Family friendly entertainment in Croydon

“I've used Max and attended various Hoopstar events over the years. They bring something unique every time and it's great to see entertainers who go the extra mile to keep things fresh and creative. If you've got little ones who need a smile and to be kept busy for a few hours, check out their website to see the variety of shows they put on. There's something for everyone!”

“Goodness me!!! My team and I were there and it was challenging to solve the problems. My favourite was tracking the combination numbers. I listened My team's secret codes and I did it, 3 things. I am very proud of myself! Woohoo! You would love it all!”

“Great deals on hasbro figures. Great toy shop full stop.”

“This place is a dream! Massive soft play center! My now 6 year old and 2 year old had an amazing time. They have a toddler section up to 5 years old and then the main play area for the bigger kids. Then they have electric quad bikes, a rock wall , and a place to eat. The slot is 2 hours which is a perfect amount of time to get you and the little ones worn out! Tip : its advised to wear shoes in the main play area, the wood and rope really hurt your feet :)”

“We really enjoyed our stay at Leonardo. We booked a double room and paid on arrival, we were then told that we had a free upgrade to a king-size room which was a wonderful surprise and very much appreciated! The rooms are clean, light, and great-sized. The bathroom has a shower and a bath, with a lovely illuminated mirror. We had water and biscuits provided every day during our stay and a working fridge which can be used. There is a bar and restaurant which we didn't use but was always busy which is a good sign, and there is a small shop with snacks and drinks should you require anything. The hotel is situated a 5 min walk from Croydon East station, and takes about 30 minutes to get into London, making it a good base in my opinion. Equally, Croydon centre is a 5 minute walk and there is an array of places to eat and drink nearby. Would stay here again and would recommend.”

“Great location with on site park convenient for when your taking your kids to the cinema or going with someone else lots of different food shop to pick for with entertainment for the whole family to enjoy for all ages very comfortable seats that recline with even a take to put your snacks.”

“The best fostering Agency .”

“The staff are very friendly and they provide brilliant customer service. Lots of activities for the kids and a great fun day out. Will recommend all kids especially those kids that are full of energy.”

“This place was amazing with lots of games and fun stuff. I mean you can never get bored in a place like that. There’s always something to keep you busy both adults and children. I had great fun bowling which happened to be my first time.”

“Had to book two rooms last minute due to finding our AirBnB room was absolutely disgusting, having travelled down for a family funeral. Leah from reception was great, really helpful and accommodating, fitting us in and sorting requests for extra towels, blankets and a heater. On the whole, customer service has been brilliant. Can't fault the team (only two visible members of staff - working very hard). Credit to the chain and their hotel. Cant thank them enough”

“A brilliant nursery!”

“My sons have attend the nursery one is shy and the other very lively and not so shy! The nursery has been really good in teaching and using creativity. My son is always bring home drawings and creations and loves seeing them at home. He really loved a counting book that nursery made that he brought home. Really helped with his counting. Staff are friendly and responsive to parents questions.”

“I had my cat reside at this lovely home from home cat hotel for the first time recently. I was apprehensive about how he might cope, never having been away before. I need not have worried. Sarah gives a wonderful caring service, and clearly loves looking after cats and thinks of it as a privilege! Max settled easily, and was slways so relaxed when I popped in. Regular updates were provided and great photos attached. It is obvious that the cats who stay at Dulverton get the 5 star treatment, and health and cleanliness are attended to. The cat hotel is very spotlessly clean, and warm and comfortable.... I would highly recommend this establishment for any cat.”

“Fantastic quality meals, friendly staff at an affordable price. I come here for a bang up full English breakfast and a quick lunch.”

“Loved the atmosphere of the restaurant! Pizza was cooked in the right temperature and indeed delicious. They offer great selection of wine and the staff are very courteous and friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant.”

“I was impressed about the quality of the dishes and the atmosphere. I saw reviews about the music being too loud or but there was nothing like that when we got there. We had tripe soup, turkey soup, chicken with polenta, pizza, and papanași and I can say all of them were amazing. Would definitely go again.”

“Saw a live band (Junkyard Choir) here. The pub is lovely and staff were super helpful and attentive. We never waited long to get served even though it was busy.”

“We celebrated my daughter's birthday at Priscilla's Cafe yesterday. I couldn't praise the staff more: from Stacey's responsiveness during the weeks prior to the actual date, to Lynn's helpfulness on the day, and absolute friendliness from both, they were brilliant! Thanks for helping us organising a great birthday party!”

“Friendly and accommodating staff allways, great atmosphere during the world cup and the food is decent”

“Croydon's best-kept secret. Emma and her staff make this traditional Victorian street-corner boozer a hugely welcoming place to come. The front bar is tailor-made for conversation but there's a few nooks and crannies if you just fancy a quiet drink. The beer garden may be under the flyover but it's well-maintained and comes into its own in the summer. The best pint of London Pride for many miles and high-quality Italian-style pub grub too. Go on, you know you want to.”

“Brilliant night seeing the Bohemian fantastic band.”

“My son joined Little Apples at 14 months old and quickly settled in, largely down to the friendly and caring staff. Each morning we are greeted with a warm smile and each afternoon at pick up we are told what he did that day and what his response was to that activity. Throughout the day we can see what he is up to using the Blossoms app, where his general progress is recorded and well as developmental milestone tracking and praise. We genuinely feel relaxed when our son is at Little Apples and therefore made the easy decision to enrol our youngest child there too (he starts in a few months). We feel very lucky to have found such a great nursery for our boys; knowing we can go to work and have peace of mind that they are having fun, learning and kept safe.”

“Went here with my nephew for dinner he had the seabass very nice. I had the lamb chops they were tender and succulent also the wings had a great taste definitely recommend.”

“Happened to pop in during happy hour today. The cocktails were delicious, and the staff were friendly and really helpful! We were excited about the new menu, so ordered jerk chicken and a side of fried plantain. The food was absolutely amazing and we’ll definitely be going back. Highly recommend!”

“Absolutely love this place! 3 mx tracks from kids first time, juniors track and adults mx! They also have a go kart track which ALLOWS mini bikes (doesn't have to be race spec) To top it off bring your own or hire go karts and even hire mini bikes with private tuition As you can see in the photos they extended the track for the THIRD time 13/09/21 it just keep getting better! Oh! They also fixed the joints from the old resurface.”

“I was thoroughly impressed with the facilities. The park is well maintained and has a wide variety of activities to keep the whole family entertained. The playgrounds are spacious, with plenty of room for kids to run around and explore, while the picnic areas are the perfect spot to relax and have a bite to eat. All in all, Ashburton Park is a great place to spend time with family and friends. Highly recommended!”
