FAQ
Throughout the day, we hold 2 hour minutes sessions called a “playdate” - during this session, you and your child have access to our state-of-the-art indoor playground, our imaginative tiny town play area, all activities, and our curated children’s library. Your kids can play freely throughout the cafe, while you relax and enjoy your time in our clean, comfortable environment.
We do require kids to wear Backyard Play Cafe play socks. Our socks are specifically designed for indoor playground use, with a unique grip pad on the bottom to help children play safely. New pairs are $5 per pair, and you can bring them back again and again for future playdates!
There is no age limit for the playground. It is rated for kids as young as 6 months, and kids as old as 12-14 have had fun while playing with younger siblings/cousins/etc. There is a section designed for babies and toddlers, and all kids have fun crawling and sliding around the rest of the playground.
Yes! Adults are more than welcome to accompany their child in the gym. All we ask is that the adult is wearing socks - they do not have to be our Backyard Play Cafe play socks, but we do have large sizes available for purchase. There is a weight limit of 300lbs.
During a regular playdate or special event, adult supervision is required. We do have drop-off events from time to time (check out our Parent’s Night Out event!), where the adults are not required to stay and our staff will supervise the children! Please check in with our staff if you plan to leave your children with a teenager for supervision. Thanks for helping keep all the kiddos safe!
You are welcome to bring in any food or beverage for your infant (under 1). All other outside food and drink is not allowed. We will happily fill your child’s water bottle and we have a delicious variety of allergen-friendly snacks and treats available for purchase in the cafe, as well as seasonal items. Try our gourmet bakery items or enjoy a fun snack while you’re here!
Every playdate session is followed by a 60 minute cleaning session. Our staff goes through the playground, tiny town, and cafe to thoroughly clean all surfaces before finishing up with a sanitizing spray. We require all our guests to wash their hands before playing and wear socks to help keep our space as clean as possible.
Yes we do! Frequent visitors love our money-saving membership options. Being a member has more perks than just saving money on playdates - like a free drink every month, special members only events, and saving 10% on all cafe purchases!
Yes we do. It’s easy to enjoy Backyard Play Cafe beverages without stepping foot in the cafe. Check out our cafe page here to connect directly to our DoorDash, or to request a Large Order Delivery or Corporate Catering.
Not at all! Babysitters, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and friends are all welcome to bring kids in to play.
