Southern Quarter

Negative experience: I’ve tried to go here twice recently but despite declaring their opening times as 8am, it’s been shut with a sign saying closed on both occasions. I think they need to update their hours or opening.

Fantastic experience: The very best CrossFit box in the south. Great coaches and programs for all abilities, nice cafe and shop as an added bonus

Fantastic experience: Epic place, everthything is relaxed, chilled and family friendly. Even though it's a high end, busy and sweaty box with Crazy Strength on site. The whole setup is brilliant. Cafe upstairs in a relaxed environment, plenty of choice and lots of seating. Good coffee and choice snacks. The Box itself is spacious with large outdoor rig, great staff and always willing to help. BJJ classes also run here, not seen the facilities but told its top choice. Industrial but modern feel, whether you just want a coffee, or you're here to work out, it's worth a trip.

Fantastic experience: Easily the best CrossFit Gym I've been to, having visited quite a few travelling. Some very flexible membership options too with friendly approachable staff. I've not tried it in winter yet, but I'm betting it's not going to be freezing cold like a lot of boxes! Cafe protein shakes afterwards are also very tasty.

Fantastic experience: Started training BJJ here and love it. World class coaching, absolutely top notch facilities. Everyone is super friendly. The cafe is really pleasant and makes a killer latte. Can't recommend SQ enough.

Fantastic experience: Thoroughly enjoyed my time at Southernquarter, albeit a few months. Only attended the BJJ sessions, to which the two instructers Luiz and Hian were brilliant. The crossfit and weightlifting area looked top notch. Overall the Atmosphere was brilliant, clean and tidy place to train. One of those gyms you wish you could pick up and move closer to home. Thank you for a good time.

Fantastic experience: Great tasting coffee, calm cosy vibes. Decor is fresh and modern. Good choice of alternative milks. Clean toilets. Was looking for coffee in the area and happened to drive past a sign for Southern Quarter. Upon arriving I wondered if I had misread the sign as I noticed gym equipment through the window. But we went on in anyway and I'm really glad we did. The coffee shop is open to all, not just for members. Can't say I'll be using the gym side anytime soon (although it did look pretty amazing) but will stop off for coffee again if passing through. They also have a selection of protein bars, snacks, protein and health drinks etc of course. There's a balcony with seating outdoors too which will be lovely to use on a sunny day.

Fantastic experience: Excellent. Easy to find. Cafe is friendly and our drinks were served with a smile (I think by Annie) who also promoted the gym downstairs. Will definitely come again! Thank you

Fantastic experience: What a gym. Amazing staff and training team, amazingly well equipped and high quality training space. Great vibe . Will be back

Fantastic experience: I do lunch the BJJ classes here with Luiz and they are excellent . So is the coffee , the WiFi and the phone signal.

Fantastic experience: I go to Southern Quarter for the BJJ and Luiz is a fantastic instructor. He is very welcoming and creates a great atmosphere. The level of instruction is elite and I wouldn’t want to train anywhere else. The quality of the matts is excellent and they are cleaned at the end of sessions. I would recommend this gym to anyone and particularly to people looking to start BJJ or go to the next level in their training.

Fantastic experience: Went on a recce there last week as my son was due to have his Jiu-Jitsu free trial this weekend. Very, very impressive facility. Every looks and feels top-notch, from the equipment in the gym, to the dojo and the cafe. Positive first impressions were reinforced when he had his trial lesson. Highly recommended.

Positive experience: Upstairs cafe is great when they have a chef in, with a great selection of good foods when they've not run out of things. Unfortunately because both of these are inconsistent and unpredictable, you can't know they're available to visit. Similarly to other reviews, the quality of food served when they have done it, is lower than when they first opened. Perhaps it's a different chef or cheaper produce, I'm not sure, but the dip is noticeable. If they had chef on every day, focused on quality delivery, and managed the orders of food stock a bit better, this would easily become my go to and highest recommendation for the whole area. Until then, I have to give them the limited rating.

Fantastic experience: I use this gym for drop-ins when visiting family. Easily one of the best equipped, maintained and sizeable gyms I've been to. Find an excuse to go. The cafe for a protein shake after is also a shout.

