I've used Family Fun Zone for multiple events. Birthday parties, fundraising for PTO, private Girl Scout party, etc. The kids always have a great time! The food is standard, not bad.
We just had a private party at family fun zone for my son?s 5th birthday! We added on the catering trays and oh my goodness was everything so delicious! The staff met all of mine and my guests needs, everything was efficient, clean and the staff were on it!! Thank you family fun zone for making his birthday so memorable! P.S the funnel cake fries are to die for!! This is our SECOND year hosting a private party here because how much we loved it!!
This place truly lives up to its name a perfect family fun. I hosted a private birthday party for my kids and it was just perfect. The staff was extremely helpful, friendly and kind. All the kids and parents that were there enjoyed themselves.
Shout out to the FFZ crew that works my daughters birthday party tonight. They were all amazing and really accommodating on all of our needs. It was a fantastic party and we will definitely be back for future parties.
For the 3rd year in a row, Family Fun Zone hosted us for a school fundraiser. Such a fun and easy way to raise money. They take care of all the work. The staff is very kind and helpful. 100% recommend!
I booked a private party rental for my daughters 12th birthday party, everything felt well organized and the staff was very helpful and answered any questions I had during my party as well as checked in on how everything was and if we needed anything, it was a great experience and everyone who attended the party had a blast highly recommend.
Very nice place. It was clean and the entire staff was excellent. It was a great experience. At 46 years old, it definitely brought of the child in me. Now it's time for Epsom salt, arnica, and icy hot. ?? Have fun!!
It was super packed for a birthday party we attended last night and super hot. No type of Social Distancing possible. The staff was over it. Please be aware they stop the skating floor a lot I can understand a couple times but they can't shutting it down not sure why. There should be a sign no skates in the game area. A kid ran into myself and my young child. I am just glad she was okay but the carpet isn't for skates and very dangerous attempting this. The parking was insane with the parking on the side bu
Attended a private birthday event here ! The staff was super nice and friendly! Place was clean and the game selection was so fun! I loved the little skate option to go over my toddlers shoes! He had an absolute blast! The piano game was so much fun too! Great selection at the snack bar! Will be back !
Every employee was very nice and respectful. When I did have a few questions they were answered immediately. Everyone had a great time. I appreciate that the manager and employees went above and beyond for us that night. We will be doing another fundraiser before school lets out for the summer. I am grateful for how you guys helped me put our basketball fundraiser together and made it very stress free, as this was my first big fundraiser with our organization. Thank you again for everyone's time that night.
My 5 year old nephew had his birthday party there. Such a great atmosphere with so much to do for the kids. The kids had a blast skating and they make it really easy for the little ones to learn with a type of rolling walker type support. The kids absolutely loved it! The DJ was cool and helpful and enhanced the vibe. They really enjoyed the arcade and games.. so much to do and the employees were so pleasant and helpful. The pizza and slushies.. helped push this experience to the top. Totally recommend.
So much fun but had a very strong odor of the devil's lettuce during our visit. Would definitely go again though
Went here for a birthday party and it was a blast!! So much to do for all ages, even my one year old had such a good time! The roller rink is huge and big enough to accommodate lots of skaters. The food was delicious, so many prizes to choose from, and the staff was excellent! Would love to host a birthday party here for my son in the future!
We always have a great time here. They have the walkers for kids, which is great in helping them feel confident and learn to skate faster.
Parents need to control their kids better. In my opinion the rink is strickly for skaters. Otherwise people can end up causing injuries to others
The place was clean, and every member of the staff was enthusiastic and helpful. The kids had fun on the rink and in the arcade for the full three hour session. Since our little family outing grew by a few guests the day before the event, we booked a walk-in birthday party. Everything from skate rentals to food & drinks went more smoothly than I could have hoped for!!
Recently did a private party here rented the skating rink out for my 8-year-old and 7-year-old's birthdays and had an awesome time! Everyone was super friendly. It was nice that it was only our party. It took the pressure off for us that can't skate!!!! Super fun!
This place is a blast! We go here as a family from time to time, and we always have fun. Had my daughter's 5th birthday party here. The staff was friendly and accommodating, the tables were set up prior to our arrival, anything we may have needed was supplied. Despite the water system maintence, the manager, Josh I believe (sorry if that's wrong), went out of his way to purchase 2 liters and fresh ice for our party. Everyone from 5 to 65 had a great time! Highly recommend
Super fun! Friendly staff. I found the price of rentals reasonable. Did not purchase food, so I can't speak for that.
