★★★★★Featured review by Sandy

I had my child’s party here and it was such a lovely experience. The soft play provided entertainment for all 12 children that attended (aged between 1 and 3). The lunch boxes were really sweet and it was great that we could still bring our own cake and decorations. The staff were really helpful thoughout and it felt like a home from home. It’s such a beautiful environment, feels much nicer than your average soft play with everything feeling of a high quality (from the tables to the soft play area itself and the way the cafe is styled). I would highly recommend a small party here for little ones, the time absolutely flew by!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with babies and toddlers aged 1–3 who want a premium, unhurried softplay experience with genuinely attentive staff. The intimate scale is the point — parents can relax at a named table and maintain full sight lines without tracking a child across a large building.

We have visited The Softplay Cafe on multiple occasions now and my twins love it. For us it’s just the right size. Small enough that I am confident for them to play without my supervision (although you can see all areas) but also big enough that during the 1.5 hour visit they don’t get bored. The sensory corner is cute as well. Kamarah and the team are all lovely and so welcoming. The service is A* and the “light bites” are fresh and tasty. Prices are also affordable/reasonable. It’s a lovely addition to the area and I wish them all the success ❤️

This was genuinely the most wonderful play café I’ve ever visited. The space was amazing, and the lovely lady working there today was an absolute gem — her customer service was honestly the best I’ve ever experienced. The atmosphere was so warm, welcoming, and relaxing, with such a lovely ambience. My toddler had the best time playing, I enjoyed a great coffee, and even my newborn had a fabulous nap. Thank you so much! xx

This is by far one of the best soft play’s I’ve visited with my toddler. The staff are consistently helpful, friendly, and genuinely caring. My little one always has a great time here, and the fact that it’s also a café is an added bonus. Highly recommend!
