Mini Social is a multi-use venue in Old Town Scottsdale. Whether you are looking to host a baby shower, throw a birthday party, or looking for a photoshoot location--we're the place for you! Our 2700 sq. We threw my daughter's first birthday at Mini Social. It was basically like having a birthday party in the comfort of your home without the clean-up or other stress.
I highly recommend Mini Social for private events! Mini Social was amazing in every way! Britney helped me along the entire process and the day of had everything I forgot. My guests loved the space and the kids had a blast with the toys. Setup and clean up was so easy and loved the fact that we didn't have someone breathing down our necks the entire party.

This venue is incredible!! The staff is so kind. Lane helped me unload my car and get setup before a big networking brunch I was hosting for creative entrepreneurs. All the tables were setup perfectly for our group, and it had everything I needed for setup! Obviously I brought my own serving dishes and utensils, but there were a few "dang it" moments where I was saved by what they've stocked up with. I'm going to be using this venue from now on for every event I host!!

We threw my daughter’s 3rd birthday here and I would say the great venue for any kind of party's. Mini social provides us with everything we need, chairs, tables, a speaker for music, kids' toys, they have a kitchen area, a fridge and they even helped out a lot unloading and loading items from my car, offering to help. I highly recommend them. I will plan to celebrate my daughter’s 4th birthday here again. Thank you mini social.

It s such an awesome place for parties and gatherings.we threw our daughters 2nd birthday party over there and we are still stuck to the place.well maintained place with good amount of seatings for adults and kids were entertained with the play setup over there. The kitchen area was super handy and spacious to keep all our food and other stuffs. Manager was very friendly and helped us to have our party without any disturbance or any other hurdles. It was like having a party at home away from home. I would definitely have more events here and would recommend it to everyone!!!

The 21 month old I nanny thoroughly enjoys visiting here! It's very nice that they offer various snacks/lunch items. It costs 9 dollars per child which is a bit steep for what they offer. It is also a bit warm in there. Kiddo and I are sweating after 20 minutes or so. They either need to invest in fans or turn the AC down.

I'm updating my review as I came in again just to try it out and the experience was completely different. It was much calmer, cleaner and the employees seemed to be on par. Much more impressed this time around!
Not a fan. It's basically just letting your kid run around in some rich person's messy living room. I say rich because the toys were very nice so that's a plus.
They sell food and snacks which is a positive and negative at the same time. You'll see why I say negative...
That being said, on the website it looks clean and nice but in real life it's a mess with

We had our daughter’s bday party here and we could not have chosen a better place. Brittany and Chloe were very professional and helpful through the entire process. The place was very clean and Kelly was extremely helpful at the party!! She took care of decorations and setting up food and helped us wrap up in no time. I did not even have to worry about keeping all person stuff and birthday supplies safe. She took care of everything while I enjoyed the party with my little one!! Lots of toys for little ones to play with. Highly recommend this for a private event!!

Held my child's 1st birthday party here and hands down the BEST experience!! Would highly recommend hosting any event here. Chloe was wonderful and so helpful! The space was perfect and clean! It was everything I could hope for and more for his birthday! Very impressed with the space and the company! Will definitely be using this space again in the future and coming back during the week to play!

We came here while we were out of town for our 2.5 year old to play while we relaxed a little. This place is SO cute and has amazing quality toys! He had a blast and so did we. I wish we had a place like this where we lived. It's great to meet up with mom friends for play dates, or to work on your laptop!

We absolutely love coming to play here! My two boys love all the toys and I love that the toys are all educational and don't have lights and sounds. The place is so clean, even when there are tons of kids around.
My son loves the potty seat for kids, which as great when he was potty training.
There have been other reviews about wishing it was open later - for us it's never been a problem. Seriously if we could go here everyday, we would!

I wouldn't even bother. It's bad enough to hear there isn't a lot for the children to play with but for them to charge $5 for a baby who can't even roll over yet, let alone crawl or stay awake long enough to play, not that he can play yet anyway that's just too much. I don't know how they can justify $5 just to let a 3 month old breath air in there but she sure tried to justify it.

Oh man. So. Many. Toys. And mom doesn't nag me about cleaning up afterwards.
This place is kind of like my playpen at home, only twenty times bigger. There's iced coffee and tables for the adults but the rest of the place is just for us. For $9 you can hang out all day. Beats a Gymboree membership for sure.
One thing that bums me out is that it closes at 2pm. If I could stay until 5 I would, because there's not much else for a munchkin like me to do in the 100+ degree heat.

Super cute coffee + kids corner in old town Scottsdale. Took my toddler in for the first time today and he loved it. Cool place to meet people and socialize while kids play. My only recommendation is I wish they had music playing or something it was a little too quiet, I think that would really enhance the ambiance of the place and I wish they had a pass you can purchase to come in an x amount of times monthly, each visit is 9$. They also own a kids boutique next door a little pricey but everything is so cute and organic. I will bring my son back.

This is a great place to bring small children (4 & under) if you work remotely. I have taken my 2.5 year old here a few mornings when my babysitter canceled and I was forced to work remotely. There are plenty of toys to keep him busy while I work, and the lunch menu is great as well (the food is delivered from The Herb Box). The staff and the other customers have always been very friendly which, as a dad, I am ultra sensitive to in places like this. Most importantly, though, getting work done with small child in tow = priceless. Highly recommended!
