About Play Cafe
We're a cozy coffee shop with a supervised indoor play zone for kids.
At Play Café, we believe that parenting shouldn’t mean sacrificing comfort, connection, or great coffee. We’re the first supervised indoor playground and café in the Judson Mill District, providing a vibrant, family-friendly space where kids can explore, and parents can unwind.

THE BACKSTORY
Stop us if this sounds familiar...
​
You're at a kiddie party, your butt is smashed on a hard seat, and your stomach is grumbling. Tough luck; the lone pizza pie at the party is for the kids―not you or the other starving parents.
​
Austin and Daniel were in a similar situation, tracking the minutes on the clock until it was time to go home. They knew it wasn't the host's fault they were having a lousy time. It was the venue; it wasn't designed with the parent's comfort in mind. And that's when it hit them—why not? Why not create a space that caters to kids AND parents?
​

Why We’re Different
What sets us apart isn’t just the supervised play or the top-tier coffee (though those are pretty great). It’s the sense of community we create. We’re more than a play zone, we’re a space where families come together, friendships are forged, and memories are made.
