Customer Reviews

We had our daughter's birthday here Saturday. The customer service throughout was wonderful. The manager on duty all the way to the snack bar crew were kind, sincere, and helpful. She and her friends had a fantastic time. Can't wait to go back when the bumper boats are open in May.

A Truly Incredible Experience ? Thanks to Gabe! I don't normally write reviews, but after our visit to the arcade, I felt compelled to share what an incredible difference Gabe made. From the moment we walked in, Gabe made us feel welcome?not just as customers, but like we were part of something special. He went out of his way to ensure everyone was having a great time. Whether it was helping a child with a broken token machine, cheering someone on during a tough game, or making sure the place was spotless

Very happy with our 1st visit!!! The staff was amazing. We had a great time. Arcade was half price from 4-7pm & this made it way more fun because you get to play more games. Thanks for showing my Grandson a great time! We will be back& we live 50 miles away! ?????? oh yeah, make sure you take towels& wear your swim suit if paying for outdoor activities because you will get soaked on the water ride& activities. ????

We stumbled across this place in our search for something fun to do that wasn't too expensive and fairly close to home. WOW! What a cool find! We got the wristbands and the refillable game card. It was so much fun! Played several games of putt putt, rode go-karts, played every game and had a very reasonably priced lunch. Highly recommend the fries!! Crispy and well seasoned! Next time we'll bring the grandkids!

We have an autistic toddler and he loves the 2-person go karts and the inflatables area! I'm especially thankful for the lack of music and attached bathroom in the inflatables area. It's a perfect environment for him and there usually aren't more than a few kids so it's pretty calm. Plus everything seemed clean. Employees were generally helpful and friendly. There seems to be plenty of activities for older kids too, but we had a great time with our 4 yr old.

My daughter and I visited this place a week ago. It's just something to do because it had been raining here so much, and it was a nice day and we got out and and decided on this place. She had a good time, drove the go-karts and we played Putt-Putt and she played a few games inside. They also have bumper boats and a few other attractions as well. However, we did not partake in any of those activities.

My grandson's 3rd birthday party was here and all the kids and adults had a wonderful time. Him and I returned now that he is 10 and there are even more things to do. This place is good for family fun, friends hanging out, dating, or just an outing alone. Plus they have adult beverages which is a plus in my book!

My kids absolutely love this place. 4 kids had a blast for hours for $100. Definitely not something we can afford every week but it's a fun treat. We'll definitely be back.

We came from South America Carolina to celebrate my twin grandsons birthday. They couldn't wait to ride go carts. I paid for all us. When I bought tickets not at one time did she tell us it would be a 1hr. Wait cause a birthday party had Track reserved. Which turn into 2hr. Before they got to ride. At one time the boys were so disappointed and refused to ride any other rides. I spent over 400. For a nightmare. They were also short handed and 3 of the rides were not able to be operated. Please ask how many

I love it here. The all day pass is about $43 each with the online discount. Sounds pricey but it includes go-kart, mini go-kart, bumper cars, bumper boats, rock climb, spider wall climb, riding the tornado, water wars (so much fun), mini golf, and 2 rounds of laser tag. Unlimited rides on all of those except the laser tag PLUS unlimited arcade games. We were there 5 hours and the kids loved every minute of it. It's not that busy so we were able to do all the attractions multiple times. Already planning ou

Great place for kids!! The staff was so helpful and accommodating when we arrived. I highly recommend Funopolis to anyone that is looking for a lot of fun at a very reasonable price. Thank you to all that made our trip so much fun!

Funopolis is where the fun begins and never ends - LITERALLY (well, almost because we know every business has its closing time). The first time I visited I felt a bit weird and thought "wait, I'm 30 years old and these are games for kids" ... WRONG! After a little hesitating start I just started playing the Kung-Fu Panda game and it was so much fun that I played it for a few rounds. Afterwards I tried one game after the other, the euphoria kicked in and I felt like a little child on a playground again. I c

This is a great place to have family fun. You have it all in one place (go-karts laser-tag, mini golf, etc.), and the unlimited wristband is an awesome deal! Food was not that good, but the rides make up for it. Staff was very friendly and accommodating! Kids of various ages (11-15) enjoyed it very much!

