A little play place for the kids, clean enough and food was OK. There was only 1 lady working, letting people in, managing the kitchen and serving but it was a Tuesday, prior to half term, they probably wasn't expecting it to be busy and she coped really well. Small car park, which was OK based on amount of people inside. We had small babies with us, so was free and no charge for adults. Food reasonably priced, hot and enjoyable. All in all, worth while popping by if you want something to do, especially if they weather isn't great. But I wouldn't go out of my way to pop in, it isn't the biggest play area but that might be more suitable if you have a child that gets overwhelmed with the bigger ones.

Lovely play area, my kids have been coming for many years now, clean and well maintained. We have attended many party’s here too over the years. My only niggle is that the food is pricey especially the snacks 2 x packets of Pom bears and 2 tubes of smarties was almost £5 Also it’s often understaffed, one lady in there today who was running round answering door, taking orders, clearing tables and cooking. I completely understand that you can’t guarantee what the footfall will be but maybe when it’s colder / wet weather think that it will be busier ? That said the kids love it here !! We are regular customers

Good sized soft play with good provision and visibility and felt clean. Efficient staff on the day and the birthday we attended went well. Nice little set up with the mini cafe. Coffee was ok but the mocha came out way too sweet and so not enjoyable, only disappointing thing given the price. Parking is limited for parties but managed to find somewhere close once we found the place as google maps sent me to the neighbouring industrial estate. Would be happy to go again but we live a little way away so probably won’t unless meeting a friend.

Lovely little softplay, good value and food very reasonably priced. My toddler loved it, the small size meant he had the confidence to go round by himself. Best soft play in the area.
