I came here for mini golf and was very disappointed with my experience. It looks nothing like the pictures that the establishment posted on Google. The water was not on and there were a lot of cracks and worn patches all over. Overall just poorly maintained and felt like a waste of money.
We had my son's 10th birthday here (today). We were a little bummed the weather wasn't nice enough to do the outside stuff but the inside was still worth it. All the kids loved the climbing stuff and the arcades, the pizza was devoured and the ice cream was good. Very laid back and unrushed. There was only 1 guy working and 3 parties going on. He had his work cut out for him, he was so nice and pleasant. I'm 9 months pregnant and was a bit snappy when we first got there, he was still so kind. Highly recomme
Spent a good amount of money on dinner only to get it home and the chicken wings were not fully cooked inside. I called and the girl took my name and phone number for owner to call me back but no call the next morning as she said he would then I called back leaving another message for the owner still have not received a phone call I'm very upset my daughter didn't get to eat that night because of her wings not cooked we're quite red inside is 8 months pregnant. The wings sit in my fridge and we have picture
Excellent all the way around, so much more than a restaraunt. It's a Midwest resort minus the hotel. Trifecta of mini gulf, go carts and ice cream. But there's more. The go carts have multiple tracks, there's and arcade, and there's a bounce house. Plus they have 2hr wristbands. I mean I feel like there's even more but I can't remember. Great job all the staff.
Used to go here all the time when I was a teenager so it was nice to go back. The food was solid and prices were very reasonable. We also played miniature golf ?? and it was the most challenging course I think I have ever played! Lots of fun and very well-decorated. Definitely recommend if you're in the area.
Been going here for 30 years. Obvious that none of their proceeds go back into the business, go carts break down, building and grounds in disrepair. Bought the wrist band for 20 bucks per person. For that 20 bucks I got one and a half of a ride on a gocart that broke down and 10 holes of mini golf on a poorly maintained 50+ year old dilapidated course. With a little rehab and maintenance, this place could be really great again.
Me and my friend went to the arcade while it was downpouring, we didn't check when the place would be open so we didn't know they didn't open for rainy days, but the owner/manager saw us outside and opened the arcade for us and let us played for as long as we wanted! Probably the best customer service I've ever experienced, and an incredibly nice guy! Arcade is awesome too!
This is an awesome place. I love that there's so many different things to do here. We drive by this place all the time and never realize that all of this stuff sits behind the main building. It wasn't busy at all, it's pretty spacious and there is a lot of seating. There was a bounce house, and what looked to me like an old school McDonald's play place in the back part of the arcade complete with a ball pit. They have batting cages, go-kart track, miniature golf, arcade, and food. I will definitely go b
Stopped here for lunch. Great cheeseburgers and hots. Reasonable prices and friendly staff. Amazing ice cream and very family friendly place
We had so much fun going to Minnehan's we went in Sunday when you pay $18 for 2 hours of fun this included the batting cages, put out, and go karts. After our 2 hours we each had a meal at the restaurant. I was honestly surprised how reasonable and good the food was. Topped off the day with an ice cream and the ice cream we're huge!! This is such a nice place located out in the middle of nowhere!! I highly recommend to anyone looking to have a fun afternoon.
I may be bias because this is one of the few places i have fond memories as a child but im 36 and me and my 8 year old love it. The staff is wonderful, the food is great and the icecream slaps. Gokarts are a blast at any age and even though i suck at minigolf i still have fun. Last time we were there we got 2000 tickets in the arcade and we whooped some punk kids but driving doubles in the gokarts. 10 outa 10 would recomend.
Ordered a turkey club my toast was burnt my turkey was dry and burned when it wasn't supposed to be heated up was missing rolls and Coleslaw went in and they made me pay for what was missing for my meal spent 60 dollars and nothing is even worth 10 dollars terrible will never go back I rather go to a homeless shelter for better food
My son insisted I leave this review. He ate all of his dinner and says it's the best restaurant in the world! We will be back!!??
We just went to use the batting cages. They have not been maintained and some of them were not even wired to work. Liked this place when my son was little. Too bad they are not taking care of it.