Had a great fundraiser night. Kids loved it. Lots of fun for all ages!! 10/10 will be doing again.
We had our school field trip here and everything was great!!! Fun had by all our 6th graders.
Wonderful place. Family goes 3-4 times a week. Weekly and daily specials on prices and food. Very friendly staff.
More fun with the arcade. Food and beverages are good and place is clean. Staff are helpful and interact with the kiddos.
Great customer service! Very helpful with all of our needs (school field trip).
Had a BLAST at family fun zone this weekend with my family. The food was awesome & all of the activities for any age along with the roller skating was very accommodating and fun. Would love to host a private event here again in the future.
We took a field trip to Family Fun Zone. The employees were very friendly and personable and everything was clean!
Had my daughters 8th birthday party here and it was great. The staff is very nice, it's a self service party place. The pizza is good(I don't pork) but the family like the sausage and pepperoni. The music is good as well
I was looking for a place for my kids to have fun and found the right one. Family Fun Zone made it a great experience for my family. The place is clean and staff have a positive attitude. I will definitely be visiting Family Fun Zone again. 100% recommended! Thank you Family Fun Zone! ??
Great place to have fun but needs to keep the website updated. This is the second time the website said the?re open and weren't! I've called and wether they are open or closed no one answers the phone as well.
My kids love coming here! It's a great place.
The place is clean, well organized and the staff is really nice! Did a fundraiser here and would recommend
My daughter?s school PTO hosted a fundraiser here & EVERY single staff member we encountered was friendly & helpful. The night was full of smiles & assistance that were very much appreciated. Looking forward to returning!
YESSSSS!!! Had a Halloween blast at Family Fun Zone!! My son Kayden, won a $50 gift card for best costume as the pumpkin head scarecrow for age group 5-15!!!! TONS of candy and toys!!! The GREATEST staff EVER!!! Thank y?all for being EXTREMELY patient and super nice and helpful with Kyrie!!! I believe you all knew him by name before we left ????. We will be doing this again next year
A little tight on space but still had a good time. Don't forget about 2dollar Tuesday
We had my daughters birthday party there yesterday. There was a mistake on the staffs part regarding the time of the party. I called and spoke to Josh. Even though it interrupted the flow of the day, he accommodated the time that we were told! Even though the staff was in their shift change, they still we attentive with everything we needed and we hope they felt the respect and understanding from our end!
Great time with family!! Kids had a blast, food was great, workers friendly, place was very clean!! Look forward to going back!!!
Saturday afternoon we had our fundraiser with our GEMS girls club there at Family Fun Zone. It's always a great experience! The New Games selection is fabulous and the Music was terrific!!???? We've been coming for years and are grateful for the Skating rink and atmosphere. See ya soon!! Thank you for the Family Fun Zone!!
My great niece had a birthday party here today and we had so much fun. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The pizza was excellent and I loved slaying T-reces in the arcade.
Skating was good, pizza was good quality for a skate rink - better than expected. The arcade games were cool and dished out a decent amount of tickets - surprisingly. The issue I have is the staff clearly doesn't care. They completely rip you off on tickets. My son easily got over 300 tickets and she gave him credit for 100. Like, seriously? On top of ripping off both my kids on tickets easily by a couple hundred, she then overcharged me on the prizes when I bought on top of the tickets. I handed her 300 t
I had a recent birthday party for my daughter who turn 8 years old and she loves to roller skate. We had a little over 30 guest and i was just really impressed by the staff and manger . They went above and beyond to make our time as pleasant as possible! The food as well the pizza was really good to our surprise and will definitely recommend this place!
Great Place to take Family!big n clean
What an awesome Easter egg hunt! Thank you for a family fun night.
If someone likes roller skating, this is a good place for adults and children - it's great fun
It's good if you want to skate with family but as a true skater, you won't want to skate here. Sadly the rink floor needs to be redone as it's a little rough. Music choices could be better as some songs are too slow to skate and most key skating classics are not played. What I like though, the arcade being the classic physical Tokens and Tickets, something you don't find often anymore (heard bad things about it though) Overall it's an okay rink, but as a skater enthusiast, I'd pass.
