i hardly ever leave reviews but i feel like i have to say how much i've loved coming here over the past month. I'm new to bouldering and the TCH team have set fantastic routes that teach you everything in a way that feels natural and builds confidence, strength and skills. i've consistently felt comfortable and challenged simultaneously. I've come alone, with friends and in the weekly staff-led socials and have left elated every time i've used the gym. particular shoutouts to Carmen & Mol for being so kind, supportive and encouraging to me. i really reccomend checking it out if you're in the centre of bristol, with the student discount memberships are really good value as well. (plus their house blend coffee is lovely and with free wifi i can always rely on the cafe to work on uni assignments)
One of the better climbing gyms I've been to. Clean, staff are nice, gym area is good, general facilities are well kept, cafe area is amazing, and a solid variety of climbs to do for all levels of experience. The beginner climbs are very interesting, making them accessible for new climbers and fun for more experienced climbers to mess around with. The routesetting seems to be a very strong point here and with three training boards in the gym, it gives everyone many options of what to do. Highly recommend (Thanks for the free beta and advice Brendan, solid staff members here)
What a brilliant place!! The staff are excellent, very helpful and friendly. The facilities are awesome, good changing facilities with a shower - alas, only one per 'binary' gender... Good to note though there are free period supplies in both changing rooms indicating trans friendliness. The two floors of climbing walls are excellent with LOTS of different climbs for all levels and they will have new ones every week. There is a gym too with weights, a rowing machine and more (18+ only there) Climbing is from age 7 and plenty of shoes to borrow for your session. Memberships are great value too. Then there is the cafe area, clean, welcoming, great coffee, toasties, cakes and more... And reasonable speed WiFi if you need it... Fabulous exercise that does not feel like exercise!! And everyone is pretty sociable too!!
The climbing gym is an outstanding facility for both beginners and experienced climbers. The variety of routes and problems caters to all skill levels, ensuring a challenging and rewarding experience. The staff are incredibly friendly, supportive, and always willing to offer helpful advice. Furthermore, the atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, making it a great place to socialize and enjoy a shared passion. Overall, this climbing gym truly deserves a perfect rating.
Pretty good for the size and the price plus They have a colour system for difficulty. I can't speak to the higher levels but the first four colours felt about right in scale. Staff are friendly and approachable too
