    Ace museum. But head up to the Top Deck bar and order a cappuccino. Loving the Tube roundel-shaped sprinklings on top.

    Would ask for refund if I had payed the £15 entry fee. SCREAMING children running everywhere, not a museum, just a kids funfair. The FREE Science Museum is far superior.

    I had high hopes for this, but it seemed like a random collection of things displayed in a relatively small space.
