"Okay so here's the deal: I don't have kids, I don't want kids, and generally, kid-focused businesses drive me a little crazy. Family Grounds Cafe is definitely the exception. Don't get me wrong - this place is a wonderful oasis for folks to visit with their little ones. But the layout and ambiance of this cafe really lends itself to welcoming child-free people as well." - L.N
