The kids will love the train, you’ll love the time to yourself

Need to get out of the house? Head over to the Java Train Cafe in St. Paul for a midmorning getaway that’ll please both you and the kids.

Inside the Java Train Cafe.

Hanging out inside the two-story train.
There’s a train playhouse inside this cafe. The top floor offers a bird’s-eye view of the cafe, and is eye-level with a model train that clickity-clacks around the kids. If you go in the summer, there’s another playhouse outside. I love a restaurant that provides activities for kids so their parents can enjoy a real conversation with other adults.


The Java Train menu is extensive, with sandwich options such as quesadillas, beef and horseradish and  chicken ceasar wraps. Or, make your own pizza. You can also opt for breakfast, which is served all day.
The drink menu includes espressos, cold-press coffee, hot chocolates and a variety of teas, as well as a wild berry yogurt smoothie, steamers and Italian sodas.

And did I mention they have ice cream?

Yep, the owners of Java Cafe definitely had families in mind when they fashioned this cafe, situated just off Como between the state fairgrounds and Como Park.

The Java Train Cafe is midway between the state fairgrounds and Como Zoo.
