TravelCenters Brings Back ‘Kids Eat Free’ Summer Deal

WESTLAKE, Ohio — TravelCenters of America LLC, operator of TA and Petro Stopping Centers locations, invites parents to take a break from cooking all summer long.

From May 15 through Sept. 7, TA Country Pride restaurants and Petro Iron Skillet restaurants are giving children aged 10 and under a free meal from the kid’s menu with the purchase of an adult entrée.

The free meals can be enjoyed as breakfast, lunch or dinner, and include a small beverage. The kids-eat-free discount is available on dine-in purchases only. One free kid's meal per adult entrée will be given. 

This year, TA is also celebrating the 40th anniversary of Petro Iron Skillet restaurants. The travel center chain is commemorating this milestone with a 40-day celebration that kicked off April 22 and will run through May 31 at all Petro locations, as CSNews Online previously reported. 

Petro was founded April 22, 1975 in El Paso, Texas, as a full-service truck stop before it expanded nationwide and was acquired by TravelCenters in May 2007.

During the 40-day celebration, all Petro Iron Skillet restaurants — known for their buffets, breakfasts and wide assortment of comfort food — are celebrating by offering diners complimentary birthday cake and commemorative pins, while supplies last.

Westlake-based TravelCenters of America operates 251 full-service locations in 43 states and Canada.
