“Our experience at the Gamebox in Manchester was absolutely amazing. The kids completely went wild with excitement — they had so much fun and couldn’t stop smiling. Everything was fantastic, and every activity was great fun for all of us. A huge thank you to Abi and Caitlin for their amazing support. They looked after us so well and made the whole experience even better. Thanks again for everything!”

“Brilliant experience! The games were amazing and the staff were brilliant. We’ve visited a few times and we always have great fun! You can order drinks to the room as you can get hot moving around! We always dress in summer clothes to stay cool :) Caitlin & Francis were lovely.”
