Food & Drink

Purple Monkey no longer allows food on-site during public playtimes due to pediatric allergies. Drinks in closed containers are welcome. Filtered water and coffee are available free of charge. If your child has a “snack” emergency while playting, we welcome you to give them a few bites in the entryway to tide them over.

General Safety

Our front door is locked during. We reserve the right to refuse entry to anyone who arrives without a child. 

Strollers must be folded immediately upon entry to the playroom to discourage climbing and to keep the entryway clear. 

Roughhousing is strictly prohibited. 

We do not welcome concealed carry.

Cleanliness

Your and your child(ren)'s health is a top priority at Purple Monkey. We clean after hours to care for the interior of the space.

We avoid spraying cleaners to the extent possible when children are present. Chewed or licked toys can be taken off the play floor by placing them in the bin on the counter. 

Despite enhanced efforts, disease transmission is inherent to public settings. Purple Monkey does not make any warranties regarding your or your child’s health after visiting the playroom. We encourage you to supervise your children closely to discourage mouthing, frequent handwashing, and use of hand sanitizer which is available in the playroom.

code of conduct

While Purple Monkey strives to be a an environment of “yes” for your child, please help us to keep everyone safe by discouraging children from playing on furniture and behind the tiki hut. Diapers must be changed in the bathroom on the changing table provided.

We do not tolerate threatening behavior against our staff or other patrons for any reason. Clients who use confrontational or abusive language will be asked to leave.

Thank you for helping us to maintain a clean, safe, and fun indoor play environment!
