Chat & Play Cafe is a unique location enjoyed by so many local families and even those who travel from Charlottesville and Hanover to enjoy a meal with friends, while their young children play and make new friends.

Every week I get emails and calls about opening a Chat & Play Cafe in your area. I have had serious interest from PA, GA, LA, Indiana, and even Saudi Arabia! These calls are from people who have only had a chance to check us out on line. I have had many more requests  from local moms asking us to open a venue in Henrico (Short Pump), Midlothian, Chester, Richmond City and Hanover. 

Chat & Play Cafe has the potential to be placed in every suburb that has a large family population. The cafe has a size of 2000 square feet which means that it can easily be located in any strip mall. We are primarily a restaurant/coffee shop that caters to families by offering a play area and entertainment.

Why Franchise? 
Most businesses fail due to the steep learning curve endured through setting up and starting a business. I have been through that curve and I have learned through my mistakes and now I can  help you quickly set up your own Chat & Play Cafe. My promise to you is to hold your hand through every step from location advice to design, suppliers, builders (if local) menu/coffee training, accounting, financing and advertising. I will make sure that I support you every step of the way, and yet encourage you to bring in your own style and creativity so that your Chat & Play Cafe reflects you the owner.

Would a franchise work for me?
Chat & Play is a great business for moms to own as you can take your kids to work and schedule your children's events into your work week. Although I started Chat & Play myself I soon realized that a business works best as a partnership which I now have. I get to go to work every day with my best friend and between us we have 5 children under 8! We have plenty of fun and a great working relationship. So if you are interested then I strongly suggest that you run a Chat & Play with a partner or even 4 moms to really lighten the load and have double the fun! 

Why now?
The comments I get on a daily basis are "Wow" "What a great idea, have you thought about putting one...." "The menu is great" "Wow-I can actually sit and talk while I watch my kids play, this is wonderful." "You should franchise this because it would be great in..."
People want a Chat & Play Cafe on their doorstep. Mom's want the opportunity go back to work and take their kids with them, so this way you can have it all.

These franchise opportunities are going to be taken up fast, so if you are seriously interested please call Louise or Michelle at Chat & Play Cafe (804) 818 3026 or 3027
