What parents say

I am a young mom and my children do not always allow me to get work done. This is a great place to be able to let my 3yo play, hook up to wifi to get a few things done before letting him go outside to play. He never wants to leave! Staff is always friendly, coffee bar has lots of options. We even did our tax prep here.

Valley Community Center is a great place to bring the whole family. Thursdays are Tot Town where you can bring your small kiddos for an indoor play date arena. There's always something going on at the community center. The Cafe serves up delicious coffee, advertising their $3 Latte flavor of the week.

I take my young kids here weekly, we love it! There is so much going on! There is a nice inside and outside play area and we like to come Thursday mornings. On Thursday mornings they have inflatable bouncy houses that my 4 year old loves to jump in! Coffee is excellent and you can’t beat the price!
