I've been a member of the Font climbing gym for the past four months and every day has been amazing. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, the gym itself is fantastic, and the climbing is fun and social. The route setting team does a great job keeping the routes fresh and the gym itself is always clean. The student discount is an additional treat! A lovely gym if you live in the southwark neighborhood!

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families with teenagers or older children who are already interested in climbing and want a social, central London gym environment. The progressive route grading and regular resets support skill development.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

πŸ’‘Visit on weekday mornings or early afternoons to avoid peak crowds
⏰Bring your own chalk β€” holds accumulate rubber and become slippery between resets
🎟️Pack light as locker space is sparse inside the venue
πŸš—Under-18s coaching sessions require advance booking β€” check the schedule online

Your details go only to the venue you’re contacting, so they can reply β€” we never sell them or share them with anyone else. By sending an enquiry you agree to our Privacy Policy.

β€œGreat. TB2 is amazing. Facilities are good, large changing areas, good weights and the board room has nice natural light which is rare for a UK gym. Staff were also very helpful and they had a good selection of fizzy drinks.”

β€œGreat place, AMAZING playlists and friendly staff. Only reason for 4/5 stars is they don’t have as many walls as other venues (I don’t blame them, though. It’s a small space).”
