Monkey Bizz

Monkey Bizz looks like a fairly classic indoor soft play venue, but one that seems to work especially well for birthday parties. Reviews mention decorated party rooms, a Harry Potter-themed room, attentive hosts and children being properly kept busy. There are areas for different ages, including a small section for babies and toddlers, so it is not just a tumble of older children in socks. Parents seem to like the cleanliness, the manageable size and the fact that it does not feel as if you need a map and a packed lunch just to find the toilets. There is food and drink on site, plus parking, and several reviewers said their children loved it. For families with more than one age group, that split between younger and older play areas is a real plus. The downside is the customer service can be patchy. One reviewer had a very rude reception experience, while others found staff friendly and helpful, so it may depend on who is on duty. It also sounds best when it is not busy, and there is no pricing info in the reviews, so value is hard to judge beyond the general impression that it does the job well.
