It certainly helps if we bring him places that he finds interesting. That's why I knew lunch out at Hangar 5 (here in Columbus, IN) would be a hit. The name "hangar" comes from the fact that its located right at the small terminal of our tiny airport. So you can literally watch planes land and take off while you eat, just outside the window of your comfy booth. Does anyone know a little boy who isn't interested in planes? Neither do I.
Waving bye bye to a departing plane. |
The food is pretty good, too. Hangar 5 is known around town for its breakfast, which you can order anytime of day (and if you order a pancake for your kiddo, it comes in the shape of Mickey Mouse). We've been to Hangar 5 many times and the food has always been delicious. Besides their great breakfast, I love their BLTA sandwich. And my father swears their meatloaf is the best he's had.
The decor inside the restaurant is all about aviation. Model planes hang from the ceiling, and the wait staff is dressed as flight attendants and pilots. There are usually a few small private planes parked just outside the restaurant, and a fighter jet is always on display out front. Pretty cool, even if you're not an 18 month old little boy.
Getting him to hold still and look at the camera? Pretty impossible these days. |

Sounds like a great place to go with kids. Love the idea of the Mickey pancakes, is it wrong that I want one for myself? ;)
ReplyDeleteI think that a nice restaurant to go to. I think if your kid enjoyed their food there and the place with all the aviation stuff, I guess a lot of parents should consider going out with their kids in that place. Thanks for sharing this very nice blog.
