I took my four year-old and my 11 month old here yesterday, and I was so amazed by what I saw! This place is absolutely adorable, the cutest set up I’ve ever seen for kids. It’s like a little town! It had a grocery store, a vet, a fire station, a home, a car mechanic, and more! I also knew that my kids were safe in there, as the whole area is gated. The entire place is super clean too- and i so appreciated that. My kids had so much fun, when it was time for us to go, my son didn’t want to leave! The owner was so kind and carried a conversation with me for some time. They also offer snacks & drinks too! We will absolutely be back. Five stars!!!!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children ages 0–5 seeking a safe, fully enclosed play environment with a genuine cafe for parents. The town theme sustains imaginative play for toddlers across multiple visits. The weekday-only open play schedule means this works well for caregivers with flexible weekday availability. Weekend parties are separately bookable.

We went to Play Haven Cafe for the first time today!! It was so cute and great for my toddler and had a cute play area for my infant, too! What made Play Haven stand out to me today was their ability to think of “everything” a play space bathroom for this age would need. Equipped with a toddler potty seat for the toilet, a stool, a standing changing table rather than the awful wall ones you see in most bathrooms, they were also sweet enough to have extra wipes and diapers just in case. You can tell this bathroom was built by moms with littles. Truly an exceptional play space with such a CUTE and cozy atmosphere! Thank you! 🤍

My 2-year-old spent two hours here without even noticing the time, and I honestly didn’t feel it either. The place is beautiful & new, with unique décor and a really nice café. There’s even a special area for little kids, which makes it perfect for families. I was also impressed with the quality of the toys — they’re strong, safe, and really nice. On top of that, the bathrooms are well-equipped, and they even provide diapers in case you forget yours. The staff is super friendly and welcoming — it truly feels like home. Highly recommend for new moms and dads!

I love play haven I only wish they were open on weekends, but I understand their business model – weekends are for parties! This is my favorite play cafe because you can see the whole space from the sitting area I don’t have to get up to talk to my kid playing, maybe this makes me sound lazy but we all need a break, it’s a parents dream! My son is 4 and at first I thought he might be bored here without big slides or climbing structures, but he is always entertained.
