"My little guy and I have spent many many early mornings together at this coffee shop. We have also been to many events here and loved every single one of them. Everything we’ve had from the menu we’ve enjoyed and the price is worth the time you spend there. Thank you for providing a safe place to play during any weather!"

"Fantastic place to have a young child’s birthday party! I held my son’s 3rd birthday party ant Scout and had an amazing experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, you can rent a bouncy castle for a small extra charge, which they inflate and deflate for you. They have tables they will put out for you, and the little ones always have a blast playing there! Thank you Scout for a great party at my son’s favourite place!!!"

"We love Scout and go fairly frequently. The coffee and snacks are great and the environment is everything as a mom with young kids when I need to get out of the house. We recently had my four year olds birthday party there and it was perfect. Everything was seamless and all the parents kept raving about what a great set up it was."

"Scout's is a great place to host children's parties! I have been both as a guest and as a host. They make it so easy and stress free. Very affordable pricing as well. Defiantly one of my favorite play places to attend! Highly recommend for birthdays. I haven't tried any of their food but the specialty coffee's are always great!"

"We wanted to try a “local” coffee shop, so we drove past all the chains and stopped by Scout Coffee for the first time! It was lovely! We browsed the books and trinkets for sale inside then sat outside to enjoy the spring day. There was a birthday party being setup as well. The concept was refreshing. I will have to make a trip back with my daughter so she play in the play area while I have my latte"

"I've been here for food and coffee play dates with friends and also had my 2 year olds birthday party here and it's always a fantastic experience. The prices are reasonable even for the party and the coffee is fantastic. I now invite all my friends to meet me for coffee here so I can let the toddler play and I can actually catch up with adults."
