Fantastic experience: We're tenants of BLOCK and this week gathered 50 of our colleagues from across the country for an event in Plymouth. Georgia and Lizzie were so helpful in assisting us with preparations and very patient as we made some last minute changes! They were attentive and efficient throughout the day and helped make it a great success. Thank you so much!!

Fantastic experience: We (Ward Williams) have organised a two day event at Block Plymouth and from the very early stages of planning, up to the delivery, we had an incredible experience. Georgia was very patient and listened to all our ideas and queries and has delivered above and beyond expectations. This was not our first collaboration with Block Plymouth and we highly recommend them for any event/meeting.

Thanks for your review, however this is not the BLOCK Gym Business account. I can however give some feedback to your review... Unlike most gym facilities we do not operate a volume business model, our prices are slightly higher than your average 24/7 gym, however, our members have the confidence that we cap our public memberships to ensure a good workout upon every visit, even at peak times. We will never oversell memberships, therefore the number of benches, and range of equipment has been carefully chosen and installed to give our members the best experience without the normal issues or waiting long periods for certain machines to become available. Thank you again for taking the time to write this review. I can see you do this regularly, even reviewing Plymouth's local parks and post offices - you're practically a local guide! We'll be looking through your many reviews to get some hot tips on local eateries/ places to go! Keep up the good work!

Fantastic experience: I’ve recently taken up a co-working space here and can’t recommend Block enough. It’s a fantastic working environment, with plenty of light and space, and great views of RWY and the water. There are also tea and coffee facilities in the space, with several eating options nearby in the yard. The team are super-friendly and take a pride in making this a great place to work. Pricing is also very competitive and includes gym membership. Highly recommended

Thank you for your review Ian - really appreciate you taking the time to write this. We're so glad you enjoyed the comedy night here at BLOCK! We appreciate that as it was a pop-up bar, we didn't have as much selection as our usual bar on-site. However we're looking to change the menu for the next weekend of comedy and include more options. Thanks again for your feedback and hope to see you here at BLOCK again soon!

Fantastic experience: A massive thank you to Georgia and everyone who stepped in last minute to save my daughter’s 5th birthday party. Not the usual function for such an impressive space but it worked out perfectly on so many levels. All staff were incredibly accommodating - generous with their time and allowing us free rein over two rooms. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect solution to what could have been an absolute nightmare. The aesthetic of the building is striking and the setting is stunning. Even the coffee cups from the cafe are worth noting. The cafe is worth a visit alone, easily one of the nicest coffees in Plymouth. I will be telling everyone about our experience and hope BLOCK and all staff get the recognition they deserve.

Negative experience: This place has such a cool vibe aesthetically, I was eager to visit after finding it online. When me and my partner visited there was no friendly welcome, one worded answers to our questions and a really frosty vibe from the staff member who greeted us. It was Friday evening so we were looking to have a relaxed drink after dinner. When we arrived we sat down and was looking at the drinks menu trying to find the cocktails (there was no 'hey guys, are you looking to get some cocktails this evening?') After looking for longer than we should've, she asked if we wanted the cocktails menu, she then went to the cupboard to get it (why wasn't this on the side already, as this is advertised as a vibrant cocktail bar?) After looking, I asked the lady if they had a coffee based cocktail (like an espresso Martini). She said to us is it on the menu? I said i dont think so, She then picked up the menu, looked at it, looked back as us and said if it's not on the menu then no (all said with an attitude). I'm happy to try different cocktails but there was no questions on what we like and no recommendations. She then asked if this was all we were going to be ordering (all were going to be ordering? - wow), if so she would ask her boss. She left to ask her boss and we decided to leave after feeling so uncomfortable (we felt like a burden being in there, which is shocking). There was not even the very basic level of service, let alone what you would expect in a place that seems like it wants to be creative, cool and a comfortable vibe.

Hi, thank you for visiting and for taking the time to write a review. We’re so sorry to learn that we’ve not delivered on expectations. That relaxed cocktail after or before dinner is exactly what we excel in providing! Unfortunately, we’d had a problem in our kitchen on that evening, and so the person who should have been on hand to make cocktails was upstairs prepping food. What we should have done was explain that; all we needed were five minutes, and we’d have been delighted to show you our craft cocktail skills. In fact, our cocktail menu centres around the ethos that at least one ingredient is hand-made by us in our bar! Could you please kindly email [email protected] so that we can invite you back to enjoy the real Block experience on a complementary basis? We’d really like to show you how great our bar menu is, and would love for you to be able to add that experience to your review. Please do get in touch, as we’ll be very relieved to have the opportunity be able to address our mistake. Kindest regards James F+B Manager, BLOCK Plymouth
