What a lovely gem! I visited The Hang Out today with my two children who are 8 years old and 3 months old. They both had a brilliant time. The staff was very welcoming and there was a space for me to sit and have a coffee. I will be back as this is such a warm and creative place to bring the kids. Thanks!

Such a fantastic place.
Can't believe we only just found out about it!
So many things for the kids to do and a lovely homely space too.
I will be recommending this to everyone I know and we will definitely be back.
The ladies that work here and founded this are absolutely lovely.
Its a brilliant idea and so needed in our area.
I hope it continues to grow and get even more popular.
What a positive for our local community.
Thank you

We go nearly every week and absolutely love it. So relaxing, a calm space with no judgement. A warm welcome is received and so much to do. A huge variety of activities. The decor is lush and brings a peaceful vibe. It's our safe space to go to. No matter who you are, you're accepted with open arms. Would highly recommend. When you first go, you won't be able to stop going.

We had a great time this morning at The Hangout with my 8yo son and his friend. There is loads to do, toys, games, crafts and other activities and plenty of comfortable seating for the parents with a little cafe serving hot and cold drinks and snack items. The ladies running the venue were friendly and helpful and good with the kids, showing them what there was and helping them with changing the multi-game table. The kids had a great time building an enormous Magic Car track and playing various games. Will definitely be returning!
