It’s a hearty meal, but the friendly staff, including the order-taker and food preparer, will never hurry you, and the leftovers taste almost as good reheated the next day.
Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers

Maybe you don’t think of fast food when you think of family-friendly dining, but you should. Raising Cane’s has a connection to the Dallas Cowboys, a fantastic chicken tender menu along with juicy burgers and crispy fries, and a spacious dining area with plenty of room for wheelchairs begging for you to sit down.
The popular fast food spot is always busy with local cheerleaders celebrating fundraisers and Cowboys fans grabbing late-night cravings with addictive cane sauce and delicious chicken strips.

The Wings Stadium (Edinburg)

In the mood for wings? What about buffalo chicken fries? Are you a sports fan searching for a spot that isn’t too loud or packed with distractions? If you said yes to any of the above, Edinburg’s The Wings Stadium is the spot for you.

Peter Piper Pizza
$$ | (956) 380-6666 | WEBSITE
If you want to watch your kids have a blast with arcade games or enjoy some family bonding time, head straight for the game area at Peter Piper Pizza.

The nostalgic family spot takes consistent quality seriously, and will let you linger over your all-you-can-eat lunch buffet and soda refills for as long as you like.
