Today we had my Sons birthday party and it went amazing! We were able to show up early and they had the room decorated. This is a great plaice where you want a fun party with minimal set up from you. Stephanie did a great job confirming our date and answering my questions. Sophia our host was great keeping us on time, checking with the guests as they arrived and cleaning up after us. The pizza they order from was also fantastic. We will definitely be back.

My kids and I recently visited Go Play, a massive indoor playground designed for kids and toddlers, and we had a fantastic time! This was our first visit, and from the moment we walked in, we were impressed. One unique feature that sets Go Play apart is that they allow parents to join in the fun and play alongside their children. This is something we haven't experienced at other playgrounds and it truly enhances the family bonding experience. I felt welcomed and excited to participate in all the activities with my little ones. Upon arrival, we were asked to fill out a waiver, which was a smooth and straightforward process. It’s a smart approach to ensure everyone's safety and accountability. The playground itself is a wonderland for children, filled with slides, mazes, soft play areas, and various fun activities. The facility is clean and well-maintained, which is always a priority for us. Despite the crowd, likely due to the rainy weather outside, the staff managed everything efficiently and the place never felt overwhelming. The pricing is reasonable, making it an affordable option for families looking to spend quality time together. We found the value to be excellent given the variety of play structures and the overall positive experience. While it was a bit crowded during our visit, it didn't detract from the fun we had. The kids were thrilled and we all left with smiles on our faces. In summary, Go Play is a fantastic indoor playground that offers a safe, clean, and engaging environment for children and parents alike. We will definitely be returning if we ever come back to the atea and highly recommend it to other families looking for a fun day out.

Very upsetting experience. I usually never post a bad review, but I felt this was necessary for safety purposes. The side /back door wasn’t locked and an alarm didn’t sound when my son tried going out into the parking lot . Very scary experience, if the front is monitored so should the back be . Even though there is a sign on the door saying the alarm will sound, it didn’t . The staff were not apologetic about it or anything. Our first time here , and last . GoPlay please do better . If I could give zero stars to leave a review I would . Edit: No the alarm did not sound , The staff had to hold the door down until they got the alarm to start working apparently. All the parents were shocked that the door was able to open without an alarm not just me, and I was supervising my child which is why I was able to grab him before completely escaping. The point is , the alarm didn’t sound the staff were rude , not apologetic or sincere. They had to hold the door down (which is essentially locking it) . Iam very considerate when leaving a review for a small business (I have worked at an indoor play place that was a small businesses owner) however, this needed to be addressed and handled properly and it just wasn’t .

Brought my kids here for the first time and honestly loved it! There’s a bunch of tables adults can sit on while they go play or you can even join them in the jungle gym because it’s big enough. I went during the week one afternoon so not too busy. I def will be going during a workday soon! Very clean, friendly staff, great snacks and also good pizza spots not far away like Socrates 100% recommended. The best thing is that you can bring in your own food and drinks.

Ive been here twice with a 3 year old and i plan to come all winter. For less than 20 dollars, my child never runs out of places to explore inside. There are areas where she is in her comfort zone that are perfect for her age and other areas for older kids that she can go over and challenge herself on. The best part is that no one cares that we bring our own juices and water bottles and a bag of snacks from home. Its hard to get physical activity once it gets colder outside and this is a great way to get some playground energy out this winter. Even with the place booked to capacity, we still found a table to leave our snacks at and to rest at when needed.
