🏴 The Captain's Log
Got a Captain Ted's party on the horizon? Excellent choice, Captain. Here's everything you need for smooth sailing on the big day…
Ahoy! You made it! Check in with one of Captain Ted's crew and we'll get your party adventure underway.
Your dedicated Party Host will be on hand to keep everything shipshape — from welcoming your little pirates to party food, cake and the all-important Happy Birthday!
Your job? Enjoy it, make some memories and take approximately 847 photos.
Your party adventure lasts 1 hour and 45 minutes.
First up, 1 hour to run wild on the soft play, followed by 45 minutes in the Party Room for the party feast, birthday celebrations and cake!
Finished eating but still got energy to burn? Back aboard — they're welcome to head back onto the frame after they've eaten. Just don't get seasick!
Aye, Captain! Bring your cake and candles and we'll make sure your little pirate gets their big moment — we'll gather the crew and lead the Happy Birthday.
The cake isn't included in the package, so don't leave port without it!
A children's sandwich buffet with crisps, cucumber and carrot sticks and pieces of cheese, plus unlimited sugar-free squash and water.
Simple, tasty and pirate-approved.
Let us know in advance and we'll advise what we can safely accommodate. Email the crew at info@captainteds.co.uk before your party.
Fear not, landlubbers… there's coffee. The café is open during parties, serving barista-made coffee, drinks, food and treats.
Good news — not much! Just remember:
We'll send a guest list template during the week of your party. Captain Ted's party invitations are available to collect!
Party bags aren't included, so bring your own bags of treasure for your little pirates to take home.
Nope! Guest numbers refer to the children attending, not their grown-ups. Grown-ups are welcome aboard.
Of course! If siblings are joining in and using the soft play, include them in your numbers where applicable. Nobody likes a stowaway.
Aye — socks on deck! All children must wear socks on the soft play.
Arrive around 10 minutes before your start time to check in and gather the crew.
Please don't arrive too early though — the crew may still be setting up after the previous party!
Absolutely — balloons and freestanding decorations that are quick to set up work best.
We just ask that you don't stick, tape or fix anything directly to our walls. Planning something bigger? Have a word with the crew beforehand.
Get in touch before booking an external entertainer or character so we can make sure it works with the venue and your party timings.
To manage allergens and food safety we don't allow outside food unless agreed in advance for a dietary or medical requirement.
There is one very important exception… BIRTHDAY CAKE! 🎂
Weekend parties run Saturdays and Sundays at:
Looking for a weekday celebration? Email info@captainteds.co.uk and we'll see what's available.
AYE, CAPTAIN! Takeover Ted's gives you exclusive hire of the whole venue — no other public soft-play guests.
Galleons are notoriously difficult to parallel park. For anything with four wheels, see our Find Us & Parking page — worth sharing with your guests too.
We'll send a guest list template during the week of your party. Return it with final guest details and any dietary requirements.
Absolutely not. You're off duty, Captain! Your Party Host guides the celebration, keeps things running and organises the cake moment.
You concentrate on celebrating, taking photos and making memories.
Still got a question? Email the crew or ring 0191 213 5813.