I have so much fun every time I visit minnehans! Great place for family and have fun. The mini golf is one of the best courses they have!
What a great spot for everyone! My Grandson first time on the gocarts and he LOVED it!! Going back for his Birthday with a couple of buddies!!
Nice place to play mini golf go cart. Good food good prices
We liked going here while on our vacation with the girls. They were enforcing inside and outside COVID precautions. They have a wide variety of things to do with kids, you can go-kart (they have one for little ones too which is great!), mini golf or batting cages. Inside arcade games you can win tickets to get prizes, the kids will entertain themselves. Right next door on the parking lot they have a restaurant where you can buy food and water too and some tables to sit and eat.
Foods decent but the place needs some updates. Been going here since I was a kid (30+years) and nothing much had changed.
Don't book birthday party's here they will have 4 party's booked the same day and have no ac on the side the party's on its was blistering and crowded do to overbooking for 200 plus dollars they should make it rentable for a single party and inform you if there gonna be more party's going on
Birthday party... It was ?? ?? hot..no ac on that side of building. Kids had a good time thou. They are in need of help like every other place. We stayed for dinner burger was "well"
It was a great time at minnehans for sure! Not too expensive and the golf was challenging! The go carts are a blast. Resuraunt on site for good burgers and fries
I'm always very satisfied with their food. Tonight, I ordered 2 fish fry's, and they were delicious, and the french fries were excellent. Highly recommended. And the grandkids love to go crazy in the arcade and driving the go carts.
Went here for a kid?s birthday but definitely found fun for all ages.
The employee that helped us today @ Minnehan's Restaurant and Fun Center deserves a day off with pay!!! :) 5 ????'s A++ at Minnehan's today. Thank you Minnehan's for hiring such an amazing person!!! Davin Bonner loved it and will definitely be back!!!!! My son is just learning how to walk again after an accident. We weren't sure if he'd be able to do the go karts. The gentleman that helped him went above and beyond to help him. Thank you for an amazing day.
Great place to get away for a few hours with the family. Went on a Super Sunday and got more than our money's worth for attractions. Bathrooms could use some updating and better lighting but not a deal breaker. Little bit of a musty smell near the ball crawl area/ bounce house. Wide selection of food & ice cream and all responsibly priced. Between attractions and food kept it under $100 for a family of 5 (2 adults, 2 teenagers and a toddler)
It was my first time stopping in and l like it very much. Great service and food
A nice resturant close to Canisius lake and our favorite place to stop for ice cream. Dining in is available as well as out door seatinwith many menu items to choose from. We dined inside and I ordered the red oiser roast beef with fries. A nice helping of fries and the sandwich was generously loaded with beef. Delicious. The inside resturant area was clean as well as the restrooms.seems like an addition is being built because construction was going on while we were there. Handicap accessibility
It was our first time visiting this restaurant. It was definitely fast service. There were many food options available, and it was very busy. The menu was on a board above the order counter & I found it difficult to read as I was moving constantly to avoid other customers. We ordered #1) a Philly steak sandwich. It was good but very messy to eat. Lots of napkins were needed. #2) a red hot dog. It was smaller than I expected. There were all the regular toppings on another counter. Personally, I found it crun
Nice place for mini golf and indoor arcade/ bounce house fun zone. The kids love it so there is something to do rain or shine. Food is decent- typical burger type place. Ice cream was great with a great selection.
Went to go get ice cream and it was good. Friendly fast service.
Nothing special. Very reasonable prices. The side dining room floor definitely needed some cleaning.
Always have great food and service! Fun for all ages!
I'm been going to Minnehan's for the past 30+ years and rarely had a negative experience. They are a family oriented, fun environment with many things to do. I personally love the mini golf and the chicken fingers with fries. They also offer a day full of go-karts, batting cages, and arcades with a large selection of ice creams to top it off. It is my go-to spot for a fun evening with friends and family.
Wonderful food and great atmosphere when it comes to the games and amenities. The dining room on the other hand needs attention with a thorough cleaning. Sticky tables and floors along with dirty window sills. A woman's touch would be nice.
