Eat, Shop, Explore and Discover at T Rex Cafe

Travel back 200 million years for a Jurassic adventure and megalosaurus-sized eats.Squawking pterosaurs, wooly mammoths, a massive undulating octopus and life-sized animatronic dinosaurs—including a 15-foot-tall T. Rex—make for a roaring good time. With themed rooms depicting diverse primordial landscapes from a color-changing ice cavern to a fern forest buzzing with giant wasps, you can spend ageswandering from area to area.

Dine on family-friendly American favorites beneath luminescent jellyfish or in a very unique section: the midsection of a triceratops! And every 20 minutes or so, witness a meteor shower complete with rumbling and fiery “explosions.”

Unearth the Past
Budding paleontologists, be sure to visit the Paleo Zone, a hands-on experience where you can dig for hidden dinosaur fossils, pan for precious treasures in Discovery Creek and learn more about “the time before time” through interactive displays.

Then stomp over to the Dino-Store, where you’ll excavate exciting educational toys, apparel an Apatosaurus would adore and other Mesozoic merchandise. For a prehistory-making memento, assemble your very own plush pet dinosaur at the Build-A-Dino® By Build-A-Bear Workshop®!