Our family had an amazing time at funopolis! The staff was so polite and fun(shout out to Tyson, thanks for being so respectful and awesome ??). The attractions were entertaining, my kids favorites were Lazer tag, rock climbing, spider crawl and the bumper cars. My husband's favorite by far was the go karts and my favorite was the bowling game arcade. I would recommend the all day pass cause you will definitely want to be there more than 3 hours! Oh and bring extra clothes because they do have water games a

I have a wonderful time at Funopolis during ESP Summer Camp 2023! The Go Karts were so much fun! I love playing the arcade games! They also have good food such as hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken fingers and nachos. The service was great and the staff were friendly! Laser Tag was also lots of fun!

Went on a field trip here. All the rides are fun but do not eat the pizza. It made our whole class sick on the 45 min bus ride back.

Great fun for all. A very reasonable prices for food and games. The kids wanted for nothing all day. Highly recommend this place. Customer service was amazing, and very clean and up to covid-19 standards

Something for all ages at a wide price range.... arcade games, go karts, mini golf, bumper boats, Tornado amusement ride, laser tag, rock wall, Bouncy House starting at $5 and more.... even a small 3- person merry-go-round for $.50. While individual activities quickly add up, they do have wrist bands available that include a variety of activities for a more economical price.

I've been here a few times before and have loved it but today I took my nonverbal autistic girlie for her birthday with her little sister and couldn't have asked for a better time. The staff is so friendly and accommodating!! No complaints - we were there 3 hours and I had a $100 funopolis card and left with almost half my money left even though we did so much, which is cool because whatever you have left on your card you can use again a different time. I can't recommend this enough. Staff if you're reading

Best birthday party! So patient with our autistic baby boy nephew. Even though he's 14 now, he'll always be our baby ??!

We had so much fun at funopolis. We played arcade games, basketball, bumper cars, connect 4, wheel of fortune, whammy, make it bounce, and we did two rounds of mini bowling. We got the $25 package and we had over three hours of fun! Well worth it can't wait to go back in the near future. The staff was also amazing very helpful and kind.

We celebrated my sons 5th birthday here, it was nice and big, but cleaning was not done so well in rooms 3 & 4, after sitting on one of the benches and pulling my foot out there was a massive piece of cake stuck to my shoe, and we hadn't even done cake or anything yet. The table where we put the cake was dirty, had previous cake icing on it. We had less than expected people show, and our party director was wayyy too overwhelmed, she kept going back to the manager but at that point the manager should have ju

Great places for kids birthday party! Great deal on different days! Many things to do! Recommend for family or couples. Fun time!

I had a delightful time. Just as fun for kids as it is for the young at heart. I got last place in Lazer Tag :)

Arcades, Go Karts, Mini Golf, there's so much to do for kids, teenagers, and adults. Took my kid here a few times and recently had a birthday party here. The staff is very polite and helpful. We played games, ate pizza, and everything in between. Would recommend for a fun day out

Took my granddaughter and her friend,both are 15yrs of age the had a great time , they had a game of Lazer tag, bumper cars, go carts, putt put golf, escape room (you need to let them know 24hrs before you come in for that) we will be going back. all kinds of arcade games. You could waste a hold day there

Welp. Paid $100 for my 2 boys to have the all day pass. Half of the no ticket games don't work, 2 or the 4 mini bowling lanes don't work, the twister is out of order, no one is manning the mini go carts or the pirate ship so we had to hunt someone down to let the little one ride them (the looked like the were closed down also bc no one is working at them so my son was the only one on them... so that was boring.) Got here at 11:30, and the first lazertag hours are 3:30 and 4:00. Please don't waste your money

Greens where nice. Its early so no water and things like that running, which is understandable. Lady that checked us in was nice.

I had a wonderful time coming here with my sorority sisters! We all had a blast playing arcade games, going on rides, and playing laser tag. I absolutely LOVED the laser tag set up, it was my favorite part of the entire excursion. The place was well maintained and clean, plus the staff were exceptionally nice!! My only complaint would be how pricey the all inclusive tickets are. This makes it difficult for me to come more often and enjoy the same things I did the first time.

The pictures look better than the place does in person. Workers will argue about doing their job in front of customers and then be visibly annoyed when they have to actually work. The games are overpriced and not at all worth it. It's the only thing around without driving too far which is why I'm assuming they have business at all. The pizzas sit under a warmer after being cooked so they aren't even fresh. Overall disappointed with the visit considering how much it costs.

If you're looking for somewhere fun to take your family, this is it! Our kids loved it ??

Great experience! The go-karts and laser tag were fun. Would go again.

I took my sister and two nephews here, on Tuesday. I purchased a play card, with $80 loaded to it. We had a blast! We were able to play just about every game in/outside of the facility. The staff were attentive and polite. The facility is older, but well maintained. I really feel like, I got my money's worth and more. I will definitely be returning.

