Mini me is such a great place to visit with mom friends! Delicious food, coffee and really love free fruits for kids! Also, we organised a birthday party in there and it was just perfect. Friendly staff, always felt our needs is a priority and nothing is a trouble. We love coming back here every few months!

One of the best role play centres I have taken my children! We have been so many times and we love it, theres so much for them to do and explore whist I sit close by enjoying a good coffee and cake from the cafe. And what I love most is how clean everything is!

We came to Mini Me for our preschool graduation ceremony and they have been so amazing since our initial contact. Nothing was too much and we are able to come up with a fantastic party of all of our children. The place is beautifully decorated with an excellent variety of toys and things for the children to play with. The staff were on top of cleanliness and resetting the room as our children were eating ready for them to continue exploring once they had finished. All of our staff, children and parents has a fantastic time and I guarantee we will be back again to play or hold another event there. Thank you so much to Helen and the team for your help and support and hosting such a wonderful event for our families. We are very grateful and cant wait to return.

A lovely little cute cosy place for little ones to use their imagination and role play. A nice open space where you can keep an eye on little one and have a catch up with mums too. Price was £7.50 per child for 90mins play, £2 per adult for entry. (Not sure we should also have to pay as we are not playing though ) The venue was really clean and tidy, great role play for the kids. You have to take your shoes off at the front gate which i guess reassured us. Lots of sections to play from salon, vets, tent, builders, kitchen, a soft play area for babies and book corner too. Good & reasonably priced drinks & refreshments. I think this is a family run place, the service was really friendly. Would highly recommend and will definitely be coming back. There is 3 hours free parking at the Retail park (tk maxx, back of Aldi) and mini me is less than 5 mins walk away. Only downside is at end of session, there is a scramble for seats to put shoes back on to exit. So could do with more seats and coat racks.

I highly recommend Mini Me! Helen and all the staff are really lovely, supportive and welcoming. I have celebrated my daughter's birthtday twice (when she was 4 and 5) there and I could not think of a better place for doing her birthday.

My 3 year old son has loved coming to Mini Me since it first opened, it is such a great role play centre that allows him to get into character and have so much fun! I also love that there is a STEM laboratory, this is the first place where I’ve seen one set up. The staff members are so friendly and lovely, they are interactive with the children and make them feel welcomed. The seating area allows me to sit an enjoy a hot drink and yummy cake while being able to see my son playing. The venue is also very clean and there are always new toys popping up whenever we visit, you can tell that a lot of care has been put into running Mini me! I’m so glad that this has opened up so locally to me and I would highly recommend it.
