls of both spicy buffalo sauce and ranch.

For a healthful, colorful and — most importantly — tasty treat, encourage the kids to try a freshly-made smoothie like Green Monsta (strawberry, banana, spinach, flax, oat milk) or Vacation Day (mango, strawberry, blueberry, banana, organe juice). Rare is the child that doesn't enjoy Squeeze's chocolatey Superfood Truffles or the Raw Chocolate Donut made with dates, nuts and cacao powder and topped with coconut.

  • Ice cream parlors
  • Fenway/Kenmore

Far Out blends real fruit into an array of ice cream flavors. Who doesn't love that?! Fan favorites include the Kookaberry (made with strawberries, blueberries and raspberries), vanilla mango and chocolate raspberry. There are also seasonal specials and create your own combinations. (Did somebody say Fruity Pebbles?)

  • Fenway/Kenmore

Hummus might just be the most kid-friendly treat to explode across the Hub this century. Fortunately, anoush’ella (an Armenian expression of love, meaning “may it be sweet”) churns out exceptional hummus, as well as smooth labne, grilled halloumi, baked chickpea fritters and lots of other kid-friendly noshes.
