No. There are public water fountains and restrooms but nothing is allowed in to eat. There are no vending inside the building too. As another person wrote you are only there about 30 minutes. Not long enough for food and YES, you and your contents are searched and x-rayed.
How is this museum for children? Are there any hands on exhibits or anything to engage kids?

Yes, its free and have hands on exhibits and give all a bag of shredded money! Can see right into floor of mine thru clear plexiglass. Interesting and informative.
Best for school age kids that have some idea what money is or kids who collect. There are some (a few) hands on things...but it won’t keep young kids attention for long.
