Playground Coffee House

Nice coffee shop in a slightly more touristy part of town.
Pretty good coffee, and lots of pastry/​cake items to go with your brew. There are also juices and loose leaf tea.
As the name suggests, there are lots of thing to play with including chess, monopoly and the swinging chairs. Not a huge amount of big spots to sit but I think the flow of people happens fast enough for a group of you to get a table if you want to beat each other in a board game and ruin relationships.
Lots of nooks for solo coffee enthusiasts to sit and read books/​work on macs whilst watching you destroy your friendships because someone won’t sell you trafalgar square to complete your three reds.

First place I’ve been to where you can swing over a very tasty flat white while watching the world go by!

Living in Seattle makes you rather experienced with coffee houses trying to be quirky and weird. This one would fit in Fremont. I’m too much of an old fart to really appreciate those antics, but they do serve really good coffee (I’ve been there two or three times spread out over some time, so there is consistency), so stop by when you’re in the area and needing a picker upper.

Great coffee, lovely staff and they’ve got SWINGS! Perfect place for a catch up over coffee, a meeting or somewhere to squirrel yourself away and get some work done.

I’ve walked passed Playground Coffee House a couple of times, always favouring Bagel Boy as it’s next door and I’m normally after a decent feed. But today I just wanted coffee so I thought I’d give it a go. What an awesome little place to hang out!
From the outside Playground looks more like a hipster arts and craft shop. But in a good way. It looks intriguing and different from a lot of coffee shops that try and be hipster — theres an irony to Playgrounds hint of hipsterness!
Get inside and the first thing you see are two wooden swings (yes swings) with a really nice chill-​out windowsill with cushions to sit on. I’m actually sat on the windowsill as a type this and it’s a really nice place to be!
Much like the outside, the décor inside Playground is different to many other coffee shops close by; refreshingly different. There’s lots of colour, swings and a few board games. It feels much more relaxing than your average chip board heavy coffee shop.
The coffee itself is really good. I went for the house flat white which was quite sweet and really moreish. It was delicious.
All in all a really nice experience and refreshing to see someone breaking the mould.
