Court Safety Concerns – Please Read The ground was slippery this morning, making the courts extremely dangerous. Unfortunately, court maintenance appears to be nonexistent from the management. When asked, they claim it's safe to play, but they don’t play themselves to understand the real risks, especially around the baseline. Please be cautious and speak to a coach if you're unsure. The leaves on the court are large and scattered. If you slip while running over one, A&E might be your next stop. It feels like all they do is take money while showing little care for customer safety. Where is the management? Perhaps they could walk around the courts, do a proper tidy-up, and carry out a safety check. I genuinely love this place. The coaches and café staff are fantastic. Sadly, the reception area seems more focused on commission than customer care.

There is a cafe here with indoor and outdoor seating, just to the right of the gatehouse at the entrance to Hyde Park opposite Exhibition Road. It is open to anyone although it is part of a sports facility, and in our experience has been less busy than the cafes by the Serpentine. Service was quick, there is a reasonable selection of sandwiches and pastries, and the coffee was excellent.

I’ve been playing here for a decade now - the facilities are fantastic, and the people are truly lovely. Coach Falid is an outstanding coach with exceptional technique and a thoughtful, clear approach to every element of the game - it is his guidance that’s made a real difference to my development in the sport :) Cannot recommend him and this place enough!
