Quick question - Brunch Downtown NYC w/stroller

Thread Starter 
My wife has a friend coming to visit this weekend. Friend is staying somewhere in Soho. Need a suggestion for a good brunch spot that could fit a sizeable stroller. We have one of those enormous strollers with the car seat built in (not an umbrella stroller). Therefore... a smallish place like Prune is out of the question.

Looking for the Soho, Nolita, Village area. Last weekend we went to Hundred Acres and had no problem with the stroller. Any other ideas for stroller friendly brunch???

Thanks!

Edit--- My son is only 10 weeks old and will (hopefully) sleep the entire time.

Do you guys want to try the Ideya kids brunch or is it too stroller friendly ?

Excellent idea! But probably not this weekend. Is that fun for kids? I am going to tell my wife about that. Haven't been to Ideya in a long time.

My son is only 10 weeks old and sleeps the entire time. I should have provided that detail in my 1st post.

I think we are looking for a good brunch place that will be stroller friendly. Our son will not be eating, etc...

LOL definitely not Felix. Jane maybe but always overpacked and long waits.

You should go to Cafe Falai on Lafayette - they expanded the space and is pretty roomy now. More importantly, the manager and staff love babies and are super friendly - often go out of their way to accomodate our annoying double stroller

I sent my wife a link to the Falai website. Excellent idea. Thanks!

Jane is also a good choice. But it seems like there is always a wait outside. I go to Felix when my Italian friends are in town. They love that place!!!

Cafe Falai was great. Thanks again for the suggestion. My wife and I will be going there for dinner in the near future.

I guess it's too late, but in the future you can try Bubby's on Hudson.

It would be a favorite spot for brunch, if it didn't turn into a pre-school on the weekends. (Plus, I hate brunch.) I think they have a designated spot for parking strollers.

And because its in Tribeca, you can see a fantastic collection of the finest strollers money can buy.