Was fun for the family and we had a great day just was to much money. I spent about 400$ for the day for 2 adults 2 kids with the family pass for 4 and stopping for gas and lunch before we got there. With that kind of price tag we won't be back.

We went to a friend?s kids birthday party and had a lot of fun. There was bowling, go carts, video games, air jockey, rock climbing and more. This place brought me back to my childhood, even the adults had fun. The prices were fair so I don't understand the negative reviews about them. There is a happy hour during the week where everything is half off if you are looking to save money. The staff is very accommodating. It's a big place so difficult to have coverage at every station, but they make every eff

Love this place!! I just had my daughters 5th birthday party here, and it was so much fun! The staff were very attentive and the price was surprisingly reasonable!

I just went their last weekend and it was the best arcade ever. The staff wasn't too ignorant but wasn't too in our business. It has many games and fun activities including: Golf, fruit ninja, subway surfers, hungry hippos etc. BEST ARCADE HANDS DOWN

Love the arcade is affordable and lets the kids get alot of value and games. Mini golf is fantastic! Fun for a family outing.

My son jad an awesome 10th birthday with all his buddies!

Great place for family fun. Great prices on games and mini golf. Tons of things to do.

We had a blast here! Laser tag and games were awesome, no TVs huge crowd to deal with, staff was friendly and the pizza was decent!

It's an amazing place, and even though it died off, as it was almost completely empty, the staff were very nice. They have multiple other activities other than arcade, including bumper cars, Lazer tag, go karts, mini go karts, and other things. If you want a nostalgic feel, then Funopolis is the place!

Had an amazing time there! The staff was very polite and helpful. Plenty to do and a very clean environment. I loved every minute there!!!!

Clean, friendly, and decent game prices overall.

Funopolis was exactly what the name says....it was without a doubt one of the best places to take your family, even a place to visit with friends. Between the normal arcade games up to virtual reality. The Lazer tag was the most fun for my boys so we're the go karts. They also have inflatable sections for the littles across from the Lazer tag room! It's very convenient for families that have different aged children like myself!

We had my son's 6th birthday here and EllaMae made it so special. She played games with my two boys while we waited for guests to arrive. She's excellent at keeping kids entertained! Once the party started everything flowed well and went extremely smooth. Laser tag was a blast! And a bit of a workout surprisingly lol. The pizza and veggie platter were delicious too! All around, this place, staff and all the attractions are a 10/10!

We took our grandchildren ( 12 and 8)to Funopolis and they had a great experience. The staff was so patient as we'd never been before and required some information. The staff was helpful and answered all our questions. The entire place was clean and the bathrooms were especially clean. All the attendants operating the rides were helpful and courteous. Upon checking out the young woman that assisted us brought to our attention a stuffed animal our grandson has won, had a logo good for additional redemption

We had a great time with our 11 year old grandson!! Pricing was very reasonable!

Great environment for kids Great games and rides the only downfall is that it seems they might need more personal some employees were running more than one ride and you had to wait for them to get done with one so you could ride a ride

Grandkids had a blast here clean and good food at snack bar

Funopolis is fun for the whole family. I've had several birthday parties here for my kids and a girls group event. The staff is amazing and so are the owners. You will definitely need to try the food when you visit!

So as much as all the adults wanted to love this place it just wasn't happening. The kids seemed to have some fun although they were bummed about a good bit of it. It has went downhill over the years and is very very understaffed. Although the staff was overworked l, most (not all) were friendly and helpful. There is really nothing for anyone under 40 inches to do there but the bounce house room and it is $7 a person. Even if you pay for a Key to the City package (Pricey) you do not get access to the boun

The games and vending machines kept taking my money three times on the foot dancing game for kids and twice on the outside vending machine. But other than being cheated outta like 20 bucks the kids had a blast. Y'all need better more experienced hosts for the party room. Her inexperience made my grand daughter have to open presents outside.

The kids had fun the staff was nice and helpful

Great Experience! The staff especially, Sydney, she was so friendly and helpful. Initially I was a little hesitant coming here after reading some of the reviews, but our experience has been phenomenal. The staff was great, all the rides and games were working for us, and most importantly, my 4 year Granddaughter and her family and friends enjoyed themselves. This was worth our 2 hour drive from the Airport. I highly recommend this place!

