eating out with a 6m old, on vacation, how is this done

Where do you do lunch/dinner?
Do you drag stroller everywhere?

The last time we took DS to a resturant one of us was holding him at all times

We are going to mystic, ct for a mini fam vacay, and I'm so nervous.

Any recs for places to eat, with a 6m old in mystic? Ds can sit in resturant high chair but do we drag the stroller anyway?

Since DS is still in his infant carrier, we usually leave him in his seat and take that into the restaurant, put it on a high chair. One restaurant we go to, they let us bring the stroller in and accommodate us, so we bring it and leave him in it. If he really fusses, I take him out and hold him during dinner.

When he gets big enough that I can't bring him in the carrier, I will just bring a travel booster or use a restaurant high chair with him. I know your DS is out of his infant carrier, so I would try that

We just went to Mystic and most places were stroller friendly, except for the fancier restaurants. We just pulled the stroller right up to the table. Otherwise, DD was in her carseat and DS was in the highchair.

shana, i got married in mystic, and i am from that area. its a family town so don't worry about the stroller. you can go to the aquarium, the seaport, all with the stroller. olde mystic village is beautiful and he can feed the ducks in the pond, but you might not be able to manuever the stroller through many of the stores (they are mom & pop type stores).

you will find TONS of restaurants, all of which are great to eat it!

have a blast! when are you leaving??
