As a parent, the first things I look for are cleanliness and safety, and this place excels at both. It is incredibly well-maintained, spotless, and designed in a way that lets the boys have a blast while I actually feel relaxed. The onsite cafe is also such a convenient touch--we always grab the boys smoothies for the ride home! What really sets this business apart, though, are the owners. Michael and his wife are some of the kindest, most welcoming people you'll ever meet. They truly care about the families coming through their doors and make you feel right at home every time. Wonderful people running a wonderful business--we can't recommend this place enough!"

I was really happy they open at 9am! So many places don't open until 10 and my kid is up early. Also lots of play options. Huge "sand" and ball area, trampoline, screen game, giant slide, scooter coaster, little grocery and play food area, small train table and a peg board. I will probably be back again this winter when we need something different.

It's in an historic building and also offers free ukulele workshops by one of the co-founders of the café (which I didn't get to see, lol). His handcrafted banjolike instruments - made out of tin boxes, wood, and bent quarters - are also offered for fun and for sale. I think I saw an Altoids guitar for $50. The soup of the day (tomato basil) was really good, but the fresh-baked BREAD is what really got me! And I'm not usually a bread person. Keep in mind they close at 3. Very glad to have stopped by to support this unique local place.

Its very cute inside, has inside dining which you will probably want to utilize because these croissants make a mess! Lol Definitely worth a look while in federal hill for a sweet early treat!

Even if you're not planning to buy anything, the store itself feels like an attraction and is worth exploring for Harry Potter fans. There are themed rooms, collectible wands, house merchandise, apparel, sweets, and plenty of photo opportunities. You can also enjoy experiences such as personalized wands and interactive features available throughout the shop. One useful tip is to visit earlier in the day or on weekdays if possible, as the store can become very busy with tourists and fans.
