A kid-friendly D.C. area chain that is equally pleasing to adult companions

Matchbox is a trendy, thin-crust pizza restaurant and has grown to be a well known local chain over the years. The flavors are delicious and they have a nice variety of options outside of pizza. They also classic and healthy options, so there is something for everyone. 

The service is friendly, and our experience across the numerous locations in the area has been very positive. They are consistently very kid and family-friendly. 

Looking for something to do nearby? The Nook is just down the street. It's a great play place for babies to create, socialize, and play. The Dunn-Loring Merrifield metro stop is few minutes walk away. The orange line stops there.
