Good Day Play Cafe — Restaurant in New York

I've taken my nephew here several times now and it's always a great experience. Friendly staff, clean facilities, decent food/drink. Good toys, play areas, etc. Rules are all sensible.

A hinoki cube pit to mimic sandbox time without mess and the big ball pit/climbing area/slide are the two main fixtures. A padded floor area to the side has good toys for babies and younger toddlers. Several other toy stations like train sets and toy kitchen for building or pretending round out the big stuff. I do think they could add a few more toys for those on their way to 'big kid' status, but overall pleased with the options.

There's a juice bar perfect for attending adults and a decent selection of prepared and packaged snacks. Prices are reasonable for the area, the juice/smoothy selection is good. There could be some better food options for adults, but that's not really the focus so no points lost.

Decor is clean and minimal, maybe to a fault. Cleanliness is always appreciated, but I find the minimal decoration a bit overly sparse. I think there could be a bit more color, maybe some more interesting murals, etc, but maybe just a matter of opinion.

I'd you're looking for a place to relax a bit and let your little ones burn off some energy without making a mess at home, it's definitely worth a visit.

Love this place SO much! We've been bringing our oldest here since he was a toddler. It was a great place to go when it was cold or rainy and he always pulled me in to play with him but it was so open that it would have been easy to keep an eye on him wherever he was. When the pandemic hit, they created fun activity kits that kept our guy busy while we were all stuck inside. When we had our 2nd baby, they really went above and beyond to keep everything clean and as safe as can be (seriously, check out their website for everything they do!) and I could play with our baby on the big cushy mat while my older one ran around and had a blast. We knew GDPC would be perfect for our older one's 5th birthday party and loved that they enforce masks, temp checks, and vaccine proof. The kids' eyes all lit up when they saw the place and we had two blissful hours of joyful kids, actually getting to talk with other adults without interruption, and an amazing, super kind staff that jumped right in to take care of everything. I'm so thankful for this place and can't wait to visit...

Terrible custom service . Our family called from September to book a date for January, they constantly told us that registration was not open yet, and the registration opening date was postponed all the time, and they talked from the end of October, then from the end of November, then from the beginning of December. We called 10 times, we wanted to pay for my daughter's birthday, we called at the end of October, they said that the date would be ours, we just need to leave our contacts and send everything to them by email. As a result, on November 7, we are calling because we saw on the website that everything is busy. The most terrible service, they did not say the exact date of the registration opening, they do not work on Sundays. I don't recommend...
