A Village for Every Family

The idea for The Play Cafe started long before we ever opened our doors. As educators (and later, as moms), we dreamed of a place where kids could play freely in a safe, creative environment and parents could take a breath, sip some good coffee, and connect.

That place didn’t exist— so we built it.

The Play Cafe is more than just a play space, and more than just a coffee spot. It’s a community space created with care. Where families can gather, share resources, support one another, and feel like they truly belong. We’re here to host the playdates and the conversations. To offer support, share resources, and make sure no one feels like they’re doing this parenting thing alone. Whether you’re coming for the coffee, the company, or a calm place for your little one to play—we’re so glad you’re here!
