πŸ† Funzaroo Verdict

Best for families with babies through to primary-age children who want a spacious, secure play environment with quality refreshments. The role-play stations reward imaginative play and the cinema sessions add variety. Parents of toddlers should supervise carefully as some areas contain small toy parts.

β€œI adore this play area! It’s so worth the money you get such a long time to stay and play. The atmosphere is lovely and it’s never too overcrowded, which is an added bonus. I was surprised by how big the play area is as it goes right back into the building. One thing I noticed was there was lots of small bits/toys with little additional parts that some children (definitely mine) would put in their mouths and could choke on. Obviously you supervise your child constantly but I noticed some people don’t, which is fine for them live and let live, it just had me on egg shells. The way the play area has been designed is so lovely and my son is very pleased everytime we go. 10/10 would recommend. And will most certainly be returning, thank you x”

β€œI’ve visited here loads of times with my 11 month old who isn’t overly mobile and we always have a good time. Great coffee, cakes and the toys are lovely. The staff are super helpful, especially today after someone let their older kids into the baby bit and then left them unsupervised to throw building blocks at my baby. I get kids will be kids and all, but the lady was such a bully to me when I tried to say something to her and I felt I had no choice but to leave the session. The staff handled it really discreetly and I’d be more than happy to return in the future.”

β€œChose here for my daughter's birthday party, and had such a wonderful time. All the children that came LOVED it, and all the adults loved the matcha πŸ˜† I had such a lovely time around close family and friends, and I was so happy that we were able to do it Wonder & Wild. The staff were amazing, and the birthday card to us was such a nice gesture too. Would definitely recommend!”
