Kid friendly restaurants in Vancouver?
 
Will have a few days in Vancouver in Dec with 8 and 10 year olds. Staying at the Four Seasons ( I know...ooooooh...but got an INCREDIBLE rate!!) so looking for restaurants closeby that might be fun for kids?? Like a pub sort of atmosphere, maybe music, but kids welcome??? Was told it's a great area around there, but probably won't be catching most meals at the hotel!!

There are tons of kid-friendly restaurants within a short walking radius of your hotel, it'll be hard to know where to even start. :)

Do your kids like Japanaese food? I immediately thought of Tsunami Sushi, which is on Robson just west of Burrard (a 5 minute walk from your hotel). It's located upstairs from the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Co/El-Kartel clothing boutique, but essentially they have little plates of sushi (among other things) floating around on little boats. That's always fun for kids in the 8-10 range. Even if they don't eat sushi, there's always other things you can order there (teriyaki, tempura, etc).

Well, boring but kid friendly, basic and cheap there's always 'The White Spot' chain restaurant, 580 W Georgia St.

The sushi conveyor belt could certainly be fun.

I can't think of any restaurant that is kid-unfriendly, but I'm not sure if you are likely to get a "fun" restaurant with live music in the heart of the business district.

For example, the Italian restaurant I went to on Saturday night was a pleasant family-friendly place with live music, but it was in east Vancouver.

The website http://www.vancouverrestaurants.com has a bunch of listings of Vancouver Restaurants, I'm sure you could find something on there.

I know it's kinda late for an answer but I'll just say it anyway for anyone who might find it useful still.
Try Vancouver Aquarium. They have a mini restaurant on site and your kids will be thrilled.
Also check www.littletots.ca. They show you a map and you'll most probably be able to find other kids attractions in the area that have restaurants on site.

I think Legendary Noodle is great fun for kids of all ages. You get to watch noodles being hand-pulled! The food is cheap and great.

There is a cupcake place nearby and I think there might even be bubble tea available in walking distance.
