  • 4/5 Olu Thomas A. 4 years ago on Google • 479 reviews
    This is a beautiful garden amidst the noise of costain. Seated in the roundabout and sharing the place with a relaxation center where alcohol and beers are the main drinks. Its kind of paradox. The garden is left uncovered though there are few small huts serving as shelter against the weather. But I believe it could be better. And sometimes the grass are left unattended to! No seat too!

    This park is a 3 minute walk from the popular Leventis bus stop. The Bridge Park has a chill atmosphere adorned with grasses, flowers, and a statue for good measure. The overhead bridge does a good job as a sun shade and the vicinity appears clean and tidy. Similar to the nearby UBA Foundation Park, it's better visited in the evening or early in the morning when the sun is not in full force. Overall, it's a suitable place for informal gatherings.

  • 2/5 Nauteeq B. 4 years ago on Google • 118 reviews
    There's a lot of loud music here. If you're walking this place isn't where you want to walk to; motor can jam you as you're trying to cross to the park. A lot of people are usually here between 7pm and 10pm Friday night. It's pretty cheap too. But you surely don't want to take your baby to this place. Wear thick trousers. Mosquitoes are there. It's also open hair. The smell of fresh grass can whisk away that of alcohol and piss. You'll enjoy good Nigerian music here. But one thing you should be wary of is that it's located just under one of Lagos's most stressed bridges: you can be enjoying and next minute bridge falls on you. What do you then say to God, eh? What?

  • 4/5 Chiddie A. 6 years ago on Google • 104 reviews
    Very nice relaxation spot. This place is always bubbling every day of the week but it goes some notches higher during the weekends and public holidays. A fun lovers Haven of some sort. They have good beers but mostly the Nigerian breweries brands, spacious parking lots and all kinds of delicacies to go with the good beers....it can easily be accessible and most importantly the Prices here are so affordable.

    This place is criminally underused. Attended an event there about two weeks ago and was surprised at the potential it had or could have as a functioning park. Although its location is tricky, and its ringed by busstops, noise and an area most will regard as unsafe when night falls, but with proper security, it could be a real gem. For people to hang out, have picnics, play board games in, small concerts and so on...

  • 4/5 Rowaiye T. 4 years ago on Google • 80 reviews
    Awesome area, has Bus terminals to board Bus to your various destinations. The place is always lightening up by Street light to curbs crimes and aids security, at night. It connects to Oyingbo, Apapa, Ijora, Ojuelegba, Marina and soon to mention few.

  • 4/5 Emmanuel Odafe E. 5 years ago on Google • 64 reviews
    Very busy, noisy, a refreshing place after your day activities. It has a bar, a car park and a public toilet. A nice place to hangout with whoever you wanna meet with.

  • 3/5 Adeola A. 4 years ago on Google • 52 reviews
    Lovely night life, especially this holiday season. Live music with lots to eat for cheap. Quite airy so you dont have to worry about sweating unless you're having Peppersoup or their spicy grilled fish.

  • 3/5 Ohiani Clement Enesi (. 4 years ago on Google • 40 reviews
    Costain is always a busy area at any time of the day. Its close to the national arts theatre too....from here you can get a connecting bus to the island but as per the park and gardens I'll say apart from the flexing joint under the bridge here I don't really think the gardens is functioning

  • 3/5 Rita A. 11 months ago on Google • 33 reviews

  • 4/5 Isaac U. 3 years ago on Google
    The park is financed and managed by United Bank of Africa (UBA). Although not easily accessible to the public, it sits as a beautiful aesthetic to the Marina view of Lagos Island. It's well-marinated, great gardening and most of the time, kept clean!