Well it's a burger joint so it's hard to give any burger joint five stars. And service was better than good so there's that. And no one really goes there for the atmosphere, although it does have a great vibe. And that's why Minnehan's gets five stars. This is definitely a case of the whole being greater than the sum of the parts. My cheeseburger on a roll with extra cheese and onion rings done extra crispy were beautiful. Toppings over there on the counter. OG style. That's all I have to say about that.
The food was decent. I remember Minnehan's being way better when I was a kid but maybe that's because I had considerably lower expectations. My kids had the chicken fingers and fries and they both gobbled it right up. I had a buffalo chicken wrap and it was just okay. There wasn't much chicken in it and it wasn't wrapped tightly so when it was cut in half, it was a mess everywhere. I would recommend leaving wraps whole OR wrapping them a bit tighter. The chicken wasn't really tossed very well in the buffalo
I use to come here when I was a child. It's very cool to see the place is still here, and I'm able to bring my daughter now. Had a blast will be back! Mini golf is very fun and unique
The dinner was so much more than I expected. Wanted a quick pickup after work. I will be doing that more often. Didn't think of this place as somewhere to stop for actual dinners not just a quick burger. Honestly, Just thought of it as somewhere to take kids to ride go-karts and have fun. But the food was excellent. I got the turkey dinner special. It even came with pumpkin pie. It was a full dinner with cranberry sauce.
Great fun all around!! Chicken fingers were amazing along with the battered fries!!!
Came here for a car show it's alot to do an the food is good an decent price
Diner style food. Nothing fancy. We enjoyed it. The seating was a bit off but it worked out. Place was packed. It was Friday night though. We didn't get to do anything else like go carting because of rain but we enjoyed it. Nice to see so many young people working and being responsible.
So much fun. Miniature Golf on a pretty tough course but still got a hole in one or two. Go cart rides were fast and worth the price we paid. Don't forget the hamburgers and ice cream at the restaurant. All in all the perfect afternoon.
Everything I've tried has been consistently good. Beef on weck was exceptional! Many different flavors of ice cream and custard are all great too. Very reasonably priced!
This is for the manager or owners. I was here at 7:45 on Wednesday, 25 September. I was standing at the front of the line when a family of four also came up behind me, hoping to order some ice creams. The girls behind the window definitely seen that we were there but completely ignored us. The gentleman behind me had to slide the window back slightly and asked if they were closed to which one of the girls replied yes. I guess all common decency is gone nowadays.
Fun place to take the kids. There is something for everyone. Batting cages from slow pitch softball to baseball, mini-golf, multiple go-kart tracks and an arcade. The prize selection is limited, but the fun is playing the games.
Absolute blast. Rained at first so we played in the arcade and earned a bunch of tokens then rode go karts. 3 stages of carts. There are 2 seaters so the little ones can ride with you which is amazing
To be fair, there was 1 person preparing the food during dinner hour on a cruise night...which was lack luster. I wasn't expecting Gourmet for my roast beef sandwich but I wasn't expecting overcooked to the point where there was no flavor. My husband ordered a chicken sandwich and got roast beef. We didn't say anything because I felt bad for the girl preparing all of that food. We actually went for the cruise night and they had us Park on gravel because they were lining the parking lot at that moment inste
Good place but worker at go carts saw my height and told me no
Great place to go have fun and forget about life for a little while. Lots of fun for the whole family. One of the best mini golf courses around! Go carts were lots of fun and the food was good
Fun and addictive games, but the food wasn't great. To tier service though and the folks working there genuinely care about ensuring the kids all have a good time
Tge shrip was not cooked it was still frozen brought it back to them thay put it back in the fyer and burned it the other time i went me and my granddaughter got a sausage sandwich it waspink took it back to them and that said that was the colorwe did not eat it i think thay are doing to much to fast but i will not go back
Tuesday afternoon, waited 20 minutes at an empty counter to play mini golf. There was a line of about 15 people when we left, even though someone went up to the restaurant to get some attention. No one showed after 20 minutes so we left. This despite seeing other workers all around. Not great.