Fantastic experience: This is an outstanding state of the art facility. I came for the Crossfit, but the cafe is excellent too. Lovely sitting out on the balcony drinking coffee and grabbing a nourishing bowl of chilli after a workout. Love it!

Fantastic experience: Great gym with excellent equipment and programming for all levels. Amazing food and service at the café too!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic cafe with great coffee & friendly staff You must try Southern Quater

Positive experience: Fab cafe with lots of sporty stuff

Fantastic experience: Very good food and drink here at Southern Quarter, Alice gave good service. Will definitely come back

Fantastic experience: Amazing

Fantastic experience: What more can you ask for, gym, health and an amazing café. Staff are friendly and very welcoming, the food is great; a most welcome change from the fast food outlets in the surrounding area.

Positive experience: Coffee is delicious. Since opening the food has taken a huge dip, the portions are smaller and the produce they are using seems to be cheaper. We ordered a warm poke bowl and it was cold and took almost 45 mins to get to us (but it wasn’t busy). Prices are steep for them to cut corners and not give you exactly what’s on the menu.

Fantastic experience: Incredible facility, it has everything you could want for BJJ, powerlifting, oly lifting, and Crossfit. Clean, excellently maintained, and delicious food from their cafe too! Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful breakfast stop. We found it by chance - saw their sign to 'good food' rather than the 'junk food' in the nearby services - and were not disappointed. Great coffee, excellent scrambled eggs on sourdough toast, and outstanding eggs Benedict. Friendly helpful staff, highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit, Brazilian jujitsu, cafe, social, children activities, community... you name it, its here. The first of its kind, carbon negative build, this eco friendly family gym has everything you need. The facilities are faultless, showers and changing rooms are spaciousand clean, a magnificent crossfit gym with plenty of clean up to date ( brand new ) equipment, they have a whole section specifically for weightlifting and power lifting too. The dojo for Brazilian jujitsu is spacious, windows right along to give a open feel, new mats, just a whole vibe up there. The place absolutely spotless for cleanliness. The food here isn't your average cafe food either, you need to try to understand and they often hold social events too. The cafe is open to none members too. If this hasn't said enough, the staff and coaches here are above and beyond amazing. From the crossfit coaches, to the weightlifting and powerlifting coaches, to the Brazilian jujitsu coaches, they really are the best of the best. The community is supportive, friendly and welcoming. The owner is very humble and passionate about this incredible space. I can't recommend enough. And if your coming from a conventional gym, I realy do urge to give this place a go, you will never look back. To finish, the cafe is also a shop and is full of some I'd the best proven supplements to support your training. Along with other items you might need such as clothing, bags, ropes to name a few.

Fantastic experience: Called in the cafe, very nice breakfast and coffee

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant. We were taken out for breakfast for fathers day.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great staff, amazing facilities and food. By far the best gym within the area. Couldn’t rate it any higher.

Fantastic experience: One of the best facilities in the area. State of the art and super accessible for all. Friendly community of people! The food omg the food?

Fantastic experience: If you want quality then Southern Quarter is the place to go! The building hosts a number of facilities, cafe, CrossFit, BJJ, weightlifting and yoga. It has beautifully clean changing facilities which is rare find in any CrossFit establishment! The cafe offers beautifully presented and delicious food! My personal favourite being the pancakes! The coaching of both CrossFit and BJJ is sublime and really caters for all abilities! This establishment also caters for children in both CrossFit and BJJ and are offered 3 sessions per week in both sports giving children from the age of 3 something to do 6 days a week! All 3 of my children attend and all have grown in confidence since joining!

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t rate SQ highly enough. The facilities are world class, clean and top quality. I train BJJ here on a daily basis and the atmosphere is great, no egos or attitudes, just great instruction and like minded people to train with. Starting from scratch as someone who’d never train any martial arts before was daunting but I needn’t have worried, the friendly welcome and patience shown by the instructors is excellent. This place already has a strong community vibe that grows each time a new member joins. Training at SQ has become a daily ritual that takes me away from the stresses of the world and I always leave feeling like I’ve accomplished something with my day. The food and coffee is also top notch and delivered in a very cool setting. Anyone thinking of training here shouldn’t hesitate.

Positive experience: Great coffee & danish. Gym area looks amazing, lots of space for classes & a fantastic choice of equipment

Fantastic experience: Great place, great people and great gym!
