At Hobee's, we've always welcomed kids with open arms. Our homey atmosphere attracts lots of families and we receive many compliments on how well our staff treats the kiddies.
Recently, we received the following letter from a Hobee's Sunnyvale customer who was so kind to write to us about her kid-friendly experience there:

"Dear Mr. Taber,
I only have a few moments to write this as my 9 month old needs my constant attention! I just had my first Hobee's experience yesterday morning. I met a friend for breakfast at your Sunnyvale store. I have actively avoided restaurants since the birth of my son as I have gotten everything from the initial "dirty look" to the worst seat in the restaurant when I come walking in with him by my side. Every restaurant I've been to has been less than accommodating when it come to bringing in baby. However, my situation yesterday was completely different. I was greeted with a big smile and a "hi little baby" for my son as I waited to be seated. I was given a normal table just like everyone else. I was offered a high chair for the little guy and not one that looked like it was older than me and would collapse when he was put in it. Gavin, despite his young age, was given a helium filled balloon which much to my surprise was a total hit! It kept him occupied for a good 15 minutes, which in "baby time", as you may know, is an ETERNITY! I also had an odd request for a pitcher of hot water so I could heat up his breastmilk bottle. I didn't think expect the "sure, no problem" response and it was promptly delivered to our table. The whole staff was friendly, courteous and attentive.
We can't afford to go out very frequently but from now on, when we do, we will make the long drive over the hill to go to a Hobee's restaurant. It is well worth it. You won a family over with your thoughtful kid friendly attitude. I was impressed. Last but not least, the food was absolutely marvelous and I was able to eat the whole meal (warm nonetheless) thanks to a balloon and warm bottle. THANK YOU SO MUCH!"
