The best venue for kids birthday parties! We had booked their auditorium for our daughters first birthday party and the whole process from start to finish was seemless. We dealt with Taarn initially for the booking etc and on the day, Jing was at the reception. They were both so accommodating and great! Couldn't recommend them enough. Thw space itself is large so we were able to fit a big bouncy castle and the kids had ample play area ro run and use their ride ons. Comes with tables, chairs, kitchen - everything you need.

Great staff at reception. Excellent interiors, very nice auditorium. Parking & entrance a bit disturbed due to recent road closure & diversion. Lovely art & gallery too. Very happy to see such a nice community centre.
