1 / 3Cafe + Play
π Meridian, CA
Play cafe designed for ages 0-5 with sensory bins, art activities, and diverse play zones. Features a well-equipped lactation room with rocking chairs. Babies under 1 play free. Grip socks required for play areas.
Cafe & Play is our FAVORITE! We go there at least once a week and itβs truly a highlight of our week. The food and drinks are some of the best in all of the coffee shops Iβve been to in Boise. Since my husband and I work remote, we love coming to switch off playing with our baby during breaks. We are so impressed with how clean and sanitized everything is (we even see them clean after a session!). The motherβs lounge is one of my favorites because I can nurse and rock my baby to sleep for a quick nap if needed. Allison and her team and so personable and welcoming everytime we come :)
π Family Action Verdict
Best for parents of babies and toddlers who want a quality coffee fix alongside structured play. The lactation room is genuinely one of the best in any play cafe setting. Remote-working parents use it as a weekday base. Most valuable for the under-3 crowd β kids aged 4-5 may exhaust the play options faster.

βWhat a fun little place! The atmosphere is so aesthetic but not overwhelming. So many little corners with different things for the little ones to play with. My little girl had so much fun! The coffee was really yummy as well. Really looking forward to having a place like this in the valley to go to on colder winter days. There is also WiFi so you can work while your kids play. Plenty of seating room. Theirs also this cute little art room (forgot to take a picture of it).β

βThe cutest cafe! Brought my 9 month old (free to play for under 1), and he loved scooting around all the different areas! Everything was so clean, with so many different options for kids to do! The momβs room is so cozy, perfect place to feed and rock your little one! And for the drinks!! Omg they were amazing! I got the flight and it was ππΌπ€πΌ chefs kiss! Great job Allison for creating a space for people to gather and connect!!β

βMy daughter and I love Cafe + Play! Itβs so welcoming and inviting and has such a great playa area and motherβs room! We love going and if you are in the fence of trying it out, please do! Your littles and yourself will thank you for it! Plus they also have some breakfast food which was absolutely delicious!! π€€β
