What parents say
"I’m incredibly disappointed with our experience at Family Fun Center. We spent nearly $300 expecting a full day of entertainment, but instead were met with a series of letdowns and a clear lack of organization. Several key attractions were unavailable or non-functional, with no clear communication beforehand. Many arcade games were out of order, the batting cages were shut down (with only a small sign posted on the door), and the bowling center was closed over 30 minutes before the posted closing time. Perhaps most frustrating, we waited for someone to staff the laser tag area for more than h"

"This was our first time here and we had a very good time on a Friday afternoon. The spring unlimited pass worked wonders for our family. You may have to wait for some of the rides as the attendants won’t be present and the swipe machine is really bad. Most of the times, I had to ask the attendants to swipe for me and saw them struggling as well."

"I’ve been to this place a few times and I really enjoyed this place, my favorite part is probably the animatronics and games. The staff is also super nice and extremely welcoming, the food was good too! I’m definitely hoping to come back for another visit !"
