Located at 52-56 Towngate, directly adjacent to Keighley Bus Station, Cheeky Monkeys provides a comprehensive play experience combining soft play equipment, imaginative role play areas, and quality dining options all under one roof.
Purpose-Built for Family Fun
Catering for children of six and below, the indoor play centre features a soft play frame, role play zone, alongside a dedicated baby and toddler area providing age-appropriate fun for the youngest visitors. The thoughtful layout keeps all play areas within the same room, allowing parents and carers to relax while maintaining clear sight lines of their children at play.
The carefully crafted menu offers breakfast options, pasta dishes, and pizzas, ensuring parents can enjoy a proper meal while children play.
"I am thrilled to bring this exciting new venue to Keighley families. Parents can eat quality food, while children enjoy safe, engaging play in a purpose-built environment designed with their development in mind."
