    Full of unsupervised children on school trips…read more Too claustrophobic for smaller children. Not enough staff to run the activities they have for kids. Pretty much a waste of time and money for us. But wait! Let us upsell you more!

    What a blast. I loved it!!…read more I was lucky enough the other night to get a ticket for the adults night and had such a good time. I thought when I saw the tickets were valued at £29 that it was a bit on the expensive side, but it was 4hours of solid fun. Kidzania is really aimed at children aged 7-11. It's to give them a sample of working life in a fun way. It's informative, plus they can earn money for some roles, and have to pay to do some fun things. On arrival we were greeted with a glass of Prosecco, in a mock up British Airways check-in area. This was alos where you could check bags etc in that you did not want to lug around. After going through the metal detector, you are greeting by the sight of a mini city on two levels. It's a really big space, with about 60 jobs and experiences to choose from. Unfortunately it seems that only 8 people at a time can do the roles, so you need to plan your time well, as you could find yourself spending most of the 4 hours waiting in line. There were some other yelpers there, so we decided that the first thing we would do, would be the chocolate making with Cadbury's as we had been tipped off that this was popular and gets busy later on during the session. It was fun we then went next door to make an All Natural Honey Nut bar. The real fun for me started when we went downstairs. Elisa T and i first tried our hands at being couriers. We had to collect parcels from the jewellers and British Airways, as well as bleed from the hospital, which we then had to return everything to base.We than ah a go at being police officers. Our briefing was interupted by the news of a fire at a nearby hotel. We had to dash over and stop people crossing the tape securing the disaster area. Our next role was to be security guards, collecting large ampounts of money from various businesses. This was followed by the longest wait, which was to be a firefighter. This was a hoot, going the the fire scene in a miniture fire engine. We are got to hose the fire out at the scene of the fire. Our last role was to be paramedics, where we returned to the fire scene to attend the wounded and burnt victims. Again we arrive at the scene in a miniture ambulance. It really was a fun evening. You do have to throw yourself into the role playing to get the most out of it. I'm already planning to visit again with friend when they hold another adults evening. It was a hoot!

    This is a gorgeous little cafe/florist/soft play area…read more Upstairs half the shop is a florist, the other half a café, the downstairs is completely turned into a children's paradise! The coffee and food are decently priced and home made. The staff is lovely. The atmosphere is nice but as someone who suffers from allergies, the upstairs area with all its flowers is a bit too heady for me. Downstairs (with gates both at the top and bottom of the stairs and staff that will help you carry buggies) there's a large soft play area with slides, a swing, a climbing wall, a ball pit and a plethora of toys. There's also a little play house, a large wall painted with blackboard paint with chalks at the ready. On the far side there's a book shelf and reading corner as well as a sensory room fully darkened with just a few colour changing light sources. Absolutely love this place and £5 entry for children is very reasonable for hours of fun!

    great place - especially for kids ;) the cafe is combined…read morewith a beautiful flower corner and a HUGE soft-play area in the basement! the food looks awesome - had no chance to give it a try because of my busy soft-play monster... they have a cozy chill out zone for adults to watch the kids (you can also order food/ drinks downstairs). they offer also a big blackboard to draw/write on, motorcycles, quiet/relaxing area, books and a cool toy house. you can also give lunch to your child - at least 3 high chairs available. even babies will be totally busy (; bathroom was clean. small price (£5) for unlimited FUN! my little one would give two thumbs up! maybe three ... if there would be another one ;) also available for birthday parties & co.
