The Treehouse Play Cafe
Lake Zurich, IL
Are you looking for a place to meet adult friends and kids for a playdate? The Treehouse Play Cafe is a great place for meet-ups for many reasons. Not only do they have a fun play area for the kids, but they have a wonderful area for adults to sit and have conversations (including the most comfortable leather couches).
One of the best things about their indoor playground structures is children can’t “fall out”. Everything is protected with cushions and netting.
If you are a parent who wants to enjoy playtime with your children that is an option too. The play equipment is open to adult access.
The slide trio is one of my kid’s favorites! There are three slides and no one has to fight over a spot when it is time to race down.
The older two boys enjoy the obstacle course section for a little competiton. My three-year-old needs assistance reaching the bars in this area.
Have younger kids who are crawling or just starting to walk? The toddler area at The Treehouse Play Cafe is ideal for this. The area is open to the rest of the play center so it’s easy to still keep an eye on the older kids in the main area. This area is restricted to children three and younger so your little kids won’t be run over by the older kids. In addition, there is a latched gate so the toddlers can’t escape the play area without an adult assisting.
Want to grab lunch or a snack without having to go somewhere else? The Cafe has great offerings and amazing beverage options. I recommend the spinach and artichoke dip which is served with pita bread and pretzel chips. The lattes are lovely for that afternoon pickup!
Our family is happy The Treehouse Play Cafe reopened this past Fall. We were sad when it closed due to the pandemic but under the new ownership, it seems to be cleaner and cuter. They did some wonderful upgrades to the place! Our family has been scoping out fun play places to take the kids that are geared to a variety of ages. Treehouse is another great option for a few hours of family fun!
