Our family went to Tchoup chop two years ago and saw many families with small children. Actually, it was a BIG deal on how you were to dress when dining here so I went out and spent lots of money on decent outfits for the five of us. I was surprized to see several "walk-ins" that were dressed in flip flops, bathing suits etc. We had a great dining experience and plan on going back again soon. Our kids loved the non-alchoholic drinks on the kid's menu(so did us adults). They were $5 each, small and only took about two gulps from us adults and they were done. No free refills, of course!! Enjoy!
