Looking for a place to bring the little ones on a rainy day when you’re both going crazy? Check out Sovereign Grounds in south Minneapolis. It’s a coffee shop that also bills itself as an indoor playground. I know you’ve been looking for a place like this!
- The indoor playground. It's not huge, but it's enough.
Sovereign Grounds is located just off the corner of 48th and Chicago in South Minneapolis and has been there since 1995. Owner Hakan Sezer immigrated to the United States from Turkey in 1988. He’s typically behind the counter making espresso and selling the various bakery items, spinach pie and tamales his wife wakes up early to make. I recommend staying away from the espresso (which always tastes burnt) and trying the Turkish Roast instead. There are juice boxes and a number of sugary treats for the kids, if you’re so inclined.
The place is usually pretty busy in the mornings, but clears out for nap time. It’s a great place for a play date, that’s for sure. It’s too bad there aren’t more out there.
