Uproar! Play Barn — Attraction in Doncaster

We went here with our 4 year old on a Wednesday, accidentally in half term. Booked online which I'm glad we did as the board outside said our time slot was full when we got there.... that's when I remembered it was half term 😂 It was super busy but the staff got us checked in and got our wristbands on smoothly. Once we were allowed in, it was a mad scramble for tables but we were lucky and got one that someone else was leaving. I didn't realise just how big it was...it goes so far back. There were loads to keep kids interested and our 4 year old had so much fun playing on the soft play, doing the interactive colouring, playing on the target shooter things and going down the rubber ring slide. He was mesmerised by the animatronic dinosaurs.

I understand there was a SEN session - that's fine. What isn't fine is taking an order for refreshments and then telling us we cannot enter soft play.

This review is based solely off that experience as I cannot comment on the...

Fantastic play centre both children (aged 6 and 2 ½) had lots of fun. Plenty to do and absolutely loved the dinosaur theme. You can see the children from most of the seated areas in the play area. The only downside was the cleanliness in the seated areas - lots of food and drink stuff left on the tables that weren't cleared ready for the next group of people due in.
