4. Party Bookings

The following terms apply to private party bookings, in addition to the general booking terms above.

  • Parties must be booked at least three weeks in advance. This gives us time to prepare the space, food and party bags.
  • A party booking gives you exclusive use of the play space for the duration shown on your chosen package. The cafe is closed to other customers for that period.
  • A deposit of 25% of the total party price is payable at the time of booking. Your date and time are not held until the deposit has been paid.

  • If the balance has not been paid by the due date, we may cancel the booking and release the date to other customers. The deposit is not refunded in these circumstances.
  • Each package covers a maximum number of children, shown on the package. Where a package allows additional children, they are charged at the per-child rate shown at the time of booking.
  • Please tell us about any allergies or dietary requirements when booking. We aim to accommodate them but cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment, as set out in section 6 below.
  • Requests to change the date or time of a party are subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed. Please contact us as early as possible.
