    Good little gym. Love the cafe/shop area and has a good vibe. Doesn't get five stars because I felt it was one of the more expensive gyms I've been to but has a lot less on offer. Could do with some sort of chill-out/rest area in the bouldering area instead of having to use the cafe.

    Booked a party for my daughters 7th birthday. Absolutely fantastic time was had by her and her friends. The booking process was seamless, took all the stress out of planning and coordinating. The games and activities the kids experienced was made by the energy and enthusiasm of the staff. Food was great too and the plentiful - even the parents managed to get in on the last few slices of fresh baked pizza!

    My child enjoyed the group session - instructors were good. Cafe area is nice to chill out while you wait

    Friendly staff, good route setting but totally let down by the people who climb there. Experienced climbers who cut right across your route, shirtless bro climbers who congregate in big groups and a general sense that unless you are a very strong climber you aren't welcome. Such a shame as so much work goes on to make it a great place to climb, maybe a clear code of conduct would help turn things around?

    Friendly staff. The clientelle tend to be helpful and friendly too. Kids parties held upstairs with the traversing wall. Enough walls and routes to present interesting challenges. Regular route refreshes. Nice cafe.
