Summer is in full swing, and if you’re finding it harder than ever to pull the family away from phones, tablets, and gaming consoles, you’re not alone! Swapping small screens for real-world fun doesn’t have to mean fighting for entertainment.
Buttermarket Ipswich has everything you need under one roof for an action-packed, screen-free day out the whole family will actually agree on.
Here is your playbook for trading digital downtime for real-world memory-making this August!
1. Trade Small Screens for the Big Screen at Omniplex Cinema
Start your day by upgrading your screen time to a truly immersive experience. At Omniplex Cinema, high-definition visuals, massive screens, and surround sound turn movie-watching into an event. Grab a bucket of warm popcorn, sink into comfortable seating, and catch the summer’s biggest family blockbusters together on the big screen.
2. Hit the Lanes & Arcade at Superbowl UK
Ready for some friendly family competition? Head over to Superbowl UK to lace up your bowling shoes and hit the lanes. Standard bowling is fantastic for all ages. Lightweight balls and automatic bumpers ensure even the youngest players can join in.
3. Challenge the Crew to Crazy Golf at Boom Battle Bar
Take your family tournament up a notch at Boom Battle Bar. Known for its ultimate competitive socialising, Boom Battle Bar offers an adventure-packed crazy golf course filled with wild obstacles, glowing lights, and clever turns. It’s an engaging, offline challenge that tests your aim and brings out everyone’s creative side.
4. Feel the Sand Between Your Toes at the Free Beach
Who says you need to travel to the coast for seaside fun? Buttermarket’s Free Indoor Beach brings all the joy of the seaside straight to the heart of Ipswich, completely weather-proof and 100% free!
Kids can build sandcastles, play, and take part in free summer crafts while parents sit back and relax. It’s the perfect budget-friendly pitstop to break up your day without spending a penny.
5. Refuel with Family Dining at Wagamama & Prezzo
After a full day of bowling, golf, and sandcastles, round off your trip with a delicious sit-down meal. Buttermarket’s family-friendly dining spots make eating out stress-free for all ages:
- Wagamama: Perfect for fresh, vibrant Asian dishes, from comforting chicken katsu curries to child-friendly mini bento boxes complete with fresh fruit and juices.
- Prezzo: Ideal if you’re craving Italian classics – think stone-baked pizzas, rich pasta dishes, and delicious gelato desserts that keep both kids and adults happy.
No WiFi required, just great energy, fantastic food, and quality time together. Head down to Buttermarket Ipswich this week, ditch the small screens, and create summer memories that last long after the holidays are over.