Great place you can get 100 tokens a picture of pop and a large pizza for $30
Me and my family comes here to skate every week. The food is great, the music is great and customer service is always great. Ashanti is alway giving us a friendly welcome and always smile and Josh the owner is always going out of his way to make us feel welcome and accommodated. This is our second home.
Nice ,but small. Still a good had by all .
Recently had my daughters 3rd Birthday party and we had a really nice time. We booked their Minnie Mouse Character and everything exceeded our expectations. The birthday coordinator Evelyn went above and beyond to make our daughters birthday party Perfect. They were more than accommodating and I highly recommend for birthday parties or just a nice place to take the kiddos. They always have great events going on.
Visited with the family and what a great experience. Was kind of skeptical since we live in Chicago and my 2 kids are 2.5yrs old. But once we got there, not a single regret. Kids had so much fun skating around and playing games. Kids wanted to stay longer because they were about to start cosmic skating (lights dimmed and black lights on) but we were already there for hours. I always know if its a place to re-visit if within minutes on the way home, the kids are passed out because of how much fun they
A very welcoming place. All the employees I interacted with were very kind, understanding and great with kids! The music choice is kind of like snippets of songs trending on tiktok, so if you don't like that, maybe bring some earbuds. But the place itself is dimly lit, which helps with sensory overload. Fyi, if you leave and come back between the shift change (or just in general) you'll have to pay again. Bathroom is spacious, if you're worried about that. I greatly appreciate the employee who helped me ska
Like the scenery, everyone is helpful, kind, & in peace with each other, & my kids love going there! It's a fun & cool place to go to!
The staff is pretty good, everyone is friendly and the staff on the rink floor are aware and helpful to the kids, definitely recommend.
Great place to take the kids there's video games and roller sharing and a snack bar.
I took my kids to have good day today being in new school year just something to get out free there minds I have 20 year old about two be 21 and her friend that is also almost 21 has son 3 and I have 19 son and his girlfriend 20 and my friend was there to 37 years old I went outside to smoke my vape was told if I go back out I will be charged a fee every time I go out I wasn't doing nothing wrong also was told I can't leave my kids in there alone first off all the ones I just said are over 18 then I have on
We had a birthday party over the weekend at this location and cound not be more happy. All the kids and adults had a great time!! The party plater with the cheese sticks is a must. The staff was very friendly and some of the adults told me they will be looking to have birthdays at this location. We will be back soon!!! Thanks again too everyone working sunday.
Had a good time for my son's 9th birthday. Everything was clean and organized, and the staff was helpful. We'll definitely be back.
The kids loved it, glad they make it fun for the littles too
My family loves $2 Tuesdays!
Nice time at my 11 year old grand-daughter's birthday party. They turned off the pizza oven way too soon & the ticket redeem machine was not working. Otherwise would have been 4 or 5 stars
I took my grandkids ?? they had a blast ??
It's an older place that's rough around the edges, but the staff was great. The pizza is as basic as it gets, although the kids don't seem to mind. The family had fun in this zone.
The employees here are very nice. Kudos to them for making the fun even better with their sweetness
Family fun zone is one of those where you can go to have and just hangout. When I first went there which was when I was a kid, it made me find a fun hobby. The skating rink is decent size they have a pretty big arcade and the workers are always welcoming. The pizza is pretty good if I do say so myself. Definitely would say give it a try if you haven't already.
Roller skates, arcade, and pizza... like, come on... this is literally the place to be for the big kid in me. The family always has a good time here! Thanks for helping us in building our fond memories ?? ??.
Fun, loud, and entertaining. The kids loved it.
First time customers here and the place was alright. It was clean and had lots of seating which isn't always the case and the staff was very friendly. The music was good and the rink was a pretty good size but I did notice it had some bumpy and uneven spots and I wasn't a huge fan of the fact that you had to step down onto the rink especially with a 4 year old who was using the skate buddy. The only reason I probably won't be going back is the price. $11 per person for admission and normal skates (plus an
Nice time with family but its soooo annoying they will stop the music the last hour several times to announce they are closing instead of letting you enjoy the money you spent to skate. It makes you wanna just pack up and leave not only do they say it several times the last hour they repeat it twice each time, sooo annoying annoying annoying annoying please stop this people this place is to expensive to be hearing we closings in 1 hour a hundred times before closing!!!! I know y?all want people out at the t
Came here for a school sponsored event. The price was great. The staff was helpful in getting the correct size skates. The food was ok, typical of diner style food. The pizza was a big hit. The arcade area was nice for a break from skating. They also have laser tag, though we didn't do that. It was also nice that for the last hour they let the kids dance on the floor.
