Our Story

Nestled in the heart of Vancouver, Circus Play Cafe is more than just a play space—it's a beloved community haven founded by local families for local families. The vision behind Circus Play Cafe was sparked by a simple yet profound desire: to create a nurturing environment where children and parents could connect, learn, and grow through the power of play.

 
 
 

The beginning…

Our story begins with passionate parents who recognized a need for a safe, imaginative, and enriching play area in Vancouver.

Opened in 2015, Circus Play Cafe was designed to bridge the gap between a traditional cafe and a dynamic play space. We are parents of young children, understood the challenges and joys of parenthood. We envisioned a place where adults could relax and enjoy a cup of coffee while their little ones explored a world of fun and learning.

A Place to

Connect

and Grow…

Circus Play Cafe is purposefully designed for children aged 0-5 years. Our space is filled with high-quality play equipment, beautiful yet simple decor, and a variety of structured classes and workshops. These elements come together to inspire creativity, encourage free expression, and facilitate meaningful interactions between families.

We believe in the power of play as a fundamental aspect of child development, fostering cognitive, social, and emotional growth.

Our Philosophy

We believe that play is essential for children’s development and that parents deserve a welcoming space where they can unwind and connect with others. Our cafe offers a sanctuary where both kids and adults can feel at home, making it a unique blend of relaxation and playful adventure.
