Birmingham Bouldering Centre

Friendly staff, great coffee, nice range of routes to climb

I've been going to Birmingham Bouldering Centre on a weekly basis (Covid restrictions notwithstanding) for a good few years now and have always found it to have a really relaxed vibe with very attentive and knowledgable members of staff - all climbers themselves - in attendance. A little gem.

Really well run climbing centre. Handy location for snow Hill station and the city centre. Staff are always friendly and helpful. There are a wide range of routes for beginners through to advanced levels. Various other exercise equipment for finger strength available upstairs too. The cake a delicious! Gets busy of an evening.

A small, basic, but well run bouldering centre.Staff are friendly and the route setting is really good. Although it may be guilty of having too many overhang routes, and only a very small slab wall.I’d definitely recommend this gym for climbers of all levels. However for a first time climbers I might suggest going elsewhere first, as bigger gyms with more varied climbs might serve as a better introduction to the fun of the sport.For all other levels though, Birmingham Bouldering Centre is fantastic, especially for people focussed on training and improvement, as the route setting definitely pushes you through your paces in many bouldering styles.

I love climbing at the Birmingham Bouldering Centre - great for beginners and a bonus that they have lovely coffee too! Would highly recommend

Great place to spend a few hours. Friendly staff, reasonable price and lots of fun.

My wife and I have been going to BBR for about 2-years, and have received nothing but smiles, support, encouragement, and expertise from the staff and other members. These attributes were so important when we were novices setting out on our bouldering journey... The centre is cosy and friendly, always has a mix of challenging routes, and serves excellent (and cheap) coffee and cake. There's a small but functional gym upstairs for working on your finger guns. Overall, this is an amazing place we love going to - it kinda feels like you're visiting someones house - I guess the owner has managed to create some hygge ;) Highly recommended, so if you are bored and at home, get your ass down here now!

Great small bouldering place, the regulars seem to be all friendly and helpful if you having trouble with some of the routes.

The routesetting is really fun and the fun and the training are is amazing

So far the staff have been exceptionally friendly, and the lunchtime £3.50 offer is a steal. Decent number of routes for me to get around as someone getting back into climbing after a year or so out of it. Every time I've visited there has been someone route setting.Would recommend at least a look in.
