Great for older kids and teens; less of a toddler outing, more a grown-up family hangout.
The long read worth saving for nap time
What’s it actually like?
DEN 97 Farnham sounds more like a smart social venue than a classic kids’ attraction: a modern indoor spot with interactive darts, shuffleboard, board games, drinks and food. The reviews are all from adults, but the setup clearly leans towards a family-friendly evening out for older children rather than little ones. The big plus is the amount of stuff to do. Parents and groups mention loads of games, a good atmosphere, friendly staff and food that arrives hot and quickly. Several reviewers also liked the drinks range and said the prices were reasonable, which is always a pleasant surprise in this sort of place. What’s less clear is how well it works for younger children, and there’s nothing in the reviews about baby facilities, prams or a dedicated kids’ area. It looks ideal for tweens, teens and mixed-age family groups with older children, but probably not somewhere to take a toddler and expect them to be entertained for long.
