Westport healthy fast food eatery Freshii is launching a Kids Eat Free program during the month of January, aimed at increasing the number of kids who eat healthy meals as part of their regular diet. During this time, Freshii is offering kids under the age of 10 a free entree from the kids menu on Saturdays and Sundays when their meal is accompanied by an adult entrée (one free kids meal per adult entrée).

“We want kids to understand that healthy eating doesn’t mean giving up delicious food,” said Jonathan Blob, owner of Freshii Westport. “We are introducing our Kids Eat Free program because we love seeing kids from Westport and surrounding towns come in and enjoy our fresh, healthy options—and we want to see even more of  them!”

Founded by CEO and entrepreneur Matthew Corrin, the health-oriented restaurant chain is currently in nearly 50 American cities and eight countries. The goal is to serve “high-quality, healthy food in a casual and convenient way to help people live their best life,” owner Blob explains. He opened the Westport location as his flagship in 2013 and hopes to open five to 10 more locations over the next several years in Fairfield and Westchester Counties. 

Freshii in Westport is open Monday-Friday 8am-8pm, Saturday 9am to 8pm and Sunday 10am to 7pm. Free parking is available in Parker Harding Plaza.
