Our favorite family-friendly places to sip, snack, shop, play, and spend a little more time while at Lafayette Village.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long before Tutu School North Raleigh opened its doors, I had my eye on Lafayette Village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I first toured a space here back in 2014, dreaming about what it might be like to someday bring Tutu School to this little corner of North Raleigh. More than a decade later, we\u2019ve finally joined the neighborhood\u2014and it feels especially sweet to call Lafayette Village in North Raleigh home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There were so many things that drew me to the Village over the years, but one of the biggest was simply seeing how many families gather here. With its European-inspired architecture, walkable paths, outdoor seating, and tree-lined Green at the center of it all, Lafayette Village feels like so much more than a shopping center. It\u2019s a gathering place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On any given day, the Green seems to be bustling with families, little ones running and playing, neighbors meeting for coffee, and events bringing everyone together. We\u2019re so excited for Tutu School to become part of that community, too\u2014and to participate in Village events, including the upcoming Oktoberfest on October 3rd!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And now that we\u2019re officially here, we thought it would be fun to introduce our Tutu School families to a few of our new neighbors. Because ballet class certainly can<\/em> be the main event\u2014but it can also be the beginning of a whole little Lafayette Village outing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FOR COFFEE, SMOOTHIES & A BITE TO EAT<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Jubala<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you haven\u2019t had a Jubala biscuit yet, consider this your sign to run\u2014not walk. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lafayette Village was the original home of this beloved local coffee shop, and it\u2019s easy to understand why it\u2019s almost always bustling. Along with really wonderful coffee, Jubala serves breakfast and lunch, pastries, waffles, and, yes, those biscuits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few favorites from our family: the biscuit with apple butter, the Nutella banana waffle, and chai for me. My husband would also like it officially noted that their almond milk latte is the best in town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re grabbing coffee before a morning ballet class, splitting a waffle with your dancer afterward, or staying for lunch, it\u2019s an easy addition to a Tutu School day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juicekeys<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Juicekeys practically became my second office while we were building Tutu School North Raleigh, so I got very well acquainted with both their menu and their incredibly kind team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This locally owned juice and smoothie bar serves cold-pressed juices, smoothies, smoothie bowls, and healthy little bites that make it an especially easy stop with kiddos. We drank a lot<\/em> of Juicekeys during construction\u2014and our Tutu School team has already continued the tradition since opening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Little ones may also be particularly fond of Ollie, the Juicekeys mascot, and the adorable fruit-shaped stools inside. \ud83c\udf53<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FOR A SWEET LITTLE DATE WITH YOUR DANCER<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Le Macaron French Pastries<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We are a ballet school, after all, so we\u2019re never going to say no to a little French flair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le Macaron is an especially sweet stop for a post-class date with your dancer. Choose a colorful macaron together, share some gelato, pick out a chocolate, or take home a French pastry for later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes the very best family traditions are the simplest ones: ballet class followed by a tiny treat together sounds pretty magical to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chocolate Boutique<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And if chocolate is more your family\u2019s love language, Lafayette Village has you covered there, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chocolate Boutique is filled with handcrafted chocolates and sweet treats and even hosts chocolate-making experiences. This is one Village neighbor we\u2019re still looking forward to exploring ourselves\u2014which feels like a very good assignment to have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FOR A LITTLE SHOPPING<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Drool & Co<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re not the only new kids in the Village!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drool & Co opened just a few months ahead of us and is such a beautiful addition to the neighborhood. Their thoughtfully curated shop is filled with baby and children\u2019s clothing, books, gifts, gear, and finds for growing families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If there\u2019s a new baby\u2014or a baby shower!\u2014somewhere in your life, this is a particularly fun shop to have right around the corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ella Collective<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And not every stop has to be for the tiny dancer. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ella Collective is a beautiful modern-bohemian lifestyle boutique filled with women\u2019s apparel and accessories, home finds, and a curated collection of clothing for babies and kids, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider this your permission to arrive a few minutes early and browse before ballet pickup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AND DON\u2019T FORGET THE FURRY FAMILY MEMBERS\u2026<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Directly across from our studio is Woofinwaggle<\/strong><\/a>, a dog wash, grooming spa, and boutique filled with treats, toys, supplies, and goodies for four-legged family members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of our favorite little perks of our studio windows is watching freshly fluffed pups parade by after their appointments. So if your family includes a furry member, be sure to pop across the way and say hello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

OR SIMPLY\u2026STAY AND PLAY<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Honestly, one of our favorite Lafayette Village recommendations doesn\u2019t require buying anything at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After ballet class, take your coffee and a snack and head over to the Green. Let your little dancer get the rest of those wiggles out running beneath the trees while you sit for a few minutes and enjoy being there. It\u2019s one of our favorite family-friendly places in North Raleigh to linger before or after ballet class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And we may just have something fun with our Fit4Mom friends in the works, too\u2026 stay tuned. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s one of the things I\u2019ve always loved about Lafayette Village: families don\u2019t just come here to complete an errand and leave. They linger. They meet friends. They eat together. Kids play. Moms work out together. The Village hosts events. It feels like a place where community can actually happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And these are only a few of our new neighbors. Lafayette Village is filled with locally owned restaurants, shops, and services, with plenty of options for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or an afternoon spent wandering around together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Explore the full Lafayette Village directory <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We dreamed about joining this neighborhood for a long time, and now that we\u2019re finally here, we\u2019re so excited to become part of the community that already makes Lafayette Village special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We hope ballet class becomes just one piece of the memories your family makes here. Come a little early. Stay a little late. Grab a coffee, share a treat, discover a new favorite shop, or simply let your dancer twirl around the Green.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll see you around the Village. \ud83d\udc95<\/p>\n\n\n\n
