The Play Cafe

We visit often and recently had a birthday party there. The prices are great. The party room was perfectly sized for what we needed and any questions were quickly answered. Will definitely be back and will recommend to friends and family.

We looooove the play cafe. It's our modern day Central Perk (complete with the yellow couch) where toddlers are celebrated. Great place to meet new mom friends, hang out and have coffee and snacks, while letting my toddler mess up this space instead of my home. The staff and owner are great! We love the different types of play including the story times, music class, paint and sip events, bounce house week each month, I could go on and on! Our group consists of kids 6 months old up to 15 years old and they all love it.

My little one loves visiting the play cafe and would go every day if I let her lol. My only thing is I wish someone would come out and clean up every once and a while so that way things are available to play with in the right areas. This is also on parents to help their kids pick up. We love the extra activities like the foam party on Sundays!

Enjoyed meeting a friend here with my toddler and 6 week old. Though it is centered around play (don't forget grippy socks... You can purchase if you do forget) It feels very clean and well kept. It almost feels like a mini children's museum. My toddler loved the slides and climbing equipment. She also just was content playing with all the different centers that they have set up. There is coffee and food for purchasing, but you can also bring your own snacks. We had a great time chatting, as much as we can chat with my toddler and her other three children :-) would definitely come back and plan to! They also do parties and gatherings there, which I will look into for my 2-year-old's birthday party coming up.

Play cafe is such a great idea! Excellent addition to the community. They sell snacks and drinks inside obviously. The punch cards are a nice idea to save a couple bucks. 10/10

We <3 The Play Cafe! It's a fantastic option for a place to take our kids when we are feeling tapped out. The play is all there- diner, grocery, post office, vet- no brain power from us necessary and completely kid proof. The new space is awesome! There's so much more room for play with the tables for food and drink separated. We are fortunate to have them here in Marion/CR.

We love The Play Cafe!! My kids ask to go there all the time! The events they offer are affordable and family friendly. Birthday party packages are the best prices in town too. This is a must visit place!!

Such a fun place to let the kiddos play! Free hot/iced coffee for the adults 🤩 and a cute little gift shop. Snacks are available for purchase as well. Very clean and loved that there is a changing table in the bathroom. The owner Jen is super sweet and very accommodating. This is near the Marion McDonalds and there was plenty of parking when we went.

Love taking the kids (ages 11 months-5 yrs) to play in an environment that is clean, safe, and fun for all ages! My middle and youngest also love attending music class and mom loves socializing and some iced coffee.

We love this place. Perfect space for indoor open-ended play, socialization with other kids and families, and for moms to hang out. They’re always doing fun things like music classes, story times, crafting events… We even had our kids’ bday parties here, too!

The Play Cafe is a fun, safe place for kids of all ages. We just had our 10 year old grand daughters birthday there! We did dancing with disco lights, nail painting, hair braiding, arts and crafts, bracelet making and pizza and cake! Not to mention all the fun areas to play!! So much to do!! We had babies, younger kids, her age kids, high school kids and lots of adults. Not one person was bored for 3 straight hours!! The owner Jen was very attentive and and made sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend .

I took my 4 and 2 year old children to The Play Cafe and had a wonderful time. The play area is large and well-equipped, with something for kids of all ages to enjoy. My kids loved the climbing-jumping structure.

I was able to relax with a friend at the tables while my kids played. We could still see our kids while we chatted and enjoyed our coffee. The staff at The Play Cafe were friendly and attentive. They made sure that our kids were safe and had everything they needed.

My shy 2 year old felt confident enough to play because he could still see me and check in with me when he needed to. My 4 year old ran around and had fun with her friends without a concern in the world.

We were able to bring our own snacks for our picky kids, but they also had a variety of snack foods for purchase. Overall, we had a great experience at The Play Cafe. It is a clean, safe, and fun place for families with young children. I highly recommend it!

Our kiddos love the play cafe with its convenient location and things for all ages! We have 5 between the ages of 10 months and 10 and they all can find so much to do on their own or with each other. They love the events that you do as well like the Halloween trunk or treat or karaoke night and we would definitely recommend to anyone that lives here or is visiting as an Awesome spot to go with their family!

Just had my daughter's 4th birthday party here and it was a great experience! The space is fabulous for keeping kids entertained and while there are different play areas, it's open enough that you can keep an eye on your kid no matter where they are in the space. I think all the kids would have stayed and played for another 2 hours! Everything was clean, as always, and the owner was accommodating of our party needs.

My daughter loves it here. There are tons of toys to play with and a small playground and a small stage. It’s absolutely an adorable little place for my daughter to play while I read or do some work on my laptop. The free coffee for members is a big plus

A wonderful space, full of opportunities for children of all ages to play and learn and interact. All the while having convenient places for adults to relax nearby but well within sight of their children at all times.

There's a wonderful array of food and dri k options, and everything is very nicely priced. My two year old and I have visited places with less to do, less food and drink options, at a less impressive space, all at almost double the price.

Truly, this place is a steal and I can't recommend it enough.

My sons, daughter-in-law and two grandsons met me at The Play Cafe last Sunday. We hadn't gotten together in way too long and The Play Cafe was the perfect place for two busy two-year-olds to play while while we took pictures, played and sat and chatted about our lives. Our host, Jenn, was outstanding in letting us know what to do and how to best enjoy our time together for our first visit to The Play Cafe. We will certainly be back!

First time visiting! It is pretty much the perfect size for littles - because you can sit on the nice comfy couch and they can still see you while having that independence to go play. Very laid back and friendly environment. Nice selection of snacks so you can treat the kids without breaking the bank. A very affordable option to get out of the house and chat with other adults! I wish this had been around when I had babies and needed adult interaction.

My grandsons are 3 and 4. I love this fun, safe, and clean environment where they can play off some energy. Super great indoor activity for winter or any season. The boys get soooo excited when I treat them to Play Cafe!

We had my son’s third birthday here. It was perfect. We wanted both family and friends from daycare. The kids were able to play and adults can interact with the kids. We chose the play cafe for that reason. It is only your party so it is a little more intimate than bigger places- but it is big we had about 30 people total. We were also able to put the basketball game on for adults. Also the kids played the whole time because there is such a variety of things to do.
