Pop along to Story Time this morning at Kiosk At The Park at 9.30. Mrs RSR will be reading a few stories, including Ten Little Superheroes which we got from Rogan's Books last Christmas!
The cake options today are literally looking rather Fantastical! Just what is needed on a cold Autumn day!

Rediscovered Coloretto. Do you play it safe or risk it for a biscuit? Simple, fun and a great alternative to Uno!

Really enjoying Doodle Rush at the moment! It's like insane Pictionary.

It's our open gaming again tomorrow evening. Join us from 7 and play some games. Come alone to a friendly welcome!
A sausage roll, a cup of tea, a slice of coffee cake and a relaxing game of Splendor with a friend. Perfect Hygge activity on this windy September afternoon.

Like Risk but want a shorter game with a bit more strategy, then good news! We now have Memoir '44 available to play!
Play various stylised WWII battles as either the Allied or Axis armies from the opening moment of D-Day to the liberation of Paris in this award winning game!

One of our lovely customers has amazingly recreated Ready Steady Roll with lego. It's amazing!
Loads of little details, like people playing Jungle Speed, our chalkboard sign and even a mini me!
Love it!

Defeated! I have already been defeated at the #darrelldobblechallenge by Erica. Safe to say I'm devastated!
I blame it on a lucky draw! Still ready to challenge anyone else!

The kids are back at school, so remember that you can visit us after school for some silly games to help chill out after a hard day of learning!
You can even grab some sandwiches/sausage rolls/scotch eggs/veg samosas for dinner followed by cake too, to save you making dinner at home! Yum and Fun.

Yesterday was our first visit and definitely won’t be our last. In the space of 2 hours we played about 8 different games (the owner explained every game to us so we didn’t have to waste time reading the instructions), we all had cake which was delicious and my daughter said that the milkshake was the best she’s ever had! We can’t wait to come back.
We just enjoyed a fun filled afternoon, playing games and eating cake. What could be better on a wet and windy day. We got to try out lots of games which we were helped to play. Really enjoyed some, which we will go on to buy. Definitely recommend this place, and we will be going back again.
We had a really great morning at Ready Steady Roll this morning! Lovely coffee and drinks and games we’ve never played before. The owner is the font of all knowledge on all the games and picked some great ones out for us. Really lovely place! We will be back!
We had a brilliant time, so much fun, the time flew. Darrell knew his games, recommended fabulous, fun ones and taught us the rules... the parents tried hard... but the 8yr old was victorious... great time had by all... highly recommended... booked to come back in 5 days ��
We had a 1st visit today with some friends. We absolutely loved it. The staff are amazing suggesting games to play and then patiently guiding us through the rules. We played some great games, had some good coffee and a couple of slices of lovely cake. An awesome morning spent having fun!
This is a great place to visit and have time playing and trying out new games. Great cake on offer too �
Spent a few hours here with my son today and we had a great time. We tried loads of different games and got some ideas for birthday presents.
The coffee and cake were lovely and great to see a selection of gluten and dairy free cakes as well.
We will definitely be back.
Our first time here and it was brilliant, lovely and friendly, explain all the rules to you for each game and on hand to help you out, a bonus is you get to eat cake and have a cuppa whilst playing!
Definitely be back on a regular basis.
My kids (12 & 9) and I had such a fun afternoon - the perfect way to get us all off our screens during half term.
We played about 6 or 7 different games and Darrell’s knowledge and recommendations were always spot on!
The chocolate cake was delicious and we even came home with a new game - Rhino Hero Super Battle �
Happy kids, happy Mumma �
Just awesome! The boys loved it and can't wait to go back. Brilliant concept. The fact that you recommend and explain how to play the games is what makes the difference. Lovely to drink coffee, eat cake and listen to the sound of families having fun together.
I would just like to say a massive thank you for a fantastic party yesterday. All the children had a fantastic time. We have already had people say they're going to book a table. A fantastic place for some quality family time and a great place for a birthday party. Thank you so much for making one very happy 10year old.
Brilliant. Fabulous. Splendid. Had such a great time yesterday topped of with a cuppa and cake. Just perfect. Can’t wait to return. Thank you for your help with our purchases of new games. �
Brilliant, family friendly, chilled out vibe. Darryl was a great host & mentor. Way came away well fed, well watered & of course with a new game as well ha
Brilliant! Fun family afternoon and even got the seal of approval from my auty 14 year old who loved the atmosphere and huge range of games (the cakes and milkshakes were pretty good too apparently!) will be back!
As a board games fan I think this is a great concept and I was really looking forward to a visit and it didn't disappoint! Lovely staff and great games and I love that you pick the games we play and teach us how to play them. We had such a laugh and spent a great few hours playing games we've never even heard of! The cake was amazing! So delicious! We loved it and we will definitely be back!
Another great few hours spent here this morning. Its so nice and cool which is great especially in this hot weather. So many games to choose from and I love not having to read the instructions as Darryl explains everything.
Absolutely fantastic little gem of a place. Took my wife and four kids and we all loved it. Great games and best of all we were shown how to play each one. Great place to go for families and people of all ages.
Absolute top marks. Just celebrated a major birthday at Ready Steady Roll. What a cool place, never realised just how fun board games could be.
We had a party of 17 and we all fit with room to spare. Fun and interesting games and well managed by the owner. Thanks again Ready Steady Roll, you made a wonderful birthday party!
A great place to get away from electronic devices and enjoy a couple of hours finding new games to play and eating cake. What’s not to like? Staff are friendly and extremely knowledgeable and can get you playing a brand new game in minutes. Cannot recommend highly enough. The whole family love it here.
