Urban Life is great. The kids play area is fenced off and is impressive for a cafe! The food is good (selection isnt' maaaaassive but that's ok), offering desserty things and lunchy things. I don't drink coffee, but their hot chocolate is good! Lots of seating, and they have a large open area indoors for kids to run about in. Alternatively, if you need a trestle table put up for a large group (ie: mum's group) then they are most accomodating. Staff are very nice and professional.

I was almost too scared to try this place out given the above reviews! I went last Friday morning (10am) and there was plenty of parking and I got a table easily. I ordered a muffin which was quite nice and priced very reasonably ($2.20). The kids area was great - heaps to do. I didn't see any dirty equipment and my table was clean. I didn't order a drink...but everyone else seemed to and I didn't see anyone peering into their cups and complaining they were dirty!

The lighting was fine - not sure why it would be so bad given it's an indoor sports centre and they would need good lighting for night games! So that complaint isn't valid I think.

Not sure how busy it would have gotten after I left, but it was still quite reasonable in the carpark when I did leave at 11.30. I'll be going back next week.