Great deals on Sundays , Wednesdays and Fridays! Unlimited carts,mini golf, bounce house and play place. Inexpensive fun and food!
Best local place for the Littles! And great prices too!
We had my son?s seventh birthday party there. We did it all and had a fantastic time. The staff was great. They went above and beyond to be helpful .
It's the perfect little diner for you to stop by, came for the go carts and Got food before hand. Best burger I ever had. The staff where super Freindly and welcoming too
Great place to get something to eat. Good fish fries, and roast beef sandwiches. Ice cream is also good, Mark and Tim work real hard to keep things affordable for their customers. They really care about the customers. Well worth the stop if you are in the area and hungry. Prices are affordable also. Thank you
This is such a great place. The food has always been great. Usually I get yhe garbage plate which s very good, spicy. I never wood have thought my wife would get spaghetti and I would get the ribs. I've been to a lot of BBQ places, theses were top 5 best ribs. You won't be disappointed!!!!
I remember this fun little getaway spot from when I was a kid offers small amusement fun go-karts, mini golf, arcade games...the diner is basic food is ok for what you pay for it but the part that made me give 2 stars the ice cream I took my kids for ice cream order a milkshake it had no flavor and was like drinking straight milk kinda disappointed forward ahead 3 weeks decided let's give them another try order a watermelon frozen custard it tasted like straight cleaner no watermelon flavor made sick took i
Decent place if you have no where else to go. It's dysfunctional to say the least. The arcade machines are a rip if your child is trying to get tickets to buy something for example my olds spund the wheel of fortune and It landed on 40 and the machine gave him 15 tickets then we spun again and landed on 15 and it spit out 30 tickets and one more spin for good measure and it landed on 30 and it pushed out 10 tickets. Some machines were set up so even if you accomplished your goal you still had to pay another
The food is good and the fun is even better. They have go karts for kids up to adults. The little karts are by height so my 4 yr old was able to drive. Theyre pretty slow and safe. They have a nice sized arcade and play house inside and the mini golf is decent. They also have time slots for wrist band access so you can ride carts for almost two hours then grab stuff for mini golf before your band expires.
I went with a group of 7 and we had a fabulous time for an adult birthday party.
Not much to say about the food. $10 for a scoop of boxed mac and cheese and some fries... Pretty disappointing. Honestly thought they gave me the kids meal. No real vegetarian options to speak of. It's 2023 and it's not super difficult to keep some veggie burgers on hand, or to make a pan of mac and cheese from scratch. Arcade, go karts, and mini golf are all fine, just wat before you go.
An average fast food / diner like experience. Very friendly staff. The highlights here are the custom Ice Cream which has great variety and awesome if a summer day with Mini golf and games.
I have nothing bad to say about this place. Went for my birthday and had a cheeseburger meal prices are reasonable had custard ice cream and played mini golf . They have mini gocarts laser tag game room. So there's fun for everyone I go here every year.
We went for lunch after a ln afternoon of kayaking on conesus lake. Many of the specials listed were out. There is so much confusion about what foods you have, they are literally listed on the board above, flat on the counter, on the post next to the register, etc. The tables were not cleaned the bug light on the trash can was full. I used to like coming here, but it needs to have some much needed updated and organized menu item's
The service was good, The food was good and it felt very welcoming.
It was a great time of fun activities for my nephew. The go-karts were his favorite. He enjoyed the arcade and jungle gym also. The ball pit was a little smelly though. I thought the activities were reasonably priced. However, I wouldn't eat at the restaurant again. It took a full hour for all our food plus the communication of the cashiers was poor and confusing. The food is overpriced and they messed up our order and were not very helpful to make it right. Also, since when are cheese steaks made of slice
Very very reasonable prices. Cooked well, consistent. Activities which are fun. Interior is dated and dirty, but for the price it can't be beat. Large selection of food. Great summer stop. After reply from restaurant, will plan to revisit to view renovations and update spring of 2022! How exciting!
Been going here since I was a kid and so much of it has stayed the same and I just love that. Ice cream year round, good food. Love the fun center as well.
