What is included in an outback kids meal?
The outback kids meal is thoughtfully designed to provide a "No Worries" dining experience for the youngest members of the family. Known as the "Joey Menu," these meals are perfectly portioned for children ages 12 and under and offer a variety of kid-friendly classics with an Australian twist. Options typically include the Joey Sirloin, Mac ‘A’ Roo ‘N’ Cheese, and Grilled Chicken on the Barbie. Each meal is served with a choice of a side, such as fresh seasonal fruit or Aussie Fries, and a beverage, making it a complete and balanced option for a family night out.
Parents appreciate the outback kids meal because it prioritizes quality ingredients that kids actually enjoy eating. For example, the chicken fingers are made with white meat, and the sirloin is the same high-quality beef used in the adult entrées, just in a smaller cut. To keep the little ones entertained, the menu often doubles as an activity sheet with puzzles and coloring sections. This focus on family hospitality ensures that children feel like VIPs, with their food often arriving quickly to accommodate shorter attention spans and hungry appetites.
In addition to the main course and side, every outback kids meal can be topped off with a fun dessert like the Spotted Dog Sundae—a delicious treat featuring vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, and a cherry. The pricing is kept affordable, often making it one of the best values on the entire menu. Whether you are looking for a healthy grilled option or a classic comfort food like the Boomerang Cheeseburger, the Joey Menu ensures that your children have a delicious and memorable experience while dining at Outback Steakhouse.
