I'm going to rhino boulder almost every day, it's my favourite place in Bromley! They have unlimited treats and everyone pets me. I had the best birthday party ever over there too!

My daughter plus a couple of her friends are members. After finishing the school term for Christmas, we thought we’d go and get a nice Saturday climb in, great physical workout and does wonders for overall mental health. Walked in and was told there is an event going on, £20 per ticket to attend. Was slightly taken aback by this, but ok, no worries. Two gents in reception advised the event runs until 5pm, the gym is then open for us to return and climb. Killed a couple of hours, came back and a lady at reception said sorry, no, tickets only!! Gym is closed for general climbing! Communication around this has been poor with members of staff providing conflicting information. Overall, the team do a great job here and my daughter has found an out of school activity she enjoys. However, as a member, this experience has left a sour taste in the mouth.

Easily one of the best gyms in London in my opinion. So much effort is put into the route setting and it really shows, and the holds are not slathered in grease and chalk like some other gyms. The community is welcoming and the staff are fantastic. The coffee is also *chefs kiss*

Absolutely fantastic place. As an absolute newbie, I came to do there in intro session to see if this was something that I would enjoy. I had such a fun time, the staff was so supportive and I really felt like I was able to learn in a nonjudgemental environment. It didn’t matter that I wasn’t able to do everything, but I was able to give stuff a try and that was so helpful. I absolutely recommend this place, truly such a great community has formed and I only wish I’d found it sooner.

Spacious climbing area, lots of open space on the mats for chilling. Setting was great, lots of variety of wall profiles- mainly overhang. The grading system is unique but makes use of all the different hold types 👌👌 Shop area is stocked with only Scarpa shoes atm. No training boards but apparently will have a spray wall in the future. Gym area to open this month too. Cafe is cozy, but doesn't sell any recovery drinks or sports drinks. Defo will come back, worth a visit.

FAQ

Still confused? Here is some demystifying wisdom!

All classes or activities, must be booked in advance, but if you just want to come climbing independently, feel free to turn up at your leisure during our opening hours

Everyone wishing to climb or supervise must follow our standard registration process which includes watching our induction video and filling our a registration form. It’s quick and easy to do so and you can pre-register online to save time when you arrive.

Absolutely! Everyone at Rhino was a first timer at some point, and we’re always excited to welcome new climbers. Our space is designed to be beginner-friendly, and our community is genuinely supportive—no pressure, no judgment. Whether you’re figuring it out or just here to have a go, you’ll fit right in. And if you need help, our team’s always around.

Not at all. Many people climb solo and love it—it’s their time to focus, unwind, and move mindfully. But if you’re keen to meet others, Rhino’s the perfect place. Our community is friendly and open, and we run regular Adult Social and Women’s+ Social nights designed for exactly that. Whether you want company or quiet, you’ll feel right at home.

You don’t need to be super fit or strong to get going! We have over 200 boulder problems throughout the centre ranging in difficulty, so there’s something for everyone regardless of your level of experience, that’s the beauty of climbing!

If you’re keen to avoid the busier periods, we recommend visiting on weekday mornings or early afternoons—especially before 4pm. Weekends and evenings tend to be more popular, but there’s always space to find your own pace. And if you’ve got any questions while you’re here, our staff are always happy to help.

Boulder problems are colour coded routes to guide you up the wall and elicit specific climbing movement. These vary in difficulty (or grades) and are carefully designed by our route setters to be challenging and fun!

We use our own grading system. See the grade conversion charts in our centre for comparison to Font or V grades!

No! We also have a warming café where you can sit comfortably and enjoy snacks & drinks (and beer!) when you are not climbing! You are also welcome to bring your laptop and do any work in there as we have a fully setup CoWorking space with meeting rooms and phone booths! We have an equipped gym and offer training workshops too.

Our memberships are for anyone that wants to climb with us on a more regular basis. With our memberships, you gain unlimited access to our centre and also save yourself a pretty penny!
We have 1 Year Memberships or a Rolling Monthly Membership for those wanting more flexibility.

Not only that but you also get 2 guest passes a month, to use these you will need to bring a friend who has never climbed at Rhino before.
