What to Know Before You Go
The family-friendly hotels scene in Atlantic City varies by season. During peak summer months (June through August), wait times at popular spots can exceed an hour, especially on weekend evenings. We recommend making reservations at least a week in advance for weekend dining. Off-season visitors (September through May) will find it much easier to secure tables, and many establishments offer seasonal specials and promotions.
Price-wise, expect to spend between $15-30 per person at $ spots, $30-50 at $$ establishments, $50-80 at $$$ venues, and $80+ at $$$$ fine dining locations. Most Atlantic City family-friendly hotels are BYOB-friendly, which can significantly reduce your total bill if you bring your own wine or beer.
