Its has been years since I was at it (20+)
I have 3 young boys and I am trying to plan a day away. Is it any good and is it expensive. Any good places to eat near by.

Be prepared to walk a lot of hills!! Bring plenty of water, hat sunscreen.......

Was in it the other week, £12 for an adult 
Was OK, bit steep but didn't really mind, don't go on a bank holiday as it will be jammed with screaming children (my ultimate fear), try and pick a quiet day, although that will be hard now that the summer holidays have begun

The Chester and the Landsdowne Hotel also close by for food.

You could take in Belfast castle and Cavehill country park while you're there - though there's more of those hills MR2 mentioned

Dublin Zoo is a different class if it isn't too far out of the way, been to both a few times the past few years and a lot more enjoyable in Dublin.  Accessibility to toilets, food and enclosure visibility is far better too.

I called in with my youngest a couple of months ago. Was £8 odd for me and jr, being under 5 was free. (prob dearer alright in the peak season)We were in pretty early, 10ish and nearly had the run of the place to ourselves. Wee bite to eat in the cafe. Is hilly alright but good craic running down the hills :-)

Yea I have heard Dublin zoo is good. Never thought of Tayto park, will look at that.

The Cavehill Adventure Playground is on the Antrim Rd as well, closer into Belfast than the zoo, my nephews used to enjoy that.

North Belfast is terrible for decent places to eat - best to head for city centre.

Yip if your kids are 4 or 5 + Tayto park is brilliant.

Have heard loads of ones complaining in work that it is a rip off (imagine that in the south  due to them going expecting everything included in the ticket price only to be hit with further charges for rides etc.

If your childer are very young, they'll find the hilliness tough in the heat. But the experience beyond that is good - there'll always be some beast to look at no matter where you are. There's a McDonalds up the road.

Tayto Park - I thought it was shite, but maybe picked a bad time.
