Tarted the front up, side and rear an eyesore with rotting rusty metal, also seen staff doing a photoshoot while they kicked away the litter out front into road. Have a tidy up and respect the area where people live and you will get more custom

In one word: Unhygienic This is for kids play area, it should be kept clean.. There were moulds on the soft balls place.. There was Dust everywhere in the whole play area.. Spider webs in many places.. Very small play area to bring with.. £9 is never the worth.. 2 stars only for having 4 trampoline as it helps many kids at the same time..

Its a great place and stop by for kids. I have been there couple of times and good for the location. The beach is right there, so a whole dayout is at the place. Kids love and food is nice. Good space for parents to have relaxed sit down. Slightly expensive for some items though. Car Parking is the best as you get ample space right next between The Stack and Go Bananas.

Brought my 6year old and 6month old. Was asked if baby would be playing which i replied 'if there are some toy his age, we might get him out the pram to play with them' Was charged £5 for him to do so. After sitting down and getting some toys, found they never worked and half were broken. Would also avoid paying out for a cuppa. My 6 year old did enjoy the trampolines and the small softplay they had for bigger kids but didn't take long to play on. everything.

First time I have been to Go Bananas and it was great!! It was quiet when we arrived at 5pm so my 1 year old had a great time. I would not take a toddler under 2 when its busy as it would be difficult to supervise as adults cant enter the main play area
