Absolutely a fun place to visit! Definitely do the Whirlyball, we laughed so much. Jen the event manager was wonderful with helping me get everything booked for our group. All the staff the day of were also wonderful and helped make our day fun!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with kids aged 8 and up who can handle the bumper car format independently. Laser tag suits a wider age range. The WhirlyBall courts are the most unique draw and generate the most laughs for mixed-age groups.

I thought the email communication was terrible. Way too much information not pertaining to my event/reservation. The BEO and contracts where not easy to read/navigate, and next steps were not clearly laid out. The space was dingy, it felt very dirty the entire time. Our event had an 18% service charge with no acutal server checking in with us. We checked in at the front, they pointed to a table, set the food out and never saw them again. The food was sub par, our referee was impossible to hear even before the cars were moving, unprofessional with an airpod in his ear the whole time, and seemed like he couldn't care less we were there. We are the type of group to hang out and drink afterwards, but once our game was over we all wanted to get out of there. The only positive I can share about my experience here is that the activity was a blast, Whirlyball was incredibly exciting, hilarious, and overall fun (even with broken equipment).
