Why kids will love the place: Kids and the entire family will love this place. With great food and outdoor play area for kids, Cream Centre is always a favourite. It can get a little noisy inside because of the family crowd inside, but who knows, your child might make a new friend while you are busy dining! My kid didn’t mind all the noise as she was busy with the activity sheets they provided- a big relief! Don’t miss their Paneer ka baap sizzlers and Nachos!
