61%Baby-Friendly

Positives:

  • Pushchair and lift access: Step-free routes and a lift connect street level to the basement tour entrance.
  • Baby-changing facilities: One changing station is available underground near the start of the tour.
  • Highchairs in café: Free highchairs are on a first-come, first-served basis in the on-site café.

Challenges:

  • No nursing room: There’s no private feeding space; use café seating or accessible toilets for privacy.
  • Narrow corridors: Some tunnels are tight and get busy, which can stall pushchair movement.
  • No baby play area: The attraction has no dedicated infant activities; bring quiet toys to keep baby calm.

We visited this museum with my family. The Churchill War Rooms are a must-visit for anyone interested in World War II history or British heritage. What impressed me most was how well the museum recreates the atmosphere of wartime London — the narrow corridors, the low ceilings, and especially the lack of natural light give you a real sense of what it must have felt like to live and work undergroun...

The Churchill War Rooms is an incredible piece of world history that is quite unassuming and easy to miss from street level however, step inside and head underground and something rather special unfolds. The discreet entrance is tucked away at a corner of the building and you enter through the glazed doors and copper canopy roof. Stairs or a lift then take you underground to the reception area w...

The gift shop has a good selection of books. The t...
