Four West Palm Beach spots that work with children in tow, from a 24-hour Cuban kitchen with its own kids menu to a South Dixie diner serving breakfast all day.

Feeding kids in West Palm Beach tends to come down to two corridors: South Dixie Highway, where the long-running diners and Cuban kitchens sit, and Clematis Street downtown, which works well before the evening crowd arrives. The places below all have something concrete going for them with children in tow, whether that is a printed kids menu, a children's brunch price or a counter of cupcakes. Timing matters more than anything else, so each entry notes when to go.
1. Havana Restaurant
Havana is on the list because it prints an actual kids menu, which the restaurant lists alongside its appetizers, sandwiches and desserts, and because it is open 24 hours every day of the week. That combination handles the two hardest cases with children: a 5pm dinner and a meal at an hour nobody planned for. The 4.3 rating across 5,745 reviews is about as settled as a rating gets in this city, so the score reflects years of ordinary service rather than a good month. There is also a 24-hour walk-up window at the South Dixie location if sitting down is not going to happen. Desserts and cafecito close things out.
2. Howley's Restaurant
Howley's carries the highest rating of any large-volume restaurant here: 4.5 from more than 4,400 reviews, which is proven rather than promising. The draw for families is all-day breakfast, so a child who only wants a Belgian waffle or a three-egg omelette can have one at 7pm. Both are listed at $8.95. Doors open at 7am daily, closing at 10pm Sunday through Thursday and midnight on Friday and Saturday, which means early dinners are easy and late ones are somebody else's problem. Burgers and a chop steak platter cover the adults. The South Dixie counter seating suits kids who like watching the cooks.
3. E.R. Bradley's Saloon
Bradley's earns its spot for one specific meal: the Sunday brunch, served 8am to 1pm, priced at $21 for adults and $11 for children under 10. That is a rare posted child's price downtown. The rest of the week is a different building. Lunch and dinner run until 10pm, a late-night menu takes over from 10pm to 2am, and live bands are scheduled into the evening, so this is a daytime visit with kids and not an evening one. The 4.2 rating across 5,354 reviews is a large, honest sample for a Clematis Street saloon. Monday through Wednesday it opens at 11am.
4. Ganache Bakery
Ganache is the dessert stop rather than the meal, and the one place here where children can point at a case and be done in two minutes. Grab-and-go cupcakes, mini bundt cakes, rum cakes and small bites are made fresh daily, and the key lime tartlet gets singled out by reviewers. The bakery also runs baking classes, which is worth knowing if you have a kid who wants to make the thing rather than eat it. The 4.8 rating is the highest on this list, though it rests on 252 reviews, so treat it as strong but less tested than the diners above. Hours are short: 10am to 4pm on Monday and Tuesday.
