Crema's Take
“New Day Play Cafe is a rare find: a genuinely welcoming third space where parents can actually enjoy excellent coffee while their kids burn energy in a thoughtfully designed play area. The owner's genuine warmth and attention to both children and adults creates the kind of calm, unhurried atmosphere that makes you want to linger for hours, and the pastries and drinks hold their own against any specialty coffee shop, kid-friendly or not. If you're in Emporia with children, this should be at the top of your list.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

I hosted my kiddos 4th birthday party here. The owner was very accommodating, we were able to come in a little early and set up. The play space is contained for the kiddos- with something for every kid. There are stools and a bar top lining part of the play area so grown ups can…
