I think the term "appropriate attire" is too vague. The Lakes Region is very casual.

I have never been aware of a restaurant in the area (or in the greater Boston area, for that matter) setting a time limit on when people can bring children or not. Having such a policy seems extremely stuffy.

Rather than having rules and regulations (with the exception of the no-smoking rule), I would think a better strategy would be to advertise/promote a certain type of restaurant, such as fine dining, with carefully chosen adjectives, such as "elegant" or "formal". That way people get the idea in a more positive way.
