Planning your childs Birthday party needn't be stressful, believe it or not you can actually enjoy the day too. That Place On The Corner seems to be North London's experts in the field, not only do they have a fabulous corner plot with windows all around, but their new refurb has seen them add a stunning mural to their already enchanting space. All food is prepared on the premises using only the finest ingredients from local suppliers such as Frank Godfreys and The Fishery,
"we have managed to bridge the gap between what parents want their Children to eat and what the Children want to eat at a party, we know we've got it right because the plates are clean when the children leave the table".
That Place On The Corner really do offer a one stop shop and can organise all of the entertainment from magicians and puppet shows to discos' and Harry Potter lookalikes or Faries and Drama parties.
"We can cater to any budget and can offer small after school tea parties from as little as £85, Sunday morning breakfast parties with arts and crafts or jewellery make workshops are also extremely popular and offer a value for money alternative to braving it at home".
You can also relax and let them take care of the party bags and Birthday cake too, as one satisfied customer put it " Wonderful food and entertainment my little boy has had the time of his life, it felt like nothing was too much trouble for your staff, is it too early to book for next year"?
That Place on the Corner is so much more than a corner cafe. This is a great place to go if you have kids or are babysitting. I meet a friend and her little girl at the cafe and at first I had an inner groan as I entered and say the space filled with children. I love kids, but since I don't have any an afternoon of screaming kids is not very appealing. But I was immediately impressed by the number of activities they have for kids, it gave the grown-ups a bit of a break in a space that feels very safe and kid friendly.
This is a cafe for kids. There was face painting , dress up, stories and all sorts of treats that kids love. Even though the noise level got a bit high from time to time, it was just fun to sit and watch kids have a good time. We sipped tea and were able to talk without constantly hovering over our little charge all afternoon. It was a nice break for Mom .
Catering to the needs of both parents and children is a hard thing to do, but That Place on the Corner, located in Newington Green, seems to have got it just right.
With tasteful decoration, That Place on the Corner looks more like the playroom of a aristocratic child in Victorian times with a brightly coloured velvet and silk window seat, vintage wooden tables, a little library and beautifully crafted play shop and a dressing up corner.
A weekly schedule of baking, crafting, dancing and music making for preschoolers during the day and more programs for the after-school crowd, your children are sure to be kept busy with the variety of creative activities offered at That Place on the Corner.
To top off the extensive activities is the food. The children's menu offers wholesome staples like pasta, burgers, chicken,
fish cakes and even a daily organic baby blend, while the parental choices are a bit more exciting with options like
Goat Cheese Salad, Breaded Plaice Goujons and Panini Sandwiches on the menu.
"A children's cafe with dressing up cupboard, That Place on the Corner in Newington Green was set up by two mums who know what parents and kids are looking for in a cafe. That means a really good kids menu made with organic food, books for them to read and a play area. They do a story in the afternoon as well, art club, music and movement. Oh and unaccompanied adults are not allowed.
