Memories made, with ease
Our soft play cafe venue at Loughborough Leisure Centre is the perfect place to host your kid's party. Available with or without food and options for a giant cookie instead of a birthday cake, we take care of the organising so you can stand back with your flat white and watch the memories being made.
FACILITY
Our soft play party facility is located at Loughborough Leisure Centre on Browns Lane (LE11 3HE). Parking is available for £0.50 for 2 hours when selecting ‘Leisure Centre Users’ on the payment machine or by buying a ticket from reception. You can pay for more than 2 hours at reception (card only).
By booking a Bom Bom party you will have access to the on-site soft play, and be able to utilise the Bom Bom cafe area in front of the soft play for party set-up, any food arrangements, and to host parents and carers.
The soft play facility has a maximum capacity of 27 children (this cannot be relaxed due to health and safety regulations), up to a maximum age of 12 years old. The Bom Bom cafe will be fully open to the party and the public from Monday to Saturday, but not open on Sundays, which means we cannot provide food for Sunday bookings. You are welcome to bring your own food for a Sunday party.

We offer a range of time slots across the week as follows:

Extras
We can provide special celebration treat as follows:
- Giant classic cookie with custom message plaque (feeds 5-10): £22
Whilst we do not currently provide celebration cakes, please enquire if you would like something extra such as a tray of brownies, rocky road or bulk load of cookies and we will include this in your quotation.
Bookings & Cancellations
Payment
Once availability for the date you require has been confirmed, we will send an invoice for the booking fee for the soft play. Payment of this fee will secure your booking.
If food is also required, we will await confirmation of numbers and provide an invoice for the food only at a later date.
When booking food, the remaining balance for the food provision (together with any dietary requirement information) must be paid at least 5 days prior to the party, when the final attendee numbers must be confirmed.
Booking Priority
In the interests of fairness, if payment is not received within 48 h (2 days) of being offered a particular date then we will consider that you do not want to go ahead with the booking, and will make the date available to others once again. If the 48 hours has passed, please contact us again to check if the date is still available before making payment.
Cancellation Policy
We understand that occasionally plans change and you may need to cancel your booking. A full refund of the hire fee will be issued up to 21 days prior to your party. Because we will be unable to re-book the slot in such a short time span, if you need to cancel within 21 days of the event date, we will be unable to issue a refund.