Unique combination of attractions in the region, miniature golf, go-karts batting cages, arcade.
Great fun for variety of ages- from little kids to adults. For my son's birthday party, the management was very easy to work with and the price was great. We've had 4 b-day parties there for our kiddos and will probably have more. Only downside is the indoor play area could use a bit of sprucing up and tidying up... especially from the point of view of the younger kids that climb and play on/in it. Still a solid 4-star rating!!!
Great place for families for a few hours. There are plenty of indoor games that require tokens, and you'll get a ticket ( similiar to Chuck E Cheese) and then select a prize at the end. Go Carts are for adults and children. Children under 52" have their own race track ( a simple circle, age appropriate). Batting cage requires tokens as well, but miniature golf has a set fee. Simple place to entertain kids for a couple of hours. The food is typical burger, fries, hot dogs, and ice cream. Outside: go carts, b
Went for ice cream. 1st was standing there to make sure that my card went through but no one coul0d be bothered to ask if we needed anything as they looked right at us. The watermelon soft serve I was given was in a half broken cone that you couldn't miss along with the fact it tasted like spoiled milk didn't even bother to say anything since the children "working" were to busy chatting and not paying attention to customers. Local place we won't come back to again.
My grandson had his birthday party here, and it was fantastic! The girl working was great with helping the kids pick their prizes, and made sure we had everything we needed for our party! The kids loved the go-karts too. We always have a good time at Minnehan?s, and we will for sure be back next year.
My family and I had a great time here! The fun center had so many things to do and was not crowded. The go karting was a blast and the mini golf holes were all creatively themed and wonderfully challenging. There is so much charm and whimsy in this place!
Always loved this place, but if your kids were here playing Saturday June 8th check them. As all three of mine are now home with hand foot mouth virus
I love this place. Food is great. Icecream is so yummy. They have a really fun miniature golf which we really enjoyed. I believe they had other fun things to do but we didn't look into that. So I can't speak to any of that. The seating area could be better but we just ate in our car and frequently order food to go. I'm so thankful there is a good family place like this around. Choices of restaurants around here is terrible. This is the best one and good prices too. Honestly, if you arent familiar with the
Had a great time. Go karts are well maintained. Food was great. Finished off the night with some ice cream. Would highly recommend.
Today 3/17/22 I ordered 4 Corn Beef & Cabbage meals to take and distribute to elderly friends. The wait was short the Staff was beyond friendly & Kind and the food was delicious. I live 2 minutes away and I will definitely eat there again !!! With the economy being so bad and gasoline prices and other prices on the rise I'd recommend Minnehans to everyone I know, great time, wonderful service, great food at a fair price!!!! Thank you everyone ( I can't wait to try the ice cream )
Attractions need work. Still fun, good ice cream at good prices! Miniture golf is rough, but still very unique.
Old school gas go-carts with gas engines. Twin carts to take kids with you around the track. Staff was friendly, pizza was good. Was a good time for kids party and wasn't ridiculously priced.
A great stop when you're looking to entertain the kids and get a bite to eat. Not sure how often the indoor play area gets a thorough cleaning, but the go carts are fun. There's also an arcade, batting cages, and miniature golf. The menu has a good amount of variety for a burgers and hots place. They have ice cream, and frozen custard is available during the summer months. Worth the trip, especially if your kids need to burn some energy.
I have been to Minnehans on multiple occasions over the years. For the most part they do a very good job, but tonight was exceptionally poor. The food was average at best and the service was very slow on the restaurant side of the room. They seem very disjointed and their staffing allocation seemed imbalanced. We had a 20 minute wait for food, and the restaurant wasn't very crowded. When the food did arrive the fries were soggy and lukewarm, as was the rest of the meal. My wife had never been there, so
Great place for kids to go let off some steam. They have a little bit of something for all ages.
Always have a great time with family from miniature golf to go carts to the arcade room
The staff did a great job hosting my son's birthday party and frequently checked in on us to see if we needed anything or had any questions. I liked that I could pick the order of the events and was not held to a specific schedule. The kids were exhausted when we left, job well done!! Great party packages at a great price!!
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.”
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.
