“Connected Cafe” – a new KL eatery, perfect with little ones

As I’m always on the lookout for new places to visit, I want to give a little shout out to this new cafe in Mont Kiara.

With its colorful exterior, Connected Cafe KL offers coffee enthusiasts its very own house blend, fresh juices, a breakfast menu and plenty of light bites and desserts! 

While I can’t comment personally on their food, I can tell you that they have a kids menu and also a play area in plain sight, so mums and dads can grab a coffee and a bite to eat while the little ones are kept busy with toys!

 So nice to see this happening more and more; I’m always so appreciative of an eatery that welcomes families and has a dedicated play space! 

Pass by if you’re in the Solaris area and let me know what you think! 

With sweet treats like this, it’s gotta be trying out! Check out their FB page here for the full menu, opening hours and more! Enjoy, S x

Good Friends Restaurant and Cafe – great for dining with children.

While on our day of discovery in Shah Alam this weekend, I really wanted to try one of the little cafes that are always featured on the ‘eating out for with children’ lists!
So, we headed over to Good Friends Restaurant & Cafe over
in SS17.

 

Welcome to Good Friends Restaurant & Cafe!

 
This little place certainly pulls quite a crowd at lunch time, but that is just testimony to how popular (and good!) it is! 

A little wall art above their kitchen!

 

The menu is lovely with everything from soups and sandwiches to rice and noodle dishes and even a ‘create your own pasta’ option.  

Great variety on the menu and a separate offering for the little ones

 

They have a separate children’s menu which is available on request and some lovely fresh juices served in glass bottles on ice!  

Nice selection of truly fresh juices – served like this!

 

In addition to their range of cakes and scones for dessert, they also have Pop Wagon Popsicles, which are home-made popsicles made from real fruits and fresh ingredients which come in the cutest of designs and the most original of flavours!  

Their very own Pop Wagon Popsicles. cool and colourful!

 

The food was lovely and tasty, staff extremely pleasant but, of course, the children’s play zone topped it off and made it truly child-friendly! A carpeted area offers boxes full of wooden blocks, dinosaurs, puzzles and even a train track which a certain little boy straight away set up for everyone! 

The play zone in the corner of the cafe.

 

 It’s a bit of a jumble, but there’s books, soft toys and cars too so lots of different bits n pieces to keep little hands busy while you sit and enjoy a coffee after your meal! Worth a visit if you’re in the area!

Lots of different things to keep little hands busy!

 
 

‘Noriter’ – one of the best child-friendly cafes in KL

I promised you I’d check out a few of these ‘family cafes’ that we often hear about so here we go with today’s post-gym outing! 
‘Noriter’ is the definition of child-friendly and ticks off SO many boxes; from having high chairs and bibs available, to having the most well-equipped play area I’ve seen in a long time!

Located on the top floor of 1 Mont Kiara Shopping Mall, this light, bright space is lovely and really should be on your to-do-list!

With teas, coffees, fresh juices, baby cinos and a nice selection of food on the menu (to include compotes and veggie/mash combos for babies over 6 months old!) I really can’t fault the place!

Spend 20RM on food & beverage to get free access to the play area for little ones which is kept safe with a child gate, has sanitizer for little hands and a fabulous array of toys for babies and young children.

With friendly staff, free wifi, a little mum and baby area with changing table and mat, this will be hard to beat! And on top of all that, if you have children under the age of 6 who aren’t in daycare or at pre-school on a Tuesday morning, drop by for their story-telling session with songs, rhymes and games. It doesn’t get any better than that! Have a good weekend everyone, S x
