Kids Eat Free at Cinco de Mayo Celebration in Downtown Silver Spring

On Cinco get your drinko.
Get stinko on the Cinco.

There’s something about Cinco de Mayo that makes me want to make corny jokes and seek out free drinks…a complete holdover from college Corona and Cuervo bar promotions.

But even though I’m now a respectable parental unit, I still think that the best way to celebrate Mexico’s defeat of the French in a 19th century battle is with tacos, tequila and mariachi! And I think the rowdy revelry of years past totally translates to good family fun with the kids.

Downtown Silver Spring, Austin Grill and Baja Fresh agree. They’re bringing the kid-friendly, freebie-fabulous, drink-special love!

Today, May 5th at the Cinco de Mayo Celebration along Ellsworth Drive from 4:30-8:30pm there’ll be

  • marvelous Mexican food
  • kids eat free (2 free kids meal for every 1 adult meal purchased)
  • family games and activities
  • live mariachi band and dancing
  • $2 Mexican shooters, margaritas & beer available in the outdoor beer garden
  • $2 slices of Mexican pizza
  • prizes, like a cool new guitar
  • This just in: Kim says there’ll be burro rides!

It’ll be Mexcellent! (See? I can’t stop the dorky jokes!) Hope to see you there.
