Five Coffee Shops with Kids Areas – Get Your Caffeine Fix and Let the Kids Play at Any of These Five Local Coffee Shops

As a busy mom, caffeine is often a must on many days, and all days for some mothers! Visiting a local coffee shop is a great way to support local businesses and get a great cup of coffee or tea. However, when you have little ones, it’s easy to avoid or dread heading out to a place like a coffee shop. Thankfully, Forsyth County has many kid-friendly coffee shops and bars that have everything from toys and trains for little ones to play with to entire kids’ rooms.

Chad’s Chai

This is a teahouse, not a coffee shop, but it has some delicious, caffeinated beverages all the same. As a bonus, it has a fun kids’ corner that is stocked full of books, toys and games. It’s a great space to keep little ones entertained.

Dog-eared Coffee Company

This coffee shop was just taken over by new owner Alicia Lilly who has put considerable time and effort into revamping this shop and kids’ area. The kids’ room is so cute and actually its own separate little room (with little windows that look into the main shop). There are tons of toys and even a play kitchen.

You can easily grab a coffee or tea at Footnote and take it over to Bookmarks.
