Parents can be found covering in corners supping on quadruple espressos, rocking back and forth muttering something about the apocalypse and how nice it might be right about now. Oh please dear reader, please do not take this to be a negative review or indeed that I don't love spending time with my kids. Please just show this review to a parent and see if they begin nodding and a tear forms at the side of their eye (or both). It serves food. It has seats, it's a little rough around the edges, but that's never a complaint you'll here from a 3 year old as they whip through the place dressed as a princess on a Peppa Pig trike with chocolate stains around their mouth and devilment in their tiny little eyes.... the apocalypse could be nice right about now

This was out first visit, having been to Wonder World a good few times, but choosing to come here as it opens earlier. Comparing it to somewhere like like Wonder World is always going to be a tough gig, basically this place has it's pros and cons. Pros: - serves a good cuppa and at £1 for a large mug is cheap! - wide range of toys, from ride ons to trucks to giant dance mats for kids to play with on top of the soft play area - breakfast rolls looked good (I never tried one) but all are under £2 - lots of seating (& highchairs) including a few comfy if worn couches - staff are lovely Cons: - smells a bit damp (I feel a bit blurgh just writing that but I really put me off) - areas of the soft play are really quite worn out & in need of replacing - some of the toys need cleaned or binned! - there are signs everywhere in relation to food - they don't like you bringing your own food in, totally understand this when they sell food, but show me the parents of a small child who don't carry bribery snacks?? And when your child insists on eating that exact thing are you supposed to leave? All in all this place is pretty okay for the entry fee charged. I can't help but feel it could be improved quite easily though with a bit of care and attention.

There seem to be load of soft play places around Glasgow these days, but variety is always good…read more With it being kids' birthday party season this is the third one I've been to in as many weeks, I think. First off, it's huge - an old industrial unit. The ceiling may as well be the sky. Space is very well used with a couple of activities I've not seen in other play places - such as the stretched fabric space tent climbing activity. You have to see it to understand! The soft play area is a large U-shape surrounding an event area and small go-kart track, with one section set aside for the much smaller / toddler age range. Wall paintings are *staggering* and enormous. The decor goes all around the building, including the toilets (which are kept fairly clean - and it's good to see two baby-change units in the gent's loo). Party staff were great, very engaging and listened to the birthday boy's wishes and his cake was wheeled out by Woody from toy Story! Other staff were friendly and wandering around keeping an eye on things in general. Food prices are the usual escalated range you expect from these places - an adult burger with chips is around £7 and a kid's meal with a drink £4.25. Overall, impressed. If you're sitting in a seat waiting while the young ones work up a sweat, take a jumper. Especially first thing on a cold morning, it can get a little chilly.

In the famous words of R. Kelly's 'Ignition'... BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE…read moreBOUNCE The boyf and I came here for a bit of an unconventional date night activity, and we were not disappointed! We showed up on a Monday evening (was also a bank holiday) without having booked, and although the place was quite busy we had no trouble getting a 'flight time' and were on the trampolines about 10 mins after arrival. We took the subway and it's about a 5 minute walk from Kinning Park station, so very accessible and easy to find (if you just follow googlemaps...not sure we would've found it on our own haha) They make you sign a wee disclaimer form which is SO easy and conveniently done on a set of computers specially for that task. This is much quicker and simpler than writing all the info down! It costs a tenner for an hour's 'flight time,' but honestly I think that's enough! You can get a 2 hour pass but we were knackered after about 20 mins and had to take regular water and sit-down breaks. Make no mistake, this is sweaty, sweaty exercise! A couple of wee negatives bring it down to 4 stars- the lockers they have are pretty tiny, and I had my uni bag with me. I ended up having to just put my valuables there and leave my laptop and all my books in my bag on top of the lockers. Bit annoying! They went through a quick safety briefing which I tried to catch all of but the woman spoke pretty quickly, and used some terms which I didn't understand at first like 'gainers' (which is when you run into a flip I think? still not sure haha). Naturally the boyf was way too excited about getting on the trampolines and listened to none of the safety briefing, but they have wee referee people blowing whistles at you all the time if you break the rules. The selection of activities is quite extensive- there are normal trampolines, dodgeball, basketball, a HUGE foam pit with various platforms to jump off from, and punching bags which are incredibly high up, but if you can jump high enough you can climb onto them! The crowd that night was a mixture of kids and the odd unlucky parent who looked like they were having the worst time ever, a group of 'lads', some real professionals who were flipping and bouncing all over the place, and us! This place really made me think about how many inhibitions adults have! There I was watching little kids do running backflips into the foam pit, and I had to really, really psych myself up about doing a frontflip! Finally did it, as did boyf, and we were all proud of ourselves for having done a literal fraction of what these 3ft tall energizer bunnies were achieving. Both of us ended up with sore backs, and both of us had done it the same way- by stiffening up on one of our first landings and feeling a jolt all the way up our backs. So if there's one good bit of advice I can give- it's loosen up and try not to let your grownup 'but this is dangerous' voice take over! The more relaxed you are the less you're likely to get injured. Would love to come here with a big group of pals, and will definitely be back!

