Glow Worm Play Cafe

My son and I met up with friends for playtime and had a fantastic time! The grownups were able to enjoy a delicious caramel latte and tasty tea at a comfy booth while our two 6-year-olds played happily on the indoor climbing equipment and in the imagination play area. We all loved the cookies, which a lovely staff member warmed up for us. So glad to have a place where kiddos can play safely while their grownups relax and connect— what a huge gift for our community. We can’t wait to return!

This place is adorable and a really great idea. My husband and I got to catch up on work while drinking good coffee and our toddler got some much needed socialization in a clean, safe environment; can't ask for much more. Really loved the masks and no shoes rules, as well. I'm guessing dad's don't make it inside very often as one lady took it upon herself to sit across from us and mean mug my husband until it was time to leave but we don't let Karen's ruin our fun, we had a good time reading new books and playing and we'll definitely be back. (The staff and other families were VERY nice) Thank you bringing this type of business to the community

Absolutely love this place. Excellent coffee and snacks for adults and kiddos. Tons of activities for all kinds of littles—do they like to climb? They can do that. Read? Tons of books. Play pretend? There is a literal tiny baby cafe/restaurant akin to Luke’s from Gilmore girls. I also LOVE that masks are required. Glow worm caters to kiddos under 6 so the vast majority of this age group aren’t eligible for a vaccine yet. It’s one of the few places I feel comfortable taking my toddler until she’s able to get vaxxed. She gets lots of exercise and social play with other kiddos. We go once or twice a week!

We visited Glow Worm this morning to let our toddler get out some energy while visiting family and friends. We loved the safe and inviting environment that was there. Having a coffee while my little one explored new toys and played with other children was a relief to watch and experience. Everytime we are back in Louisville, we will visit here! 😊

This is the best thing to happen to parents in this area! They truly created a safe wonderful space for parents and children to relax and spend quality time with both each other and friends. The staff was so accommodating and made it feel ok to relax while my kid was a kid. They value gentle parenting and imagination here. Highly recommend and looking forward to having them in our community for a long time.

Amazing spot for you and your younger children my daughter is four. This is her favorite place in the entire world. Delicious food. Adorable clothes. And so many different toys for my little one to play with. If you haven’t been please go

I have been so excited for Glow Worm to open and it absolutely exceeded expectations when we finally got to visit! There aren't many public places you can go where you can enjoy a coffee or meal while your toddler freely and safely plays nearby. Glow Worm is all of that, with the cutest selection of clothes available for purchase as well. This is such a gem for Louisville parents and we will certainly be here frequently!

This is my kiddo's fav place. We went twice and bought a membership right away. Great value for the money - keeps kids active and happy. I am really appreciative they require masks; keeping children well is a high priority for me during a pandemic.

Our first trip to Glow Worm was *such* a great experience! I wish I would've just gone ahead and bought a membership because we will be back. A LOT. The indoor space is clean and inviting. Play equipment was clean, organized, and durable/eco friendly. I was VERY happy that Glow Worm still requires masks - it eases my mind with a 5y/o who is mask compliant and an 8m/o who can't mask yet. I felt safe. The whole vibe was great. I felt like I could have a coffee and relax a little while my Big Kid got to actually be a kid again. Covid has really made our world feel small these last 2 years and Glow Worm held space for us. I can not adequately express what it means to my tired sad mom heart to have place like this. They owners thought of everything. There are age-appropriate spaces for a wide range of kids. There is a nursing space! With nursing pillows so you can feed your baby without killing yourself!! The changing tables, OMG - really well thought out. It made being somewhere with kids easy. Like, actually easy. I wish I didn't sound like I'm fangirling out, but I am. It was just that good to be somewhere so clearly and intentionally meant for families with kids.

Highly recommend bringing your kiss here! Very clean and nice staff with lots of options for kids. The play area is small enough where you can relax and keep your eyes on your kid (s). Lots of different play areas I was pleasantly surprised the first time I went.
