First time visiting this play cafΓ© and oh wow β€” what an amazing place! It is so modern, incredibly clean, and smells lovely the moment you walk in. My grandson has a milk allergy, and everywhere we go we’re always anxious about food. But this cafΓ© was such a relief. They cater for allergies so well, with alternative milks like oat milk available. As a grandparent of a little boy with allergies, it honestly felt like a weight lifted off my shoulders. There is so much for the children to do, and I love that the larger play area is downstairs and split over two levels , it’s beautiful and really well thought out. The staff are absolutely fantastic, so friendly, welcoming, and genuinely couldn’t do enough for us. I would highly recommend bringing your child here. It’s a truly lovely space and we will definitely be back!

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children from newborn to around age 5, particularly those managing food allergies or children with additional needs. The venue's intentional booking cap delivers a calm atmosphere that stands out from typical soft play centres.

β€œFound our new favourite spot! β˜•πŸ° It’s super clean, calm, and has great coffee and cakes. There is a dedicated, safe under-2s area where they can explore at their own pace, and the role-play zones are so well thought throughβ€”the tool station was a massive hit with my 4-year-old grandson! What really sets this place apart, though, is the staff. They are absolutely brilliant and nothing is too much trouble. It is also a fantastic, inclusive environment for children with SEN; the sensory room is a great addition. They limit bookings to ensure it never feels overcrowded, which made the whole experience so much more relaxed. Support this local gemβ€”use it or lose it! πŸ™Œβ€

β€œLauren has done an absolutely amazing job with her Baby Bears Cafe. She has put love and thought into every detail with a lovely atmosphere and safe space to take little ones. The play town is so much fun for the kiddies to learn and explore and after two visits here my little one is still finding new things to look and play with. I recommend baby bears to all my mamma friends for a variety of different age groups as there is something for all to do. Lauren should be very proud of what she has nurtured, it is a gorgeous space we will definitely be making lots of memories in. Thank you for having us again x”
