Digger cafe

Location: Víta Nejedlého 1063/10, 500 03 Hradec Králové · Hradec Králové Region

Category: indoor sandpit

A café on the upper floor of the Orlice Park shopping centre with an indoor sandpit where children play with excavators and Tatra trucks even in rainy weather; the sand is entered without shoes and play time is not limited within opening hours. Parents and teachers have café seating with coffee, toasted sandwiches, waffles and soup. Facilities include a changing table, baby food and nappies. This is not a childcare service – the accompanying adult is responsible for the children at all times.

Why visit this place?

• The indoor sandpit with diggers and Tatra trucks has no time limit within opening hours – Monday to Saturday 9–19, Sunday 10–18.
• The menu offers 11 kinds of baked toasts and the Malý bagrista set (toast, juice and sandpit); for the littlest ones there is a changing table, baby food and nappies.
• The exhibition is interactive — it expects you to touch the exhibits and try them out.
• Allow roughly an hour and a half; the programme is aimed at preschoolers and lower primary.
• There are 80 more tips within 25 km, enough to build a full-day trip.
• The whole programme is indoors, so rain is not a problem.
