The 20 Best Children's entertainment in Wilmslow

“Titfield Thunderbolt Matinee - fantastic show - exceptionally professional -just a plea for air con. we were melting!”

“My son went to this nursery from 9 months old until he left for school in September. All the staff are so caring and loving, like a family away from home - three of his key persons particularly standout, Katie G who was his first in Bunnies and supported his transition into nursery life, Jess for support with his speech and language while he was in Fox Cubs and Malaika while he was in Owls for nurturing his curiosity through her experiments. His first parents evening at primary school was full of positives and he is hitting or exceeding all his targets, part of this is the play and experiences he had while being at Footsteps! Thanks from a proud Daddy!”

“Warm, friendly and helpful staff. Great venue, kids and adults all had a nice time. Very relaxed environment and good seating in view of your kids”

“I went to the cinema to watch a live National Theatre Production. The cinema was very organised. I went straight to the screen and waited for the show. As it was live, everyone made it to their seat before the start. The performance was excellent and I will be returning to watch another show. Living in Manchester I’m not going to travel to London for these shows. What a great opportunity to see real theatre. I loved it.”

“Kudos to the customer assistant, just been for my collection, I arrived close to the end of day, they were full of energy and responded very well to my haste!”

“Amazing place if you have toddlers! Great staff, friendly environment and well thought out appropriate menu”

“excellent Stage school, the team are fantastic with the kids and the shows are brilliant.”

“I’m not a great fan of Cheshire East Council, some of their services are really poor. However Oakenclough Family Hub is excellent. It is a really outstanding facility for children. The stay & play, sensory room, toy library and cafe are absolutely outstanding. The building is modern and well thought out and the staff are absolutely wonderful. Why haven’t all councils got facilities like Oakenclough ? Well done Cheshire East.”

“We visited Baby Loves after seeing great recommendations a few months into our pregnancy and placed an order of the Bugaboo Donkey 5. The customer service throughout and since has been incredible from the owners taking their time to respond to emails whilst away on their honeymoon to being so accommodating with our girls being born early and having to reschedule things. We have been kept in contact with the whole process and all at Baby Loves have been so compassionate to our situation it’s made our journey that little bit easier. We cannot wait to put it to use with our little ladies. Thankyou again to all at Baby Loves, we highly recommend - Ryan, Holly, Florence & Willow”

“You don't like the ordinary do you? No so you want something that's visually demanding and unique. That's what you get at Parsonage it dies what it says on the tin. Ever-changing artist displays in an ambient environment 7 days a week with the chance to meet local artists as well and learn from them. And if you like the sound of clicking floorboards this is also the place to be. Fanfare the common man as Copland would say. Oh and did I mention the sapient Gardens outside? No? Well you've got thst as well - a place to reflect in peace.”

“Great NT place, visited lots of times but this time, as well as using the very good cafe, we walked through the estate onto the path by the runway. Saw lots of planes taking off and landing. The grandchildren loved it!! Family membership well worth it!”

“What a brilliant party we got when we booked Dazzle. From the moment he arrived he engaged with the party girl and all the family. Mega organised and friendly so the party went so smoothly and everyone (children and parents) were charmed and enthralled. Fantastic and subtle/ sensitive behaviour management of a room full of excited 5 and 6 year olds meant the pressure was off us as parents and we could watch and enjoy along with everyone else. Great inclusion of all but really made the birthday girl feel special. A consummate professional I would recommend to anyone! Thank you Dazzle!”

“Our little one had the time of his life and loved every minute of it. Even as parents we were impressed with the facilities/ quality of play equipment, they sell a wide range of food and lovely seating area by the cafe that has plenty of high chairs. The tables are spaced out to allow for pushchairs/buggies. They have a role play section with plenty of soft play equipment etc. for under 5’s. Our little one loved the different sensory areas. The whole place kept him entertained for hours! We visited a second time on the way home. We only wish we had one closer to us down south as we are based in Sussex.”

“We are Americans visiting Manchester for the holidays. The Didsbury Pub was recommended to us for dinner. We had dinner at The Didsbury Pub on Christmas Eve, and it was fantastic! Steven, our server, looked after us; he did a fantastic job. The Didsbury Pub had a Festive Menu on Christmas Eve and our compliments to the Chef. The food was delicious. The hand carved roast turkey with Yorkshire pudding was awesome. So was the Marmalade Glazed Ham Hock. And the desserts. The apple & blackberry crumble was scrumptious; as was the melting chocolate fondant. The pub is beautiful. The atmosphere was great. One of the best dining experiences in all our travels. Thank you to Steven, the Chef, and all the great people at The Didsbury Pub. I highly recommend everyone visiting Manchester to stop in and enjoy The Didsbury Pub.”

“Really wonderful place for kids. Friday last session 7 to 9 pm is only for 11 plus kids.”

“Took my children here yesterday, what a lovely experience! To start off Mel and Aliyah were lovely and welcoming! Had such a lovely chat with them. They were very kind and chatty with the kids too. The atmosphere is great and the kids love it. They enjoyed it so much we bought a monthly pass. Safe to say we will become regulars!!!”

“We booked the Christmas dinner for 3 on Christmas day. The staff were friendly and professional and went out of their way to help. The food was lovely and we were not rushed to receive the next course. All in all a great experience and we left with full tummies. It was my partners 60th birthday as well and the staff organised a sash and a birthday card finishing it all off nicely with a candle on a mince pie. Thank you to everyone. He had a lovely surprise.”

“Son lost his wallet here with all his Christmas money in. We didn’t have much hope it would be found but I reported it lost to the lovely Shanese. I left my details and within minutes she called to say she found it! She even ran outside to pass it on to my son. Shanese went above and beyond. We are so grateful for her. Happy new year!!!”

“Liz is an amazing therapist and gives me space and time to work through my thoughts and emotions each week. I cant recommend her enough and have no negatives at all!”

“A special thank you to iman - a polite, enthusiastic approach to helping me and my fiance Amelia in finding our first set of garden furniture for our NEW home ;) We will certainly be back.”

“Really helpful staff, decent stock levels. Nice and clean.”

“Had a lovely visit to the wacky warehouse yesterday with my two grandchildren. With a spot of lunch afterwards. Children had a brilliant time playing and the food was delicious especially the beef and Yorkshire puds. Staff was helpful too”