I had my daughter's 8th birthday party here this past weekend (February, 2022). From booking it to the actual party, I'd have to say i am very pleased with the experience. After booking online, they followed up with me a couple of times by phone. During the party, they were attentive and friendly. As we wrapped up in the party room, they were patient and didn't rush me out of there even though I know they had another party booked right after. There is no shortage of activities for the kids to do there. We d

Went to spend time with the wife as our first vacation we went to an arcade in the same vein this in Asheville. That being said I cannot recommend this place 1/2 of the machines were broken or impossible to play do to some control being not calibrated. The entire putt putt was covered in orb weaver spiders literally had to clear 15 of the putting greens just to walk continue play. Not to mention many of the putt putt wholes had damage and was in ill state of repair. Go-Karts kept breaking down while we wat

So much fun!!! Something for just about everyone! Small enough to not be overwhelming but big enough to stay busy for a bit! Laser tag! Bowling! Arcade! Rides! Climbing!

Great place for kids and adults too. My son and great niece had a lot of fun there. They really enjoyed the bowling there.

Went there today for my sister's friends birthday party. It was amazing! There was this really sweet person at the counter who complimented my outfit and was very helpful. Just wish I got her number lol

Love it. Enjoy the pics of fun they offer.

I loved it so much! It was really fun, I enjoyed it the go karts were lots of fun! But there was one thing that I kinda didint like which was the prices of the beverages. And one thing that happened is I lost my glasses on the boat bumpers ?? but they found them within 3 days! Which is a lifesaver so I would totally recommend to come here with your family!

Wow!!!! Me & my five little girls LOVED this place tonight. I had interactions with Mr. Brent (which I believe is the owner) and he gave hands down excellent service to my family. I asked for suggestions on playing the games and attractions, and he took over and helped me set a game plan to insure the girls got to have lots of fun & also to make sure it was less overwhelming for me, since it was just me with five little girls and my husband wasn't there. They have all the latest and most state of the art g

We had such a fun day here! It was a bargain for all we could do. And the food prices were very reasonable and tasted great. The bathrooms were so clean!!

Before heading over to funopolis I checked their fb page and also their website and no where did it show there would be a private party the week of May 20th. Upon walking in I'm approached by someone wearing a funopolis staff tag and was ask if I was with the school. I replied no, she (the staff member) then informs me they would not be open until 12 to the public. I in turn ask why that wasn't on any of their sites.... she says... it is. Unless I'm blind there is nothing there at all. will we go back, ye

We had a blast so many different things to do our daughter loved it definitely recommend

Funnopolis it's a great place to take your kids for a fun afternoon. We have been going there for over 12 yrs now, we had celebrated birthdays and its always fun, but it hasn't chance much. Same attractions for over a decade I would highly recommend the owners for an upgrade. Again we always enjoy the time we spend there as a family. And maybe more activities for the very little ones.

This was my first visit here, but my autistic nephew had been here a while back and talked about it a lot. So I decided to surprise him, and boy was he happy! They had added quite a few things over the years, so we were impressed. You pick the ticket package you want and they give you a card loaded with that dollar value. Then you just swipe your card at each game. They had The Walking Dead video game, which my nephew fell in love with and played many times. He also loved their mini bowling alley and played

Where to begin. My daughter had 2 birthday parties here for her son and daughter. She paid for top Entertainment only to be ask to pay 7 per child for the jump house and also you guys should offer something for the attractions that are closed due to being winter months. The employees acted miserable which refected the service that was given. I would never book a party here and I'm sure my daughter feels the same. Also your claw machines are not carrying any marked blue balls.. Thanks for ruining my grands

This is one of my childhood favorite places to visit, and I recently got to go again. Funopolis was always the first place I would want to go for my birthday, and it was always a good time. For my most recent birthday, I decided to take a few of my friends there for one last trip. It was definitely worth it. Funopolis is an arcade/laser tag arena/bowling alley/go cart track/mini golf course, which means there's always something to do. In fact, there's even more that I haven't mentioned here. I'm going to

Nice to have a place that the kids can play. The staff was helpful, and considering the weather it was pretty well kept. Of course there's always one person that takes their job to seriously, but other than that it was great.

This place was alot of fun. My boyfriend and I had a day date here. We played mini golf, mini bowling and go carts for the price of some places just for one round of golf. Amazing price! Super clean bathrooms and arcade area. Very happy we made the trip up here.

Fun for the whole family. My only complaint is I really wanted a hot pink cat ring. We spent over $100 dollars there they could have easily given it to me but chose not to. Also, my brother got cut and was bleeding from an exposed nail.

