How it works

We are a family-friendly coffee shop with a membership-based play space available for kids under age six. (Day passes will be available, too!) While we do save a few drop-in slots for each 90-minute session, please note that drop-ins are not always guaranteed. Reservations can be made online and are highly recommended!

We are not a drop-off daycare facility, which means you must stay with your child inside the designated play/seating area at all times.

There is a separate seating area that’s open to everyone in the main cafe section, similar to any other coffee shop, but if you have little ones who want to use the play equipment in the back, you will have to reserve a time to play and check in at the front desk when you arrive.

  • 90 minutes of play. We highly recommend reserving your time slot ahead of time using our online reservation system. Once you create an account, you’re able to easily make reservations for the play space, classes, events, and more!

  • Yes, older siblings are always welcome to play with their younger siblings. Please be mindful of the little ones who might also be playing in the shared space. We will have an activity corner with older kiddos in mind, too. (We want all kids to feel welcome at BPC, even if the play equipment is mostly geared toward kids under six.)

  • Walk-ins are not always guaranteed and may only be available if there’s a last-minute cancellation. Please check online to see if the time slot you’re requesting is available before coming to the play cafe. (This will avoid disappointed kiddos if the play space is full!)

  • We will reserve your spot for up to 15 minutes. After the 15-minute window, we will cancel your reservation, and the spot will become available for someone else. No refunds will be issued if you’re unable to make it on time. Please note that if you arrive up to 15 minutes late, this time still counts toward your 90-minute play window.
