Gilli Café

Tucked in the heart of Newmarket, Gilli Café is a rare find: a city café with a whole dedicated upstairs play space for little ones. While the kids dive into the toddler-friendly playground and ball pit, parents can settle in for excellent coffee and a menu spanning European, Asian fusion, vegetarian and vegan dishes — think croque madame, Italian bowls, Thai salads and Cajun burgers.

It's a relaxed, beautifully designed spot where families can actually enjoy a meal out. Just a 4-minute walk from Broadway Cinemas, with plenty to keep toddlers happy and grown-ups well-fed.
