Kidspace Croydon
📍 Croydon, Greater London
Massive indoor play venue with go-karts, black-hole slides, soft-ball arenas, Draw Alive interactive activities, and a dedicated under-5s zone. Two-hour sessions include access to all areas and an on-site restaurant.
We visited this play space on the weekend, and it was very crowded with both children and adults. Everyone was running around, playing and having fun, sometimes even bumping into each other. Unfortunately, there were very few staff members, which was noticeable. Small balls were scattered everywhere. My child and I collected many of them and brought them back to the ball pit, while other visitors mostly ignored them and just tripped over them. In the food area, all the tables were dirty. Visitors did not clean up after themselves, and only one staff member was trying to manage everything, which was clearly not enough. On the positive side, the play area itself was clean, made of wood, and most of the equipment worked well. Only some of the vacuum machines in the small ball area were not working. The play space is designed in an interesting way and is suitable for children of different ages. Overall, my child had a good time here.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families with mixed-age children aged 6 months to 12 — the dedicated under-5s zone and the go-karts for older children mean different ages can be catered for simultaneously. Two-hour sessions are well-paced for energy levels. Weekday visits are noticeably less crowded with more attentive staffing.

“Best place ever!!! The staff members are so fun they did so much they went down slides she did racing rock-climbing with me and she helped me on the go Karts then, showed me another secret room hidden behind the climbing walls that i didnt know about. The chef he was so good at cooking i ordered a cheeseburger and it was AMAZING!!! The bun was nice and crispy the cheese was so melted and stretchy. The meat was so juicy and delicous he even gave me a free delicious fruity juice it was fantastic 😋 best experience ever!!! I definitely reccomend By Emily phee Age 9”

“Took our young son here recently. He loved it. He had so much fun. Lots to explore and experience here for the little ones including go-karting. The entry ticket is for 2 hours. Good length of time for both playing and eating. Staff are friendly and helpful. The served foods are good too. We had cheese pizza and jacket potato with tuna mayo. Overall, my son really enjoyed it. We are planning to visit here again in the not too distance future. Definitely highly recommended.”

“Kids Space was such an exciting place to take my boys! £40 for 2hours and honestly… money well spent because I don’t think they had another hour left in them 🤣🤣. A 10-year-old, a 5-year-old, and me running after the little one making sure he didn’t get lost 😅. Everyone had the best time including me 🤣”
