Little Pickles
Soft Play Café in Bournemouth
The Soft Play Café Your Little One Will Love
Where little ones play and families make memories, over great coffee, good food, and two levels of soft play adventure.
Bournemouth's favourite soft play café for babies and toddlers under 5. Two levels of adventure, proper coffee, and a place you'll actually look forward to coming back to.
Why Parents Love Us
The soft play that gets it right
We're parents too. We built Little Pickles the way we'd want it — safe, clean, and actually fun for everyone.
You can always see them
Our open-plan two-level play area means you never lose sight of your little one, so you can genuinely sit back, sip your coffee, and breathe.
Obsessively clean
We take cleanliness seriously. Every session, every surface, every time. Our customers notice, just read the reviews.
Proper coffee & food
Bean-to-cup coffees, luxury hot chocolates, tasty food for grown-ups and yummy snacks for little ones.
Under 5s only
No big kids barrelling through. Even in the school holidays, it's under-5s only. Peace of mind for everyone.
