I loved it, and I recommend it for little kids. Only a few recommendations to be better, add an accessible entrance, I was with a stroller and was a little difficult to go in, the train table was a little disorganized and we couldn't play there because was incomplete, and in fish corners were a loose metal that could be dangerous, but after that my kid loved it. For sure we will visit again.

I recently visited this place with my son on a day when I had to work but his school hadn’t started yet, and he was feeling very bored at home. I was pleasantly surprised by how wonderful this spot is! The space is exceptionally clean, and it allowed me to get my work done while being able to watch my son play. I also enjoyed a delicious coffee while working. The service was excellent, and overall the experience was fantastic. I’m so glad we found this place, it turned what could have been a stressful day into a really enjoyable one!

Amazing Recharge & Work experience! I brought my 2 year old in on her PD DAY. There was an amazing ECE who watched her for 3 hours as I did work in the lobby and enjoyed my coffee. All for only $40. Best deal in town. My daughter loved her time and did not want to leave. This is our second time and we will certainly be returning! Keep up the great work team! Impressive variety of toys for babies and young kids! Comfy for parents too.

I love this place for our littles. There is such a variety of toys and activities to keep them occupied. It’s not too big so they don’t get overwhelmed. I enjoy being able to sit back with a coffee to watch them having fun and they always leave feeling pleasantly tired.

I called in to get info on the place and the girl on the phone was super informative and super friendly. I already felt welcomed before even going there. Once I got there and saw the place it was amazing. Very clean, safe for kids all ages, extremely friendly and kind staff. This place offers hair styling for moms while the staff watch your kids play, there is massage room, this place is not only beneficial for the kids but also the parents. If you haven’t been here you are truly missing out!!!!!
