2015 Best Lunch, Kids

Pastoral

Fort Point Italian restaurant Pastoral gets points for a prime location (blocks from the Boston Children’s Museum) and an excellent parking situation (get a $5 validation for the nearby Farnsworth Garage). There’s ample stroller parking in the takeout area, and tables are widely spaced so antsy children can roam free. The kids’ menu, meanwhile, offers thoughtful touches like gluten-free pizza; paper and crayons arrive while you wait.
