This place is absolutely amazing for children. My daughter loves it here. The different spaces from the bouncy castle, messy play to the sensory room my daughter loves it all. As soon as you walk in you're made to feel welcome and are instantly put at ease. Messy pups is such an inviting and clean environment for children play and learn. We had my daughts 2nd birthday party here from the decorations to the food everything was flawless, completely took all the stress away, only had to get a cake and turn up was great. Thank you so much for everything you do

I have been visiting messy pups play cafe for 3 years now, from when my daughter was 8 weeks to having my son 7 months ago, and I have always been so pleased with the overall experience! The owner Claire is always so welcoming and friendly and goes above and beyond to ensure everyone's needs are met and all have a great time while there. There are different areas of play, from a messy play corner, role play, dress up and a beautiful sensory room, meaning each child's developmental needs are met. I shall be sure to keep visiting for many more play sessions especially now with a new baby, who absolutely loves the sensory room . Thank you Claire for all the hard work you put into each day as I know this work is purely done solo by you! xx

5 all the way with messy pup play cafe it’s a great place to take your little ones as a professional nanny this is one of the most places I’ll always come back to as the children love it ! Claire is amazing too she makes the best cheese and ham tosties as well as coffee ! Which sometimes can be much needed ! We gone to many special events at messy pups too where Claire goes above and beyond with lots of activities, character dress up and hiring outside business such as the animal man (can’t remember the name) for the kids to have a brilliant time also a great place to wear the kids out with the climbing space and bouncy castle! It really has everything there ! Highly recommend going for a fun session at messy pups ! Also a great way for social networking for adults too !

I’ve taken my 2 year old daughter here a handful of times now and she loves it. The toddler area and the sensory room are both great for her. I’ve also had some of the owners fresh, home made food options and they’re tasty and good value for money. I’ve told a number of my mum friends about this place as I highly recommend. Staff are friendly and the place is always clean. Already looking forward to our next visit soon :-)

We took our daughter to Messy Pups for the first time when she was only a baby and we felt very welcomed & relaxed. The cafe is well presented and one of the cleanest play areas we have been too. The Cafe is very colourful and inviting. It has such a calming atmosphere which really helped our little one as she can get quite overwhelmed at times. We have been several times now for play dates and parties. We held our daughter’s first birthday here and wow the decor was absolutely stunning and more than we could’ve asked for. With all the little snacks and props. They just go out the way to make sure you are happy and enjoy your time with them. We cannot recommend this company enough and we can’t wait to have more play dates and future parties with you. Thank-you again for being a big part of our daughter’s first birthday and making special memories for her to look back on
