"Please be aware that there is broken glass and we cannot tamper with it until forensics have been.
"We have spent three hours cleaning all the play area and all toys have been hand cleaned then sanitised.
"Big thank you Gary, Wookie and Declan for coming out to help at 2am.
"Its OK to feel angry or sad but the best thing everyone can do is Stop In and Geek Out and keep enjoying the café.
"No one was hurt (other than the person who smashed the window!) which is the main thing.
