Little Cocoa Bean Cafe

Little Cocoa Bean Cafe is a kid-centric cafe inside the Boston Children’s Museum in the Seaport, built for families with young children to eat, play, learn and connect. The menu changes with the seasons and uses locally sourced, fresh ingredients with culturally inspired flavors, and vegetables even find their way into the sweet treats. Recipes are simplified to keep only fresh, wholesome ingredients, in line with the cafe’s stated mission of nourishing the next generation.

The space is designed with caregivers in mind, with designated areas where little ones can safely play and explore while adults relax and recharge. Diapers, baby wipes and feminine products are stocked on site. The cafe also hosts classes and events focused on family connection, early childhood development and shared mealtimes, describing the space as a place for families to come together as a community as well as a place to eat.
