    Fun and challenging routes and always refreshing the routes so each time I come there is something new whilst doing so in a fashion that lets you have a project. Staff are super friendly and helpful making checking in easy.

    I love the Climbing Hangar! I go several times a week with my kids, and the staff could not be more friendly and helpful. They're always willing to answer questions no matter how busy they are. Their forms are LGBTQIA+ inclusive, as is the general atmosphere. The food is lovely but can be a bit slow as they are primarily a climbing centre and they can be a tiny bit short staffed on occasion. For me, though, I am always happy to be there, and the team go out of their way to be lovely.

    Hands down one of the best bouldering centres. It was our first time visiting, Sam was extremely friendly and accommodating in showing us around. We made use of the free guest offer which already made it excellent value for money, but was amazed at the fact shoes were also free to hire as well as chalk bags! The routes were interesting and varied compared to most locations we've been, there really was something for everyone. Great changing and clean showering facilities too. We didn't get chance to try out the sourdough pizza's freshly made on-site but we will definitely be back!

    Really fun day out... Er... In! Wall rotation is good, and it's a great workout. Their café is nice too, and it's not too pricey. Definitely a great place to make new friends and get a good exercise in!

    Great place for serious adult boulderers to hone their climbing techniques (although the staff are trying to cater more for children these days). Great for both men and women - lovely, helpful staff and really friendly regular climbers who are always happy to give you tips. Great place to meet new people. Free yoga classes for members too!

    We've just had our son's birthday party here with 8 of his friends and it was brilliant! Super friendly, super fun staff. The party food was great, amazing pizzas. The cafe is also fantastic, and licensed so great for parents. (And cracking air con which was a pleasant surprise on a hot day). Everyone really enjoyed, would 100% recommend :)

    Everyone is welcoming, helpful and really lovely. I can chat with anyone about any route. We all help each other. Delicious food in the cafe. Kit shop and clothing range. Staff are all knowledgeable, friendly, inclusive. Membership not expensive. The Hangar is clean, tidy, welcoming. Thanks to all the Crew

    Called in as we were visiting the area and the were made very welcome by the super friendly staff. Overall a great climbing experience (Plus great coffee and tea cakes)

  • 5/5 Christopher d. 11 months ago on Google
    Been going here for a few months now been a fantastic experience the staff are absolutely amazing. And the bouldering walls change often so its always different. It is such a friendly environment with other climbers willing to help and give advice if you get stuck at certain points. The food is excellent and a fair price aswell and the membership is very reasonable

    Wonderful experience for children with well organized sessions on the weekend. An hour of fun activity and fitness, whilst parents can enjoy a smashing coffee in the cafe. Bliss 💖

  • 5/5 anthony c. 1 year ago on Google
    I popped in here as I was in the locality and saw the sign for coffee and that dogs are welcome which makes a nice change. I'm not a climber but it was a great place to relax. The coffee was fantastic, the best I've had in a very long while and better than what the chains offer. It's a really nice, chilled vibe and the dog and I were made very welcome. In fact we returned as my dog was desperate to get back!

    Gets very busy at peak times but great fun at off peak times!! (Daytime) The cafe area also offers many vegan options and particularly delicious smoothies. Love it here and would highly recommend to others!

    Visited here for the 3 round of the winter comp, such lovely happy staff and good vibes! Great DJ, Great routes and a lovely community. If I'm back in Swansea again I will definitely be coming by, 100% worth a visit if you are in the area:)

    This climbing gym may not be the biggest but in my opinion it certainly offers the best value for money in the South Wales area. Cheap membership, cheap entry that includes shoes if you need to borrow some and they make some great food. The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable too. Some of the bigger chains that have opened up recently could really learn a thing or two.

  • 5/5 Charlotte B. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent, kind and friendly place! Every staff member routes for you and cheers you on, and can always turn a bad day into a great one. Plus women's rock social club is amazing, has taught me so much over the past year, and made some great new friends!

  • 5/5 Elisabeth C. 1 year ago on Google
    The Climbing Hangar is a great place to climb. There's a really nice climbing community there. The more experienced climbers are really supportive and will give you pointers. They have a new set every week which means there's always a new challenge. They have a great selection of food and drinks which is perfect for socialising after a climb. The staff are always helpful and friendly.

    Best climbing gym, visit regularly! Lovely supportive staff, great and accessible for fellow disabled climbers and have a very good cafe! Really good prices, really worth checking out. Amazing, clean and my favourite gym!

  • 5/5 Robert J. 1 year ago on Google
    First visit. A thorough intro was given for the young ones. Excellent range of short boulder climbs for over 8s maybe a little tough for younger kids, but there is a smaller area upstairs. The climbs are changed frequently. They do parties and food too. One of the better efforts for this kind of activity in our region.

    Great bouldering centre, I'm new to bouldering but the staff here are very friendly and welcoming, and genuinely seem to love what they do. We've found it to be quite busy when we visit, but it's not too much of an issue. There's even a cafe on site and you're able to buy bouldering gear. Would definitely recommend this place if you're looking to try bouldering.