This place is fun. They've done a little updating, but could use a bit more. My kids have fun, so I definitely recommend checking it out.

Lesson learned?. We're in the process of selling our house. Our daughter turned three and having her party at home was not an option. We chose funopolis last minute. The party rooms are SMALL even for 15 people. Host was quiet not entertaining. The kids were given color book pages to keep the occupied ?.. ?? one pizza and some coke that the carbonation wasn't working on? my child was bored during her party. The 30 mins in the bounce houses was all she enjoyed. I do not recommend this place for birthday par

Paid for 5 wrist bands and 3 of the attractions were open for my kids to play. The kitchen closes at 7 and the outside games close 30 minutes before closing oh AND about 15 minutes or so before closing they shut the games off so don't come in the evenings. Wasted my money for sure!

The family four pack is a JOKE. There wasn't enough things that was open or included in this pack.We definitely will not be back.For 180 dollars,you should expect things to be run a lot better.Highly recommend to not ever go there.

Great time for the whole family, as long as you're willing to spend the money. The wrist band which gives you 3.5 hours of unlimited attractions is the way to go. We just had a birthday party ther,Not quite worth the money we spent but we did have a great time. Zack, our party host was awesome! He made sure the kids had a memorable experience

Very nice facility. Great indoor arcade. The positive part of the review stops there. Management of this facility is lacking. The park was not staffed accordingly. When we arrived they had 4 employees to cover the entire facility. Employees also had poor attitudes mainly because they had to cover multiple areas. The go kart guy covered putt putt, and bumper boats. Food court was an absolute joke. The employees where not trained to prepare food or even take an order correctly. It took over 20 minutes to

My grandson had his birthday party there. It was really fun.

We came here on Saturday for my sons birthday and they had THE BEST TIME! It wasn't packed at all, the boys got to ride the go-karts a million times with pretty much no wait! My favorite part was laser tag....i scored #1! We will definitely be back for the haunted house...just me and the hubs this time! P.S. thank you for having clean bathrooms and sanitizing and also going the extra mile to do temp checks

We went for New Year's day and had a Blast!

Our overall experience was amazing! Summer was the absolute best employee by far! She was super fun and definitely shot positive vibes our way every time we saw her! She was like our own tour guide around the place! It was great! Will be back!

Had a party for my nephew here. The attendants were suppose to help with the party. The lady kept walking out talking to friends, and had to go to front twice. Parents were serving themselves, and very unorganized. Birthday balloons were half blown up & the birthday area was trashy, the decorations looked old and half missing. Don't waste your money on this place. You pay all this money and no help. GO ELSEWHERE!!!!!!!?

Arm bands are hard to purchase on line. Bought the all day arm bands which included the arcade games but found out after my purchase they did not include very many games. Staff was friendly and the place appeared well maintained. My granddaughters had a great time!

After many trips over the past couple of years most of the time I would rate at 4.5 stars. Biggest downfall is staffing shortages. (Walk back to the last place you saw an employee and ask them to have someone sent to the attraction you want to use.) If you have time you want a wrist band for the kids. Plan to be there at least 3 hours a ge let your use out of the pass. No fee to stand back and watch. Bring a change of clothes and do the wet stuff at the end. If it is not a no shoe attraction it is a closed

As Far as things to do I give this place 5 stars. It was my first visit here and the kids were really excited when we arrived I purchased wristbands that gave them access to all attractions I figured we can come back to purchase game cards when they were done with the attractions. Well that went left quickly we my daughter wanted to get on I guess it was a indoor playground bounce house I'm not sure but when she tried to get on she didn't have socks so we were told she needed socks but then we see five othe

It was decent. Clean and friendly environment. Family had fun. You're child must meet a certain height requirement to get on rides. There's only one ride for the ones who don't reach up to 44" on the chart.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s it like visiting an arcade today?

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.

Is it better to go alone or with friends?

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.

What should I bring to an arcade?

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.

What’s the best time to visit an arcade?

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.

Can I meet new people at arcades?

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.

Are arcades still just for kids?

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.

Are there events or tournaments I can join?

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.

What if I’m not great at arcade games?

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.”

Why are arcade prize games so exciting to play?

Arcade prize games are a thrilling highlight in 2025! Claw machines, skee-ball, and ticket-redemption games like basketball offer a rush of skill and chance, with rewards like plushies, toys, or electronics up for grabs. Modern machines feature vibrant lights, digital scoreboards, and responsive controls, amplifying the fun. The lively arcade atmosphere, with cheering crowds and buzzing energy, makes every win feel epic.
