Had our daughter’s birthday party here and loved it! The kids had a blast and the party room was a great size with everything we needed. The staff were flexible and very helpful. Will definitely be doing another party here again. For those who aren’t used to animals it will smell like animals in the party room. It didn’t bother us but something to know about a true animal experience.

We enjoy an exciting indoor animal experience perfect for all ages—tickets are just $15! Discover three different areas to explore: one for petting animals, one for reptiles, and one featuring a sloth, scorpions, snakes, frogs, and reptiles. Our star of the show is Black Llama, the mischievous barn leader who watches every guest entering, ready to sneak some veggies from your bucket! Interacting with him (and trying to outsmart him!) is always a highlight. I tried my best so he couldn't see what I was holding, but he followed me until he found out I had carrot on my hand. Super-friendly guinea pig—he especially enjoys the soft parts of lettuce. Parrot said hi sometimes when he is in a mood.

I don’t usually write reviews, but after my recent experience—and after seeing a previous review—I felt compelled to share my perspective. I hosted a birthday party for my daughter with 11 attendees, including adults, and it was absolutely worth it. For $350, we got 90 minutes in the party room where we opened presents, had lunch, and enjoyed cake. Afterward, we had full access to the main room with the animals until closing time. I was impressed that, even though we had fewer guests, they provided the full 15 buckets of food instead of just 11. This allowed the kids to feed the animals more, which they absolutely loved. The staff was incredibly friendly and wonderful to work with, making the experience even better. While $350 might seem like a lot, when I consider the time we spent there and the joy it brought everyone, it felt very reasonable. I’m not from a wealthy household—I’m a single-income family—but knowing how much my daughter wanted her party here, I started planning and budgeting five months in advance. I highly recommend this venue, even if your party is on the smaller side. The experience is well worth it!

We just had the most amazing birthday party at The Big Red Barn! It went so well I had to write a review IMMEDIATELY to share with the world. We celebrated my daughter’s 8th birthday with all our family and friends and our package came with 15 food buckets to feed all the happy lil animals they had. The employees were so welcoming in decorating the room so I had very minimal decorations to add. They got her roses for the table with a cute happy birthday balloon and let her pick out a birthday stuffie at the end of the day. It truly was magical. Thank you everyone at big red barn for all your help and hosting one of the most epic birthday parties ever.

Our family had so much fun at Big Red’s Barn! The animals were so friendly and very clearly well taken care of. The entire building was incredibly clean and organized. All of the staff that we interacted with were incredibly helpful and pleasant to talk with. We will definitely come back in the future!
