Jungle Jack's Adventure

About Jungle Jack's Adventure

Jungle Jack's Adventure is a spacious, jungle-themed soft play inside the Better Eldon Leisure centre in Grey's Quarter at Eldon Square, aimed at children aged eight and under. It has a multi-level frame with slides, ball pools and climbing, a separate area for the youngest visitors and a café where parents can sit with a coffee while the children play. It is open every day from mid-morning, with last entry in the afternoon, and being run by Better as part of the leisure centre it has the changing and toilet facilities you would expect alongside the play.

Its great advantage is location: it is inside the Eldon Square shopping centre, fully undercover, and an easy walk from Monument Metro, which makes it one of the few dedicated soft play options genuinely in the city centre rather than out in the suburbs. The car park is off Percy Street for anyone driving in. As with all soft play, grippy socks are required, and it gets busy at weekends and in school holidays, so a weekday morning in term time is the calmest time to visit. Check the leisure centre's website for current session times and prices.
