Where imagination wakes up first.
Come play, sip something magical, and stay awhile.
Rise & Play Cafe is an indoor play cafe built for the magic of childhood and the connection that happens when families and community have a place to gather.
A place for tiny toes… and big kids too
At its heart, Rise & Play Cafe is designed for kids ages 1–10 to imagine, explore, and play in a space made just for them. It is safe, clean, and full of fun.
But we didn’t stop there.
Because families aren’t “one age group.” Neither is our community.
That’s why Rise & Play Cafe is also made for:
Safe, Welcoming, and Designed with Families in Mind
We believe play should feel good for kids and their grown-ups.
Our space is thoughtfully designed to be:
-
Family-friendly and welcoming
-
Safe and clean
-
A place where kids can be kids
-
A space where teens can hang out without feeling out of place
All parents need to sign a waiver before kids can play—sign here!
