"Absolutely the best!! Went to the Sheffield location about a year ago and we had fun there too. The Biddulph location has different attractions and some the same! Love that it’s 1 price and play as long as you want. Parents don’t have to pay as long as you have paid for a child. They even have affordable snacks and drinks. Thinking of doing the monthly pass since it’s close to home and with winter coming this is a great place to let out some energy. The staff can be seen walking around every hour I noticed wiping down equipment and toys. There are so many different attractions. I HIGHLY RECOMM"
