club outing, the staff will make sure<br />
everyone has a blast! On weekend<br />

opportunity to relax with a coffee on<br />
one of the cafe’s sofas and watch the<br />
action on screen. While children’s<br />
snacks are included in the laser<br />
session fee, the menu has been<br />
revamped in recent weeks and has<br />
a range of f<strong>res</strong>hly prepared options.<br />
