Cheeky Monkey Cafe in Mount Barker - Adelaide - Review

Last school holidays, during our Adelaide trip, we visited the Cheeky Monkey Café in Mount Barker in the Adelaide Hills. This great indoor playground was recently reopened after new owners Aaron & Ash gave it a nice and clean makeover.

The kids took no time to test out the facilities by taking on the 3 lane super slide, straight tunnel slide, curly tunnel slide, quick green slide, flying fox, spinning seats, soft obstacle course and burmese bridge.

They also loved the bouncy castle and had a short play in the separate toddler area with ball pit as well as the rides.

We were there during a birthday party which was setup by parents in the party room and enjoyed a coffee from the café.

The kids had so much fun, they had a great workout running around everywhere and going down all the different slides. So much so, that we took them home exhausted and very sweaty!
