    Barnaby's Cafe in Midtown... One of Our Very Favorite Kid Friendly Houston Restaurants

    Modified: Dec 6, 2020 by Jill Jarvis · This post may contain affiliate links · This blog generates income via ads · #sponsoredpost · 1 Comment

    Barnabys Egg Salad Sandwich
    Address: 414 W Gray Street, Houston, TX 77019

    I really really like Barnaby's Cafe. It's easy, casual and has something for everyone. In fact, it's on my Favorite Houston Restaurants list!

    We're reviewed the Museum District location and the River Oaks location... but now it's time for the Midtown location!

    All the Barnaby's are fun, funky and named for the owner’s childhood pal, the sheepdog named Barnaby, and is full of sheepdog art.

    Barnabys Kid Menu
    As you might guess, a restaurant decorated with dogs is pretty kid friendly. There are coloring sheets and a kids menu.

    But what I like about it are all the options. There are several veggie burger options (and no boring soy paste burgers), lots of salads, sandwiches and more.

    Barnabys Chicken Tenders
    On our latest visit to this location, we had the kids meal with chicken strips, the falafel burger (my favorite!), the egg salad sandwich (which is GIGANTIC) and Lebanese Salad.

    The waiter was very nice, good with the kids and filled up the tea as fast as I could drink it (which is fast).

    Barnabys Midtown Hempseed Burger
    The kids colored while the food was prepared... and soon we were eating one of our favorite lunches. The kids ate all their food... except for my oldest son and the egg salad. That sandwich could seriously feed two adults. So he had it for dinner too.

      I dined at Barnabys on West Gray today and had a horrble incident there, I was trying to get teh ketchup out of th ebottle an the waiter was glaring at me, I couldnt find my knife so I stuck a frie into and he grabbed the bottle out of my hand and yelled "NOW I have to toss this!" he went to the trash can and threw it in the can. I was ao humiliated..I said..why didnt you let me finish my meal with it before tossing it to which he replied...I was afraid I would forget! Very unprofessional of him and very disrepectful to do this to a woman.
