Staff here are always friendly and helpful, good selection of hot and cold food, although I didn't see if they did a children's menu. They have 1 highchair in the cafe, sometimes it's hard to find a place to put it as it can get quite busy at lunchtime when all the students and university staff arrive! The baby changing area is in the disabled toilet next to the cinema at the back of the centre. I found it to be clean and adequate, plenty of space for a pushchair and the mat had ample room for baby and changing bag. The shop has lots of pocket money priced items as well as slightly more expensive toys/gadgets/games/etc. Well worth a look and a good way to kill an hour or two in the afternoon!

I couldn't seem to locate the baby changing facilities when we visited at the weekend although next to the women's toilets is a changing room for dance classes etc which has long benches which you can put your own changing mat on and is perfectly aqeuate.

Still it is a great place to go for a snack and toddlers never seem to get in your way because it is such a spacious facility.

They often have things on in the theatre for young ones e.g sooty and sweep show etc, showings of children's films etc. Staff are always very friendly.

Great arts centre housing different facilities, e.g concert hall, theatre, cinema, dance rooms and studios with lots of open space.

Also has cafe with lots of yummy food and great cakes (although quite expensive)

I always see lots of parents wandering around with their toddlers and babies in prams (lots of room for prams downstairs) and i saw a mother breastfeeding happily in cafe area and no-one batted an eyelid which is great.
