I use to work here before the new owners took over and it was a good place to wrok then and then the new owners took over and it was the same. and i never recall me washing used straws one bit. if you wanna go to playzone or wackys go, they wont stop you, just dont slag the place off cause Louise has worked hard doing the place up :) and the toilets are spotless, i cleaned them lol

I have been reading some of the comment's on here and some of which ive read are DISCUTING, obviously word of mouth from a compitition :/ , i am a regular at world of play and for all the years i have been taking my three children there i have NEVER had any problems what so ever , they never wash their straws as i have always been offered to help my self from a newly opened pack of them and when i notice them cleaning they always throw the used straws and slush puppie containers IN THE BIN, The staff are always polite and helpful even when really busy. My three children always have such an amazing time there it's cheap and well worth the money. id'e advide it to anyone :)

That last post is rubbish. I've been many times to world of play and always found the staff to be full of fun and helpful. It's clean and bright with a good selection of food. Maybe it's not from a genuine customer but a rival!

I've visited World of Play several times and always enjoyed it there. My kids have always had a great time. The staff are friendly and the food is good. Facilities are clean and all areas bright. I've booked a party there for my son and my friends who have booked there before have said their kids absolutely loved the parties. Absolutely recommended.

I have only been here once, and I will not be returning! 3 words: dirty....dingy....dismal! Normally we go to Playzone but they were maxed out last Saturday so thought I would take my 3 kids to World of Play...NEVER AGAIN! Yes it may be cheaper, but i would rather spend the extra couple of quid in Playzone anyday!

I have been to world of play many times and it is wicked I love the slides and the small competions they do. I also love the trampolines they are awsome. I have been to loads of little miss beauty parties and I loved them. Its really fun and the staff are really child friendly. The good thing is they have something for children of all ages

I have a funny feeling people are slagging Wacky's off in favour of World of Play because of a mis placed jealousy. Leather Sofa's - now where would you have got that idea from with matching coffee tables - Wacky's had them from when they opened. I have been going there since it opened and I think the staff are very well trained and polite. The actually play games with the kids on the slides if it's not too packed out. They do arts and crafts after school as well. At the end of the day there are enough kids around to fill thr three play places so lets cut out the rubbish being said about Wacky's. It's only been open about 9 months give it a chance.

Amazing!Really clean and toilets always sparkling. My children thouroughly enjoyed themselves. So much variety for them. Since new owners, have taken over the place has improved so much! Excellent food and really cheap! Brill offers too! Staff our really friendly and great with children, i recently visited wackys with my son and daughter, and was shocked and disappointed with rudeness of staff. World of play is now my regular tuesday evening outting! Really want to try out one of their parties!

dirty and smelly and since new owners taken over it has become run down. my son is only 4 and boys about the age of 12 were running like animals with noone monitoring the situation. i appreciate it is not supervised but surely it is dangerous to allow this. i too saw staff washing staws. i have visited wackys which is great sorry world of play but i will not return

I take my Grandsons there regularly and they thoroughly enjoy themselves! I have read some of the comments left on this page and I cannot understand how anyone in their right mind can make a claim that they have seen staff wash "STRAWS"! There must be an underlying reason for such a preposterous claim! And to
Hayley who complains about the Child supervision..there is a sign advising Parents that Children's supervision is the responsibility
of the accompanying adult! For the entrance price and food prices,the Play area and last but not least the "Very Friendly Staff" I would recommend the World of Play to anyone! And to those who make ridiculous claims I hope you realise that sensible people can read between the lines!

In reply to the last post, let me say that we buy boxes of 500 straws for less than 2 pounds. It's ridiculous to think that we would wash plastic straws to use again! What utter rubbish. All our catering staff are trained on food hygiene and safety and would not do such a thing.
As far as the sofas are concerned, they are brand new leather sofas, purchased for the use of our customers and are temporarily stored at the rear of the building. We are awaiting delivery of matching coffee tables to go with them before putting them out.
Maybe Rosemarie has a grudge to bear against us, I don't know? We have many hundreds of regular, satisfied customers.

my son loved it but i did find the supervision by staff was'nt up to scratch and my friends boy was found with a small piece of metal in his mouth when it was mentioned there was not even an apology which i was disgusted by but on a good point it is great for kids as long as you watch them yourself.

I found this a great place to be! Since its been up new management it has improved by miles! There is a much larger food menu, which has something to suit anyone. My kids throughly enjoyed being here, the new toddler area is great, with staff checking every now and again to ensure theres no older children, and to ensure the safety of the children. My daughter also had her 'Little Miss Popstar' party here and she enjoyed profoundly! The staff were very friendly, and easy to talk to, there is plenty of them so they're easy to find. The party bags from the party are very professional and the dvd is a great keepsake. There are always things going on, I and my kids went to the pirates party, which was packed with games and face painting.The toilets and changing facilities were sparkling clean. I will definetely be taking my kids back here, its a great place to be!

I think I must have been in a different place. I found it dark, dingy, and dirty. surpervision is abysmal.The toddler area is very dark and hard to access. I found Wacky's Ltd by accident on the way home. What a difference. Bright, colourful and lots of supervision. Lovely open accessed toddler area. Lovely baby changing area. Fabulous staff. It's new you need to check it out.
