The Ruby Play Cafe

"Ruby's cafe has a charming vibe where parents and kids have a very accessible movement between the cafe area and the play area. It's different from soft play or trampoline and allows children to explore a lot of activities that they usually see in the real world. There is a separate baby section too. My daughter had a blast with her besties. The cafe seemed quite good as well with good food options, although I didn't try anything. I would certainly go again."

"Lovely little cafe for kids with pre-schoolers with lots do facilities - its not too expensive to come in as you get one free adult for every "walker" and babies are cheap. It's a nice place to go for a coffee with a friend - though food selection is limited. The baby area is sweet and the little play areas around the place are within sight of all the tables, meaning you can actually sit down and have a coffee if your child is old enough to play independently. The only downside is that it's not clearly signed how to get in, or the fact there's a car park. You have to go behind the building, through the car park and then up the stairs. So no prams! For obvious reasons this is a no shoe zone, which can get cold in the winter, so bring thick socks."

"We visited on a Friday afternoon for the first time. I’m sad to say we probably won’t be back, whilst my daughter had fun I found the facilities to be quite unclean. The chairs and tables were really unclean, so much so I wiped them myself. The toys themselves looked rather grubby too and made me feel a bit uneasy given the amount of germs going round at the moment. Great concept but lots of parents just sitting and having coffee and totally ignoring their children who were misbehaving/pushing/being unkind. I’m sure you guys will continue being really busy and I wish you the best of luck but we most likely will not be returning."

"Lovely cafe, friendly staff and great food & coffee. They have the proper coffee machine and various types of milk etc. Prices comparable to Starbucks (in fact the cappuccino is exactly the same price which is fair enough). Sandwiches with traditional fillings, made freshly with tasty bread. Park in the back of the building (it says private parking but it is for Ruby's customers). I'll be back :)"

"Always love taking my little one to your play cafe. She enjoys playing with all the toys, whilst we can sit and have a lovely cake and coffee.. win win!! Cafe is always clean, Staff are always so friendly, would recommend to anyone who hasn’t yet been :)"
