One of the greatest losses of adulthood? Not being able to throw yourself into a playpen full of multicoloured, plastic spheres anymore (well, without being met by awkward glares). Fortunately, this nostalgic need has been recognised on a regional scale. Venues all over the nation have opened to fill the void, and you'll find them in our guide to the very best ball pit bars in the UK for adults.

Check out Aquum, the award-winning ball pit bar in London, restaurant and late-night venue spanning four floors. It's perfect for groups who can't make their mind up about what they want to do, however, your night will almost definitely involve kicking off your shoes and launching into the play area.
If you keep Googling 'indoor ball pits for adults near me' (aren't we all), and live in Croydon, then you're in luck as FunHouse is just around the corner. Think beer pong, arcade machines and pool tables plus all the nostalgic goodness you could wish for.
Is a giant adult ball pit what's missing from your life? Check out Howlers in Newcastle. Open seven days a week, it boasts a big play area and live entertainment. Take your pick from a crazy cocktail list, including the raspberry vodka-based Betty Swollocks plus a bubblegum daiquiri, slushie-style.
