Plan to wait out the traffic and grab a bite after the concert
We are not saying you should put your little ones in a sugar coma before bedtime, but we might be suggesting that a relaxing popsicle on the patio from Pop Factory might be more fun than sitting in traffic waiting on everyone to head home.
If the excitement of the concert interrupts your usual meal time both Yard House and Bar Louie have full menus with something for everyone. Maybe even a beer for mom, dad, or the grandparents who suggested this family-fun outing.
