Claim Jumper
The only chain on the ten-best list to have separate menu options for younger and older kids, Claim Jumper's choices are extensive -- 15 entrees and 10 sides. While you'll find some typical fare, the build-your-own pizza, frozen grapes, bean-and-cheese burrito, and barbecued chicken breast are more fun options. And there's even a healthy dessert for kids: frozen chocolate-banana bites. Children 2 and under get a free plate with turkey, cheese, applesauce, and mandarin orange slices since the chain thinks that even the smaller kids' meal is too big for toddlers. Other thoughtful features: changing tables in the women's and men's restrooms and a chainwide no-smoking policy. 45 restaurants in eight states. Call-ahead seating and reservations accepted at all locations.
