Kids playing at Let's Play

LESS SCREEN TIME,
MORE PLAY TIME.

Safe, clean and packed with adventure for little explorers. Meanwhile, parents can relax with freshly prepared burgers, desserts and a welcoming atmosphere that makes every visit feel effortless.

Play. Refuel. Relax.

Three reasons families come back week after week.

Why Phat Buns

More than soft play. A proper day out.

We built this  because we couldn't find a family venue we actually wanted to spend an afternoon in. So we made one - joined to the kitchen we love.

Thoughtfully designed

A play frame built for adventure - soft, safe and seriously fun across three levels.

Safe & spotless

Cleaned constantly. Padded everywhere. Staffed by people who actually love this stuff.

Food worth visiting for

Famous PHAT BUNS burgers, loaded fries and shakes - not your average soft-play menu.

Parties they'll talk about

Private space, dedicated host, food included. You bring the cake, we do the rest.

Food & drink

Burgers worth the trip.
Even without the play.

This isn't reheated nuggets and sad chips. It's PHAT BUNS - the burger spot Derby actually queues for. Same kitchen, brought straight to your table while the kids play.
