The huge bronze head outside is perfect for kids to play on.
University of WestminsterMay 23, 2011Discounted entry for students but free entry to the shop and cafe!
Dmitri SFebruary 24, 2013The only thing that had something to do with design was the shop in lobby. Anything else — arty-crafty out-of-date crap.
Matt CantySeptember 12, 2015No free exhibitions but we went to see the Design Awards 2015 which was worth the money.
Ben MartinekSeptember 11, 2013I hate to be a negative Nancy, but it's kind of underwhelming compared to New York Design Museum.
Vuk TrifkovicApril 4, 2010Skim side room of Adjaye's "Urban Africa" to spend more time in the central room with the large projections...
Dave NattrissOctober 8, 2009Lesser known museum, great current exhibition about the last 40 years of design in the UK.
Twitter@Getyourshare1April 19, 2013Very disappointed when there is this little to see they should make it free to see.
Alma BecirovicFebruary 25, 2013Not worth £12. Cluttered, old fashioned layout, very dark. Lack of care and eye for detail. Needs a lot of work. Looks great outside though.

- СергейFebruary 17, 2013Какой-то странный музей дизайна. Хотя вот интересная деталь. Дизайн купюры 500 Евро, точная копия моста на о. Русский, т.е. наоборот!

"In my recent visit, I discovered the keepers house - an area with quiet bars and limited-access gardens. A lovely end to my visit."

"Excellent exhibitions of the Royal Collection--thought through and well presented. You can convert your ticket into an annual pass, which is well worth it."

"A lovely gallery. Temporary exhibitions change frequently and you can always go back for the permanent one. Absolutely favourite! It is not free though."

"Queues move quickly. Very cool glass walkway and experience in general, but there are better views from other locations."

"Went to see the infinity rooms and absolutely blown away. I always love the Tate Modern, it's always a place where I can destress and enjoy the arts and ambience."
