Super clean, the staff is super friendly and the drinks are amazing! Great space to get out with my kids and they get to go wild and I can enjoy the chaos!

We love the little village play cafe! We first went to an event and loved it! Always love going! It’s so welcoming and you feel you belong there. It’s not just a place to get coffee or kids to play but a community that genuinely cares about you. I will always recommend it!! Once you go there you will never want to leave. Everyone is always so nice!

Fantastic space for kids to play and interact with others. Couches and chairs for parents to sit and watch the kids play while enjoying a coffee, beer or wine. We love this place! Play time price is very reasonable as well!

This is a very cute place for kids to play and parents to drink coffee. The little learner program is a favorite of ours.

First time at this play cafe today and was a bit disappointed. Maybe I came on a bad day, but the entire play area was a disaster. Seemed like every toy was on the floor and nothing was organized. I get that there are kids playing all day long but I never saw staff come through to check on things. Hard to teach my 1 1/2 year old how to clean up after himself with everything all over. There were also empty coffee drinks in multiple spots that needed to be thrown out. I also didn’t like that there was no enforcement of the socks required/no shoes policy. I spent over $3 for a pair of adult socks only for half of the parents to have their shoes on or walking around barefoot. The coffee I had was great so that’s a plus and my toddler had lots of fun. Will give this place a try on another day and hoping my next experience lives up to all of the great reviews.

I have a summer membership which is a great option for our family. My 18 month old loves the play structures and toys. The staff are always sweet and patient. I’ve only gotten lattes so far, but they’re always fantastic! I love that they have lavender!

Play area seemed very dirty! No staff walking around cleaning was seen. Just overall very dirty from toys to furniture.

LV is the kid friendly third space we all need! We started going here for the Free Baby and Me group and now have a membership and are here multiple times a week. This space is so welcoming and supportive. Every part of the space is so thoughtfully arranged and laid out. The owner really put her heart and soul into the space and it is a testimony to why women should always be in charge of designing spaces. Even something like a bathroom can be so stressful when dealing with your little but here they think of literally everything to make things as stress free as possible.

My little loves playing and having free range in the space and I love the comfy furniture and the ability to take a step back.

The food menu is smaller but I prefer quality over quantity and the food is very good! I am also a huge fan of the coffee drinks and they have a nice bar menu.

We also love taking advantage of the Little Learners Classes and letting my little learn through songs, dance and sensory play. And I love the adult only events that they put on.

Finally, I love the collaborations they do with other woman owned local businesses such as Joy Ice Cream and Little Geese. It’s giving girls girl, business edition.

I know this is a long post but I wanted to share how much I truly love this space. My little has hit milestones here, gained so much confidence and has so much fun. And I have made wonderful friendships and feel so much more connected to community. It really is a village.

It’s a fun place to play, it has toys for younger kids to maybe age 5. They have a nice cafe area where you can order nice food and drinks. I would go again and they have classes for little ones too.

Truly a life-saving gem to this mama! I feel so supported in this space as a new mom with two under two. It’s one of the few places I feel confident taking my newborn & toddler on my own since every inch of The Little Village has been built with families & young ones in mind. The bathrooms are stocked with diapering supplies & spare clothes for kiddos, there’s a quiet room available for nursing/changing, play materials that are engaging & age-appropriate. Every detail has been thought through with intention & love. The staff are incredible—so understanding & supportive. My toddler chants with excitement when I tell him we’re going to play here. And the food & drinks are delicious! Can’t recommend The Little Village enough 🤍

My daughter and I love going to Little Village Play Cafe! She has so much fun every time and it’s a great option when it’s too cold or rainy to play outside.

All around exceptional place for parents and children. They have VERY nice play equipment/toys with attentive staff to clean and reorganize when needed. The play area is sectioned off from the cafe and laid out as a flow of stations generally following age/ability with intermittent seating for the caregivers.

Besides all of that, there's a full cafe with a food menu, wine, and beer. We tried the food recently and it has no business being as good as it is. They also have a storefront area with quality products offered by local makers. I would love this place without the extra amenities but you can tell that they've thought of everything that could enhance your time there.

Just great vibes overall- of course the main goal is for your kid to be happy but why not the parents too? Fantastic concept and execution, 10/10.
