Excellent story line and set scenes with their noises & voices. Particularly liked the employee being told off for his bad timekeeping! I would suggest adding an interactive display to "The Fastest Train Ever" and spot lighting the relevant parts as, even when walking under the train (that was a great idea) it would have been good to have an idea of the main parts and their function.

What a lovely cafe above the STEAM museum. The choice of drinks snacks and meals is very good as well as being very reasonably priced. This was our first visit and we were impressed by the friendly warm welcome from the staff, the speed of service and the cleanliness of the cafe as a whole. We will be returning to enjoy it once again in the near future I'm sure. Thank you.

For a lover of museum like me, this place is gold. My son also enjoys here a lot. I have a season ticket. The museum is in walking distance... So not a trouble for me going in there. I am not accustomed to the food here... It's okay for me. Not that I will crave for. Staff is good.

A nice enough cafe and even though it's upstairs there is a disabled lift. It's always was an amazing that's why it's only got 4 stars but the food was ok and at the end of the day it's a cafe within the Museum and they are never really fantastic however I found the staff friendly the food ok if not a little pricey and the choice Ltd. That's the only reason it's got four stars and I might be being a little picky
