    I was happy to find a womens only gym as a muslim woman and joined finding many of the members are muslim for this reason. Unfortunately although the gym boasts a strictly womens only meaning no male can be present on the gym floor, workmen would be present without pre warning but given 5 minute notice while in the gym which meant i had to leave. This happened on so many occasions and the worse of it is the latest time there was no warning workmen were present when I entered the gym exposed. The management and team showed no remorse but just tried to excuse themselves. They did nothing to try to rectify by compensating some extra days on my membership instead preferred to lose me as a member

    The changing facilities are poor. The club's advice is not to leave valuables in the lockers this means carrying a bag full of stuff around the gym. The staff are very friendly and the place is clean but the gym facilities are on the poor side. Quite often machines don't work, there are parts missing but they are clean. Unfortunately there have been days when there was no water for drinking available...and take your own wipe cloths too because there's often nothing to clean down the machines after use. This could be a great place but needs a little TLC from the owners.

    Have only visited this place to make use of the meeting rooms, but the rooms themselves are clean and quiet with A/C and everything you need. Had some 2-person rehearsals here and the staff were so nice and accommodating. Cafe next door is convenient. Great location and people/vibe. Can't wait to visit them again.

    Great staff, super clean gym environment, excellent selection and variety of gym equipment and machines. This female-only gym is a revelation: so much more enjoyable than any other gym I’ve been to! There’s something very special about The Bridge being a charity: they don’t over sell, and pack in the punters, and the staff and trainers are genuinely there to help and support women β€” everyone is always smiling. I love it!

    This place is absolutely fantastic and unlike your average gym.The staff are brilliant supportive and the most cheerful motivational people you could meet.As a womens only gym, it offeres up a unique and supportive environment where women of all shapes and sizes can become active and reach their fitness goals in a safe non judgmental environment. Showers, gym and changing areas are clean. The cafe attached offers up fresh juices, delicious lunches and coffee. It a great place to swing by for lunch or breakfast when your at work for post gym workout. Well done team Bridge if only more places were like this!

    I tried the Dine experience in the cafe with some friends and had a great time. It's pay as you want (or as you can) but the staff made a lot of effort to make you feel welcome and curated an amazing experience, from the service, the food, presentation, music and some cocktails too. It's inclusive and enjoyable for all. Congrats and keep doing it.

    This is the best gym in london imo. Very good price with classes. It is female only too! The only β€˜downside’ is that it is small, but honestly I don’t really care much as it has everything I need. You can also people watch from the treadmill, so you don’t get bored and you can see the shard from the gym lol!

    Great women's gym with nice staff, reasonable prices and an on site cafe. The gym is small but pretty well stocked. It could benefit from a squat rack but they'll get there eventually! It's rarely busy and the showers are always hot. Would definitely recommend

    Very good atmosphere, staff are very approachable and helpful. I have been to gyms where this is not the case. Showers are very good, the whole place has a well kept look, both equipment and general environment.

    I’ve been a member of all the top chains and have to say, this gym is the best! Really friendly staff, who will help you achieve your goals. The PT’s want to help, rather than take your money. Great female only gym.

    The bridge gym is such an amazing gym, I initially joined because it is a women's only gym but I couldn't have asked for a better gym! It might not be as big as other gyms but best believe they have all the equipment you need. I love the fact that the staff are friendly (shoutout to Sam especially for helping me out!) and the classes that they have are so good :) I just wish this gym was much closer to my house but it is worth the trek! If you're thinking of joining - JOIN TODAY!!!

    This is hands down the best gym I've ever been to. It's small but mighty and packs a punch with all of the great fitness classes and community spirit. I love it and I'd recommend it to any ladies who want to get a good workout on in a safe and warm-spirited environment.

    Nice and well lit cafe bar with comfortable seating area. Prices are a bit high but I suppose you pay for the location.

    Lovely female only gym with friendly staff. Gym has all the facilities/equipment you need. They also offer a free induction to explain how some of the machines work and info about the gym which was super helpful.

    The best womens only gym. The staff are so friendly, and helpful. It's definitely a great gym if you are looking for a women's only environment where you can feel motivated and comfortable at the same time.

  • 1/5 Ryan S. 11 months ago on Google
    As me a male and my male work colleague entered the cafe we did not feel welcome in the slightest. We sat down awaiting s menu which did not come. So we went to the counter to ask for a menu was told they dont have menus and only had a reduced menu, this only included poor quality sliced chicken and dry low standard bagels. We decided stick around and try the food which was extremely dissapointing, when my colleague asked for tomato ketchup to spice up the dry food the waitress with a lazy attitude sniggered at him. All in all poor expercience. Seems unless your a left wing activist femenist you are not welcome in the premesis . As i we left i tried to thank them and wish them a good day, however we was ignored and given dirty looks.
