What People Are Saying

from Google

"Great environment for kids ages 6 months to about 6 years of age. It is perfect for toddlers with all of the toys and built in play structure. Concrete floor throughout with some cushioned play pads, so it is required to have socks for everyone (adults included) and kids should have socks with rubber friction grips on the base. No outside food, but you can buy various snacks like lunchables, veggie straws and sweet treats. They sell juice as well as coffee/teas. Admission lasts 2 hours, uncertain if it can be extended without paying full admission price again."

"We had such a fun time hanging out with family here! Just a heads-up—don’t forget to bring socks! 🙂 The play space is large and thoughtfully designed, with themed rooms that are perfect for little ones to explore. Our 11-month-old had a blast crawling around and playing with the small toys in each room. There’s even a dedicated area for non-walkers, which was perfect for our kiddo. The concession stand was a pleasant surprise—lots of snacks, coffee, and other treats. The staff were incredibly patient and helpful as we filled out the waiver and asked questions. We enjoyed a few different coffees while our baby explored the play area. We can definitely see ourselves coming back here for future playdates!"

"The kids had a great time. Plenty of areas to explore and learn about different things. The floor has a couple of padded carpets but is a concrete floor so grippy socks are needed for kids to play. There is an infant area that is completely padded. If your kid doesn't have grippy socks they do have some for purchase. Coffees are similar in price to most coffee shops and tasted pretty good. The snacks are pretty simple snacks you would buy at the store- pre-packaged types. The bathrooms were clean. Facility overall seemed clean. You do have to purchase an adult pass which is half the price of kids, but with a mth pass for a child the adult is free. The music was like R&B on the day we went, not really kids music in my opinion. The gate to the kids area doesnt lock/latch, its just a swinging gate."

"This place is amazing! I can interact and play pretend with my little or just watch from the sideline catching up on things as they run around. Great environment! Awesome coffee!"

"We came here a couple years ago when my oldest was about 2. I remember it being overpriced at the time (and it seems crazy you have to pay for adults as well), but we had a fun time, even with older cousins who came with. The idea of this play cafe is great - nice to have coffee and snacks and places to sit. We went back yesterday with my 4.5 year old and 2 year old (and 9 year old cousin to play with them)...in the words of my 4.5 year old "this place sells ice cream which is cool, but it is NOT fun". There were hardly any toys to play with - things were scattered about and beyond that, it looked like there has been no investment made since the last time we were there years ago. Example: the grocery store has boxes of food which are real food boxes with plastic tape around them...they looked quite rough. My boys did like the little gym area, but it was highly disappointing to me - the play exercise bike was missing a pedal, and the play treadmills were in very rough shape (and honestly pretty dangerous). For three kids and two adults, I paid $71. We did forget grippy socks so we had to pay for those, but still. It was wildly expensive for a run down play area with very minimal toys. We ended up only staying for about 45 minutes and then called it. We won't be returning, especially since there are so many other great indoor options that are tons of fun, and recognize that there should absolutely not be a fee for parents."
