The kids love it and I love the coffee. The staff is always working hard and keeping the place clean and safe for the kids. The Manager Gulmira has such I great personality and caring nature for the kids which is so nice to see. She’s great with all the kids and was very nice to my son and nephews. I saw her encouraging a little girl to join the other kids, and did it in the sweetest way. Will definitely go back more often.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for toddlers through primary-school-age children. The toddler zone makes it genuinely accessible for the youngest visitors. Parents get a real café with quality coffee rather than a vending machine. Reserve weekend tickets online to avoid disappointment — walk-in play is available weekdays.

Very good place for children they loved it but the staff were very non communicative with “people of color””. As I purchased my ticket the young girl lied to me asking about veterans discount for my husband, but mind you we called early before arrival and a different lady said yes with certainty. I’ve also noticed the guy on the floor was only speaking and acknowledging himself with only the “”non color”. I wouldn’t have mind knowing who you was but to see you walking past us multiple during my 2 hours, started to make it feel a uncomfortable.
