How Baby-Friendly is TheLight-Stockport?
What makes it 70% Baby-Friendly: Parents with a baby enjoy dedicated baby-friendly screenings, change tables and pram space, but loud bowling and arcade zones suit infants poorly, so visits may be limited to cinema and dining.

- Free Baby Ticket: Babies under 1 enter free on Baby-Friendly screenings.
- Baby-Change On Site: All toilets include a changing unit at no extra cost.
Challenges:
- Noise Levels: Sound may still startle some infants despite reduced volume.
- Limited Nursing Rooms: No dedicated nursing room; feed in the seating or toilets.

This place has been invaluable to me over the past couple of years with a two now nearly four year old. Their toddler and family viewings are great and really good value. Overall a very well thought out place

We had our son's 11th birthday party here recently, and it was a great experience - it's such good value, especially the bowling time, the arcade games and the food is lovely. Aleina in particular was a wonderful host who took really good care of us all. This is the third year in a row we've had birthday parties at the Light, and it never disappoints!

Also brilliant that if you’re a free member you can get a full refund a...
