The Burrow Cafe and Play

Such a great place to go to get work done and enjoy a delicious coffee and snack!

Great new place where I can go to grab some coffee, get some work done and have a place for the kids to play. Love that it is so close to Hillcrest Elementary where I can easily walk to pick up my child after school and let them explore the play area while I finish up my tasks for the day. Staff has been friendly and attentive.

if i could give this place 10 stars, i would.. i have never been to a place that has been so thoughtful to both parent and child. Aesthetically, its gorgeous— "kid" places are usually filled with plastic toys where we leave totally overwhelmed and over stimulated— here, the play space is decorated in a calm way where form and function meet. Our first time, my son used "the burrow" for almost his entire hour of play, climbing up and sliding down.. he made friends with other kids there, and he didn't look twice at me he had so much fun. He begged to go back the next day, so I brought my computer hoping to get some work in. I worked in the party room, where my son (and other kids!) created a play with script, parts, and even costumes. It was the sweetest thing i've ever seen. The play attendant (Kat) was bopping in and out of the play area to check on the bigs, while still monitoring the littles. Everyone was so attentive and kind, especially the owners, it was nice to see them meeting people (especially the kids). I havent seen anyone take the time like they did, especially in the hustle and bustle of a packed house— i don't know how they did it. Opening day was *busy* and lots of people were complaining about not having reservations— we didn't have that issue, because they've been very transparent on their social media channels about booking a reservation. Parking was tricky at the opening, but i assume it's because they had outside vendors for their grand opening that took up some spots, but we found street parking with no issues, and i was able to grab a sweet little bouquet from one of the vendors! The second day we went, we had no trouble finding parking in the lot.

The coffee is amazing, I am not a sugary-sweet coffee drinker, so i took a chance on the honey badger— it was so good, I had it hot the first day, and iced the second day, both were delish— not syrupy sweet, but just enough to feel like a little treat. I also had an iced americano, (my standard drink) which was 5 stars. My son was obsessed with the kid's food options— which are all healthy, so i didn't have to monitor what he chose. I had an onion and cheese pastry while he played. I work from home, so having an option where i can go and get some work done, while my kid gets to have fun is such a needed relief. I can't wait for the monthly memberships to come out—we'll be first on the list.
