Cafe's Suitable for Parents and Children
So after reading the post about a cafe in Petone, I thought perhaps post something positive and helpful. I'm a Dad and raised my son for 2 and a half years, I fully accept that this is my choice and as such some things I usually do will need rethinking. So for those of you out there with young children here are some suggestions for cafe's that welcome or are a better option.
Scorchorama (Scorching Bay) Summertime they have tables outside and there is a beach and rope climbing frame for the kids.
Bernie's (Freyberg Pool) Great as quick service and you can use the playground and beach nearby.
The Flying Bean (Petone) Lots of parking and kids can play in the beach.
Begonia House (Botanical Gardens) Large open space, also next to gardens so the kids can run around, bonus it also does wine!
Cafe ??? (Waitangi Park) Yes it outdoors but they do nice crepes and the kids can play on the climbing frame.
Frank Kitts Park - Lovely to sit down and enjoy a coffee on the waterfront, several places or vans selling coffee.
Days Bay Pavillion - Has toys for the kids to ride around
Chocolate Fish (Shelly Bay) - Outside play area and bikes, scooters and stuff to ride on.
These are just some of the places Monty and I have been made welcome, have had fun and do return to on our adventures.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
