What parents say
It's my 1st time being here. It was great! The entire place is very clean, the cafe area & the play area. I didn't go to the bathroom. It's very spacious. There's an area for babies, toddlers & big kids. We ate a chicken salad sandwich with chips, hot dog with chips, Sprite & coke.
This is a great place for little ones. Lots of room to run, clean, fun engaging play things and age appropriate rooms. The cafe is reasonable and a kid friendly menu. We brought my 22 month old grandson there and he had a blast.
If you have kids aged 9 or smaller and live in Elgin/South Elgin/Algonquin/Dundee area - this is the place to bring the littles and have them burn some energy off in a very affordable ($18 total - for unlimited play? Can’t beat that!) and very clean place with multiple activities for the kids.
I love bringing my family here to play at the bumblebee cafe. The staff are so nice, especially Beth. I have a special needs daughter and Beth was very accommodating to her! This place is clean and there's so much to do! I love the little town they have here.
