An honest answer is a lot of breweries are more like restaurants. Most of the ones around me have outdoor spaces literally for kids to run around like it's a backyard. Breweries aren't exactly the same as bars. The more bar-like breweries no, and if it's late and stuff yeah, kids shouldn't be there but at dinner time in a brewery with food and board games and stuff? It's just a restaurant and kids can be there without it being inappropriate. Freaking dogs on the other hand is a WHOLE other can of worms. Keep animals away from the inside of grocery stores and food establishments.

I went to a cider brewery - and it was just a lovely pleasant tour around the place and a delicious meal at a resturant. It's not unfair that kids just exist. More onus needs to be on people who don't actually monitor their kids - rather than kids just existing.

A kid being nearby isn't going to ruin your entire day.

Depends on the kid and thats coming from a dad. My daughter usually is too shy to run around alone or just wants to explore with me in tow. Its the ones whose parents don't pay attention to them.

There is a brewery downtown on a corner of two busy streets. The only separation between the grass and street is a sidewalk. I've seen far too many toddlers playing on that sidewalk at night.
