Let your little ones burn off some energy or spend some time playing grown ups at some of Hampshire’s top play cafes.
Dotted around the county, we’ve put together some of our favourite play café pit stops in Hampshire. A great activity for pre-schoolers and ideal for something to do on those rainy days.
Tot City, Andover
Set in Andover’s Chantry Centre, Tot City offers two floors of role-play fun and toys for pre-schoolers. Children can try their hand at ‘driving’ cars around the mini race circuit, being a hairdresser or at the supermarket.
Snack stations are found on both levels (check opening times first) for light bites as well as teas and coffees for the grown ups.
Arthur’s Play Café, North Baddesley
With both indoor and outdoor space for playing, Arthur’s Play Café is ideal for children aged 0-6.
Test out the various activities including sensory stations and a car washing station on those sunnier days.
For the big kids, coffees, teas and hot and cold food are served.
Wonder World of Imagination, Havant
Explore a world of imagination at Wonder. There are ten different areas to explore including a castle, beach and space station. Look out for special events such as themed play slots and SEN sessions.
Little Big Village, Fareham
Work in the village or pretend to be a customer; some of the things that children can do at Little Big Village. Whether it’s popping to the hairdresser or vets, there’s plenty of fun to be had for little ones exploring this play café.
Meeple Village, Hythe
This colourful café combines a role play area for children aged 6 months – 6 years, a café and a board game bar.
Added to this, there are fresh crafts every week included in each 90-minute roleplay session.
