Our staff are around to help make your visit enjoyable and to assist in any way they can.

Because we want your children to enjoy their experience at Oaty and Joey’s,we will not tolerate abuse, anti-social or inappropriate behaviour or bad language at any time from adults or children. Our number one priority is to ensure the safety of all children.
We do not allow any food or drink which is not purchased from us to be consumed in the premises. We have an extensive menu covering a wide range of tastes for both adults and children of all ages, including healthy options. The profit from our food sales, enables us to offer lower entrance prices than most other soft play centres of this size. The only exception would be for baby food or special dietary needs due to medical reasons.
You may take photos of your children provided that you ensure only your children are in the photo. Video is not permitted except in your own private party room with the consent of the parents of other children.
You can stay as long as you wish BUT due to our capacity restrictions, you may be limited to 2 hours in the main Play Barn. You will be informed if this applies on entry.
Your party host will greet all your party guests and make sure that the Birthday child feels extra special.
They will also make announcements, play birthday music, serve your food, cut your cake if required and generally ensure the smooth running of your party so that your expectations are surpassed.
Unfortunately, once you have confirmed your party numbers, we cannot offer refunds.
We will always endeavour to meet your requirements, however, our busy kitchens handle a wide range of foods with many ingredients containing allergens. If your child has a severe allergy, please email us prior to booking in order for us to assess and discuss the situation with you.
Our adult snacking platter selections are very popular as a treat for your adult guests. Please see adult extras in the party booking section.
For logistical reasons all of our daytime parties are of 2 hours duration. One way of extending your party is to enjoy our open-barn facilities after your indoor party is over. It’s a great ending to any party. We have trampolines, race track, coin operated rides and games on offer. You may also wish to round off the day with a game of mini golf.
Exclusive use parties sometimes can be extended by 30 minute segments at a pro rata rate of the 2 hour base charge. Please phone for availability if you are interested in this.
Due to risk of injuries we do not allow Piñatas to be brought into the play barn. We do offer a safer, fun equivalent called a “Goodie Gusher”, please see party optional extras for details.
