"This colorful indoor climbing frame for 6-month to 11-year-olds is part of the Talacre Sports and Community Center, and just a short walk from the Kentish Town West station. If you want to bring your really little ones to play, a good time is between 9-10:30am on weekdays for the "Under 5 Only" session. "

It's quite a nice place to go, the soft play area at first looks small, but has 3 levels and it actually varies and has lots of different fun climbing/ sliding options. Their baby gym sessions are really fun as well which takes place once or twice a week. The staff also seem to be very kind and helpful as well, which is a huge point for me.

Really lovely staff and the climbing facilities are brilliant. Good toilet facilities also.The centre is let down by the areas for parents to wait as there is a real lack of seating and space for keeping costs/jumpers. This is a real shame as otherwise I'd give this five stars instead of 3

Came for the Treetops climbing gym. Very depressing and dark area with dust on the floor in between the matts, spiders webs above and dust caked on top of the tunnel. Rough surfaces hurt my feet when walking around and I’m an adult with thicker skin. Not worth £7

The soft play here is excellent. It’s three stories with many slides, a ball pit and a ropes course up at the top. I love taking my toddler here. Don’t forget socks for you and your child but if you do, they have some for sale. My toddler still needs help getting over a lot of the barriers so she’s still too small to explore independently like the bigger kids. I can’t share any photos as I didn’t take any because of other kids being there but it looks exactly like what you see in google. The gymnastics going on the gym behind us looked amazing too

It’s ok. Wouldn’t advise for non-walkers. I think the most fun would be had by children around 2 and up, as there is no designated ‘sensory’ area for babies or crawlers. The cost for non-members is £7.05 for 1 hour. There was no food or drink on offer at all, and the vending machines were both out of order. The swinging main doors were out of order and so had to be wrenched open with fingers. As I made my way around with my 15 month old, I saw dust bunnies and mouse traps through the rope barriers- but children couldn’t get to them. Some of the soft flooring has gaps in it or gaffa tape to fix.

Went to Treetops on a warm rainy day. The surfaces felt grubby, sticky and unclean. There is no proper area for under 2s to play in without the risk of being trampled on by a bigger kid. The staff, however, are very friendly, accommodating & personable.

I kinda wish this were my council community center. Friendly staff, and they didn't charge me a deposit to rent a badminton racket when I realised I had shown up with no cash. Lockers are unlocked by a token you get from the front desk, and this frees a key-wristband that you can keep with you while you sweat off some of that Sunday roast. Clean locker room, massive facilities for football, gymnastics, badminton, etc, I'll definitely be back! Close to buses and the Tube as well.

Treetops is one of the best soft play places I've see. I'm fortunate to live nearby. My child loves it. The prices are reasonable for the soft play and the snack bar as well. The only negatives are that they don't always enforce the no camera rule and it can sometimes get really crowded. Still five stars however.
