“Last minute booking with family on a Christmas Day out, great time in the Fourth Samurai escape room and Spirit Jayna was a fab host! She explained all the rules clearly, was super friendly, supported our competition & more than happy to take plenty pictures for us afterwards!”

“This cafe is brilliant with great staff they serve good quality food too.”

“The Welcome In lives up to its name. As soon as you enter you are aware of the lively and friendly atmosphere. There is a buzz about the place and you are always greeted with a smile. Excellent coffee and homemade cakes make for a pleasant morning break.”

“I stayed at Vita St Albans during my placement in Leeds and had a really great experience. The team was incredibly welcoming, helpful, and always available. The building is modern, well-maintained, and in a great location. A big thank you to Jessie and the staff for making everything so easy and pleasant. Highly recommended to any student coming to Leeds!”

“Lovely place. My daughter attends the youth club here on a Tues night and for a pound they get juice and a snack and do different activities every week.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As Premium Inflatables, we're delighted to share our outstanding experience with Fairburn Community Centre in Knottingley (WF11). This venue is a perfect example of what a community space should be - expertly maintained, thoughtfully designed, and ideally suited for children's parties and family events. The hall itself is a standout feature. The space is generously proportioned, offering plenty of room for multiple party entertainment setups. We've found it perfect for accommodating various combinations of: - Full-sized bouncy castles - Inflatable slides - Complete soft play areas - Multiple inflatable games - Additional party space for seating and refreshments One of the venue's major advantages is its excellent off-street parking facility. Unlike many community venues where parking can be a challenge, this spacious car park makes arrivals and departures hassle-free for party guests and vendors alike. Parents particularly appreciate the convenience of not having to navigate street parking with excited children and party supplies. The cleanliness and maintenance of the facility deserve special mention. The hall is immaculately kept, with well-maintained floors and pristine facilities. This attention to detail not only makes our setup process smoother but also ensures a safe and hygienic environment for children's activities. From an equipment provider's perspective, the venue offers several practical benefits: - Easy access for loading and unloading - Excellent natural lighting - Good ventilation - Clean, level flooring ideal for inflatable setups - Well-maintained electrical outlets - Ample room for safe equipment spacing We at Premium Inflatables highly recommend Fairburn Community Centre for children's birthday celebrations and family events. The combination of generous space, excellent facilities, convenient parking, and outstanding maintenance makes it one of the best venue options in the Knottingley area. Whether you're planning a small birthday gathering or a larger family celebration, this venue provides everything needed for a successful event. It's clear that the management takes pride in maintaining this valuable community asset to the highest standards.”

“Attended a children's craft event, lots of fun & very helpful volunteers - well worth a visit”

“Pretty similar to any other theatre. No pros, no cons. However, there did actually seem to be enough toilets for the women for once!”

“28.11.25 - I collected the new number plates I had ordered today after someone had kindly pulled them off and left them on the road outside my house. A neighbour had glued them back on for me with "no nails" and they were cracked, so it was difficult for the young men who served me to use these old plates to measure up the new ones (and get the screws in the right place). I said they could glue them on if it was easier but they said no, they would try to screw them on first, as this makes them more secure. The store was really busy, with a constant queue (hence having to swap this job between them), but they remained calm, professional and helpful. I hope these two young men are being paid a decent wage, as they are a credit to Halfords. I will definitely go back to this store if I need help in future.”

“What a great little surprise. The manager was super helpful, and the place itself was exactly as a working men's club should be. I have never heard of the place before but will deffo remember it. Everyone should go. It's great and the beer is at the right price as it should be.”

“Went to a childrens birthday party, there was enough room for 3 bouncy castles and there was a room for them eat in. I would recommend it to anyone”

“Love this place it’s the place to be amazing staff and can go to them about anything ❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“We have an over 50's club every Monday morning. We have exercises,, games and tea and cake. Its a great place to get friends.”

“Our Sewing group meet here twice a month it's a very friendly inclusive place.”

“I visited this store on Fri 9th October 2026 to buy a birthday present for a very special person - my future Son in Law. 9th October 2025 was a very special day - it was Mental Health Day. As I stood in the queue at the checkout desk I spent time reading a notice stuck to the customer facing side of the til. That notice explained that if you are struggling to mention it to a staff member because their shop is a "safe place," and someone will help you! A massive thanks to the Leeds United Shop staff and Manager for making sure those who are struggling, for whatever reason, are given a space and a listening ear offering support. However you could maybe make your notice a little bit bigger. If I hadn't been waiting I wouldn't have been stood staring at the counter and seen it. Remember "it's good to talk"!”

“Really happy with how the nursery is now. The staff and management are so friendly and hardworking and the children love going in. Activities follow the children’s interests and they spend lots of time outside. Love all the updates on the app.”

“We had a training course here and the staff are helpful and you have free access to tea, coffee, biscuits etc which is great.”

“Lovely little community hall, we were there for our great granddaughters 5th birthday party”

“This place definitely needed some love, but has been bought recently and had a refresh which is great! Birthday party here has been great, food was still warm for the kids which you don't often get at soft play parties. Kids had a great time”
