Been to the Wacky Warehouse for a birthday treat Ashley has been a fantastic help she has kept the kids busy and tended to all our needs and deserves recognition for it. Food was great would definitely come again. Thanks Ashley.

Service was great, food good. We were in the kids bit and the young lady serving (Ashley) was fab with the kids. We were visiting from Bradford but will definitely be back.

Had a lovely time!! Workers are super friendly and take care of the kids phenomenally! Lots of singing and dancing and the kids have a blast. Claw machine, glowing ride on pony?! A large playplace for the kids to dissapear into while I drink my free refill tea’s!! 11/10 I visit weekly it’s so good!

Breakfast with santa has now become a christmas eve tradition for us at the chestnut tree. It gets us all in the christmas spirit and sets us up for our day. The staff are all amazing, enthusiastic and the elf outfits are brilliant. Very well organised despite how busy it is and lovely food. We will be returning next year :)

Had my daughter’s party here and it was brilliant. Extremely good value for money. We come every week with my little ones and they love it. The staff are great, especially Emma! Great menu with table service and can definitely recommend the coffee and cake offer!
