Can anyone confirm the rumour that zoomaround in stoke newington has closed down? I am devastated if this is so.

Pirates playhouse is much better imo.

I turned up last week and it wasn't open. No sign or anything, I presumed it was just shut for the day or the person opening was late? Cue hysterical children! I hope it's not shut, it's a bit of a Stokey institution.

I'm the same, I'm too scared to go there with child in case it is closed ...

Nanny friend took my kids and her kids last week - think it was Tuesday 2nd and it was closed -I assumed it had closed down but maybe it was just closed for the day and we turned up same day as glamourbadger?

It was a breath of fresh air when it started so shame it's gone.

I remember going there once, one couple smuggled their cans of tennents extra in as they encouraged their child to go and play nicely

agree PP "nicer" but can only just about bear it in the mornings

Sometimes I think drinking is the only way to not go crazy at soft play!

But seriously???

Not heard any rumours but I have taken to ringing before now to check they are open as they have. on occassion, randomly closed if it is a sunny day and they don't expect any punters.

Kind of a vicious circle as people won't show if it is haphazard.

fyi - there is also softplay at the sobell centre - cleaner that z or pp but no cafe just an area with vending machine.

someone else told me it was closed last week, but nothing on the website - anyone else know? yikes!
