Tot Spot Cafe4517

Tot Spot is CLOSED!!!

Tot Spot will be changing it up this Fall...we will be converting the space to a craft beer tasting room so if you have coupons or passes, use them now!!

My wife loves this place and I do to. The coffee is reason enough to stop in, served in a real mug and the people that work at Tots Spot are great. I particularly like that the owner hired a man to work since it makes me feel more welcome.

I've tried repeatedly to visit this local establishment, because the idea behind it is golden. I really WANT it to work. However, this place is ALWAYS filthy, filthy dirty. We always leave within minutes of arrival, when I see that nothing has changed over the years. Not only does it look like no one cleans this place, but no one even picks up anything, either. Filthy floors, dirty tables, giant messes everywhere. I am no neat freak, but this place is absolutely disgusting.

Tots Spot is a great place to go with your children if you want to relax for a while and know that your children are safe. The toddler area is locked off and there is a slide system for the older ones. My mothers group always gets a discount and they have great employees now.

I disagree with the prior poster and have noticed that other sites took this review down. Too bad you can't report it here!

Disgusting...one word. I was seriously disappointed. I was excited going but showing up there was huge disappointment. The tables were dirty, sticky, and just not clean. I didn't feel welcomed going there. The ladies behind the counter weren't friendly whatsoever. Let's just say...if your not a regular or a minority...I wouldn't go. The stares from the women was horrible. My friend also felt it. Two different races..but we felt the lack of love there.

I didn't like it at all. It was just me and my friend who sat there by force just to be polite and finish our cups of coffee. It was a total mess.

I am a frequent patron of the Tot Spot Cafe, I go like once a week it is a little of a drive for me. I love going and so do my kiddos, I LOVE the coffee, and the food is great too. I also love Kat the owner she really wants to make our(moms) lives easier not only did she come up with this Awesome Cafe all on her own, she has events at the Cafe and great Guest Speakers..Like potty training experts;) This is one of my favorite places to take my kids, I would and do recommend this to friends!!

The Tot Spot Cafe is the answer to my dreams! I love meeting my friends there for an excellent cup of coffee, and letting our kids play with the perfect, age appropriate toys. It's a comfortable, clean, and friendly place to spend a couple of hours. Wonderful!! Highly recommend.

Tot Spot Cafe Rocks! It has fresh, healthy, kid-friendly food that an adult would actually want to eat too (not like the gross fast food at most chains with play areas). There are loads of toys the kids love. AND it has wiifi so you can actually bring your computer and get something done while the kids play. What's not to love? No kid-oriented place is going to be a germ-free bubble. Sure the toys are not always put away, but they aren't in my house either!

Ok - do the previous posters have children? Do your children leave toys exactly where they found them? Likely not. Many kids play at Kats - so toys get strewn around. Its not a museum, so who cares if there's a bit of a toy mess? If you want quiet and toy free...Try a Starbucks.

As for the dancing - god forbid someone should dare dance to a song on the radio. Have you heard of the movie Footloose? I think you may enjoy it.

The Tot Spot is an amazing find for parents in the Eastside area. My kids and I have spent hours there. I get a chance to socialize and enjoy a yummy cup of coffee or lunch, my kids get to play with other kids and toys - all while being supervised by the responsible staff. They also host amazing birthday parties as well - what else could parents ask for? I would give 10 stars if this rating feature let me - 5 for the environment and 5 for the food & coffee!

After visiting the impressive website for this cafe, I was very excited to visit. I could not have been more disappointed in the cafe. The play area does not have separate areas like it claims. It looked like someone had picked up 4-5 kids' bedrooms and tipped them upside down into the play area. With kids toys, sometimes less is more. There was half-eaten food and used wet wipes everywhere. I was appalled by the mess.
The music was blaring loudly, and I watched the 'manager' dance with a young child to Katy Perry's "I kissed a girl." Not the most child-appropriate song around. This place is hazardous to your child's health.

I'm a newly laid of father of 2 and was having a difficult time finding a place to take my girls and then stumbled onto Tot Spot Cafe in downtown Woodinville.

The staff was great with my daughters and gave me a chance to work on my computer and have a good cup of coffee. They even told me about a group of guys that meet there. We will be back for sure.

I totally agree with the previous poster.....this place was such a letdown. The place was totally dirty, toys were scattered all over the floor and couches, and the girls behind the counter were pretty apathetic. Not to mention, my son and I were the ONLY people in the entire place! NO ONE else was there, and after seeing this place I can understand why. It was obvious that cleanliness is not top on this place's priority list. I was particularly bothered by the fact that there were crumbs and half-full cups of milk and juice just sitting on the tables for who knows how long....what if some kid had gotten a hold of them? Totally unsanitary. I was there for 45 minutes and the staff did absolutely nothing to clear them away. Instead they chatted to each other, and after a while one of them even went into the toy room area and sat down, doing nothing! The place was such a mess I wanted to start picking up the toys and wiping down the tables myself. The bathrooms were also not great....I did not even want to use them but my son needed to be changed. I agree with the previous person's suggestions, plus I think it would have helped if they had some soft music or something playing in the background to give the place some ambiance. All in all I really wanted to like this place (the concept is nice) but it just reminded me of someone's dirty, messy living room. I never write reviews but felt strongly enough about this one to do so. Unfortunately I would not recommend this to other moms and I will not be going back.

I learned about this place one morning and I thought: what a nice idea, let's check it out this afternoon. Well well, I was so disappointed. The place is a mess. It is not only a big room with lots of toys. It is a big room where mess plays: toys on the floor, broke, dirty....my 3 years old said: mom, the toys are nice..but it is so messy!! the kitchen was pretty dirty too. The supervisors were somewhat kind, but they did not seem very involved. The idea is still nice. Therefore toys could be better arranged, floor could be cleaned more frequently, toys should be arranged by age range and also cleaned (rests from food, dust all over) and supervisors should wear some shirt or apron identifying themselves and also have a more playful attitude towards the children.

This place is perfect for when you want to let your wee one run around with a whole bunch of toys and tots and not have to clean up the mess :) Its a great place to catch up with a friend over a cup of joe and chit-chat while your wee one plays. Coffee is a bit more expensive then any other coffe joint- but it's good.

Wow. This place is perfect! My son and his friend played while I had lunch and coffee with my friend. There are a ton of toys and different sections for little babies to play, too. We will be back for sure.