Well that was fun…read more Absolutely done my back in almost immediately, so didn't give it my all. All the more reason to go back. They have trampolines. Lots of them. More importantly, they have dodgeball! The super friendly staff even acted as refs. There's also a few basketball hoops (don't forget this all involves bouncing) and a foam pit with different ramps to jump from. All of this adds up to mega fun for kids and there's a lot of special events marketed for the young and fearless. But, that shouldn't put off adults, with or without kids. There's an obvious exercise angle to all of this, but at a tenner a go I suspect it will appeal to most people as 'a fun thing to do'. Some proper changing areas and more food options would be a treat, especially given the exercise aspect. There's only vending machines with the usual at the moment. Hard work, but fun. Give it a try.

As has already been said from as far back as 2015 ( so no hope of anything changing) the queues are just horrendous . Pre paid online for the tickets and still had to wait in a massive queue to obtain the vouchers for the rides. Noticed a staff member standing at the side who was actually scanning codes and giving out the vouchers. No formal line directing you toward him , just standing at side trying to get the queue down a bit with people approaching him and asking if he was giving out vouchers. While I expect to queue for the main /popular rides , this was on another level. After a full hour queuing for the Waltzer it was draining to realise nearly every ride was the same. The kids rides weren't much better. It was so crowded it was overwhelming and hot . We ended up frittering vouchers away on the stalls with no hope of winning anything just to use them up. We gave the remaining ones away . All food and drink was overpriced. £4-£5 for a single cone, £7.80 for x 3 kids Fruitshoots for example. This carnival has been running for years and it's hard to believe that a better operating system hasn't been introduced. It has everything there to make it fun and enjoyable and on a quieter day it probably is. Today it just felt as if the objective was more on getting as many bodies through the door as possible .

I liked one lioness/panther sculpture in particular that had been presented by a John S. Kennedy, not sure what the S stands for.

A number of critters were out in the greenery the few times I walked through in July 2019. The hotel where I was staying had a small parking lot that was first-come first-serve, so I did most of my exploring on foot.

Kit bags can be stored on the mum and dad benches right beside the track and I've always felt safe leaving my semi valuables in my bag there. Was particularly impressed tonight when a member of staff (Pete I think) challenged me to a shot in the foam pit. Me?!? Scary stuff! However I like to live by 'if it's not scary it's not fun' so I was game for a wee adrenaline buzz. Normally they would charge for personal tuition but this lovely man coached myself and two other adults into the pit. He even got a backflip out of one of us! Please give it a try if you're up for a laugh. BMX, scooters and skateboards can be rented from staff. Lessons can be booked if you feel really unsafe. You'll have a great time. Just remember a helmet - brains are important!
