The play space is laid out with natural wood toys and Montessori based play. The coffee shop serves the best and most beautiful lattes. Big shoutout to the baristas and the play space attendant for making sure everything was impeccable at every moment.

I have been here a few times and we hosted our daughters 1st birthday at The Lullabar. She loved it and everyone had a great time. Everything was clean and the decor is beautiful. The play area is so great to let little ones explore and the staff is incredibly kind and helpful. Highly recommend for drinks or a birthday party!

This is our go to place. Whether I need a place to get my daughter's energy out or just for me to get some work done. Their strawberry matcha latte has me in a chokehold. We even rented out the play space for our daughter's birthday and Christine and her team were more than accommodating! Highly highly recommend coming here.

Last weekend we held my daughter's birthday party in the patio space, and it was fantastic! We were able to bring in themed decorations and cater in food (and having their café available for custom coffee and drinks was a nice addition)! My daughter and her friends had a blast in the play area for the first portion of the party and then we continued the festivities in the patio area. It was an amazing day she will always remember. As a Mom, I was thrilled with the staff and service we received throughout the party. The Lullabar is truly a much needed resource for both care givers and children in north county!