Friendly staff, reasonable prices. They did our twin boys 5th birthday. The party coordinator was attentive and kind. We had the best day!
Had my granddaughters 15th birthday there,the girls really seemed to enjoy themselves. Happy with the experience.
Great family fun weekend or weekday activity. Affordable prices staff are young and nice. Decent music, and a ton of games.
It was really fun. It was a bit odd though that the parking lot was not plowed...and they could've used more workers. But when we got there we didn't want to wait for another hour to play Lazer tag so they were kind enough to let just the 4 of us play. Overall, amazing experience
Seems like an awesome place, skating was good, laser tag was cool, pizza was good. The arcade was kind of a joke though, quite a few games out of order, like at least 5 or 6. The games in the arcade that were working had a bunch of problems, not giving out tickets, stuck balls, etc. Any problems we had with the machines the workers were coming over and fixing, seeming happy to help, no attitude. Also, not much to pick from for prizes. Overall, would take the kiddos back there, would not spend any money
We continue to go to this place because the kids love to skate and its the closest My son even worked there with the original owners for a while. New management now. They said they cleaned and refreshed place but its still old and run down. The dj booth sucks. The music is so distorted because the speakers are awful. The food is expensive and selection is poor. You can only get cheese or pepperpni pizzas. No other toppings. The girl at the front desk was snippy. Not worth the money. We are done with going
Family Fun Zone is a great place to have a birthday party. All guests had a great time. Staff is courteous and service excellent. Rink is beautiful and games were so much fun. Highly recommend!
Super fun, however. They refused to play Nicki Minaj claiming she is not a great role model for kids, which I wholeheartedly disagree with. Now my bestie is gonna die of cancer. You still get 5 stars though
I have recently had a birthday at Family Fun Zone for my son, and visit here and there. Our girl was very pleasant and did great with our party. The arcade games were not all working. Overall, we will keep continuing to come to Family Fun Zone.
Great place to take the family!! Highly recommend!
Lots of room, fun things to do. Big skating floor, toddler assist skate rails, great for family night
Kids loved it.. everything was nice.
My kid's enjoy skating here but the games are a waste of money. I love the staff they make sure the kids are safe while skating. Food not so great but the place has the potential to be great. Small minor changes like new games and updated menu can make this place awesome. ??
My Grandbaby had a birthday party here and we all had a blast food was great
The new owners need to WAKE up if they want this place to stay open!!!! The music played is NOT family friendly!!! Outside food is forbidden, so if you have a child that cannot medically keep down pizza & dogs your out of luck!!! We haven't had luck w/kids showing up when we purchased a party pa kage & they won't give refunds!!! I wanted to bring in a peanut free, gluten free cake & purchase drinks, slyshies & cotton candy, but management said ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!
14 and 16 year old grandchildren had a good time skating. Games are geared towards younger children. We went on a Thursday when school was out and it was pretty empty. We would definitely go back.
The kids loved it. Not a ton of games but enough to keep non-skaters entertained. The parking was nuts so get to your birthday party on time and hope they've plowed the whole parking lot.
My little cousin's birthday was held here. It was nice. The food was slow but perhaps it was because there were about 3 or 4 parties that day (Sunday the 21st).
Used to love taking my son to this place, that was until I placed my hoodie on a table and picked it up, only to realize that it was destroyed by the bleach they use to clean their tables. When I approached the owner/manager about it, he was careless and basically said it was not his problem. He refused to do anything about it. I will never return here for such a careless staff and management team. The manager could have easily replaced my hoodie, as I have the receipt that proves it was brand new and he wo
I would of gave them an extra star if the manager from Saturday night Feb 24 2018 wasn't such an insensitive jerk. I brought my daughter her to do something different than the usual bounce house indoor play. She is autistic so I never know how she's going to react sometimes. I thought the music was fine but it was hurting her ears.everytime I turned my head someone kept taking our walker that they hold onto when they skate. Finally after getting her skates on and eventually getting our thing back. We tried
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
