I used to love this place growing up. It was fun to be back there with friends. We visited on a Saturday night and it wasn't too busy at first. The arcade is pretty small, and we didn't get a chance to try the mini bowling since we were at a time crunch. The only negative thing I can say is that you may feel rushed at times if there's a group directly behind you. I wish they could space out the groups so you don't feel so on top of each other.
Very fun filled experience for the whole family! We paid for the golf, bowling, and arcade card and it was well worth it. Everyone enjoyed themselves. Will definitely be back.
It's a fun mini golf place. You can choose to just play mini golf or mini golf and the small arcade area as you enter. We only played minigolf, which was 18 holes. It is somewhat small and compact, and if you are a slow player, a queue will start behind you as more people join. We went at a good time at night and not people were there but after a while more people joined. I'm sure in the height of the afternoon this place gets very busy and loud. The area was clean, but it got warm after a while. You ca
I was tempted to give it four stars bc the arcade is a bit small BUT I've seen smaller and the games they do have are really good ones! Mario Kart, basketball, skeeball. Definitely enough to keep you busy for a few! The mini golf is so well done, the art is amazing & they fit a lot of holes into such a small space. The price is great too. For like $23 my partner and I entertained ourselves for like two hours so well worth stopping in and I'd visit again :) Also I saw they have really cool looking rooms for
Pricing- pretty decent. I paid for two tickets and one of them was discounted because I am a student. It was less than the admission for the child that I brought (which is odd). She was charged as an adult and not a child? Hmm. If the arcade was bigger, I probably would?ve added that on. Atmosphere- it's cool as expected. Seems smaller than it did in the past but probably because I was a child myself. There was a small group (mom and kids) behind us who seemed to be in a rush but I just ignored it. Althou
I absolutely love this place! We celebrated my daughter?s 8th birthday here, and it was an unforgettable experience. The staff were incredibly helpful, ensuring that every detail was perfect. A special thank you to Victoria and her team for making my daughter?s birthday so memorable. We can't wait to return!
This place is super cool and super fun. Such a good time and it's not costly at all. You can enjoy all their activities for one low price. My boyfriend and I go all the time when we want something low key to do.
Victoria and the staff were amazing! They were readily available to answer any questions. All machines worked, fun atmosphere, reasonable packages, ample parking. Fun for all ages (age range were 16-84)
Super fun Been to the location in Pembroke Pines, Florida This location was just as awesome.
Wonderful time here! Staff was super super nice and friendly. Very patient with my kid when he was deciding what toys to get from the video games. My son really enjoyed himself! I didn't let him win at air hockey and he took the defeat pretty well. His mini golf skills are kind of like ice hockey. I'm sorry about him throwing overhand at the skiball that one time (pretty sure it wasn't on purpose), and I still can't get that finger trap off him, but it keeps him from picking his nose. At the end he said ?
Place was really cool inside with the black lights and seeing all the fluorescent colors popping. Thats why it gets 3 stars . Other then that there were a lot of people playing mini golf and people waiting around just to get to the next hole. At one point it was my party and 2 others waiting just to move on. It was extremely hot as well.
A Halloween themed mini golf place. The decor is cool. The course is bit too short and easy. Recommend for k-5th graders. The place has arcade as well. The place has party rooms available. Staffs are friendly and attentive.
Just did my son?s 7th bday here last Saturday. Place was cute and they kept the kids entertained. My host and the reminding of the staff were great! Even tho I was running late it was plenty of time for the party. Adults and kids both had fun! Thank you so much.
Great way to spend the day! Me and my friends went here and had so much fun! Love the retro 80s feel to it. There's mini golf and an arcade here, so you could make a day out of it! Games are fairly priced, as are the prizes.
So much fun!!! Must see!! Bowling, air hockey, arcade, mini golf. This place is the coolest!! Highly recommend checking this place out!!
This is a fun place to spend an afternoon. It is an indoor mini golf course and arcade. We played mini golf and had a nice time. The course was challenging and fun. The monster theme and black lights were different. We had a nice time. I would return.
Fun place for family and friends to enjoy. This is my second location, Fairfield being the first I've ever been too. It's a great location, way less busy than Fairfield, which is a plus. The main difference between the two are that Fairfield has laser tag (more like a laser beam room), meanwhile this location has mini bowling (which I personally prefer). Overall this location is a solid 4 for me simply because I thought the mini arcade here was a little limited, I mean it is mini after all.
Great bang for your dollar. We did a group outing there. There was 5 of us and for about 60 dollars we got a round of mini golf and a 25 dollar arcade card. The mini golf was fun but some areas were super dark and we had to use our phones to find the holes. Not a huge issue. The arcade had some pretty cool games and the 25.00 amongst 5 of us seemed to last forever. Definitely would check it out again.
I visited Monster golf in Paramus , Nj. I have to say it was very nice the monster golfing side of the building. Colors very bright, and vivid. There were two ladies behind the counter upon entering they do a covid questionnaire with you, and check your temperature. That is very helpful. The other side of the building is arcade games which was nice. I thought the staff was friendly and helpful. This is a good place for quarantine fun for kids. The downside I didn't see anyone wiping the arcade machines in
This place was amazing! My boyfriend and our friends reserved a group online and had a blast, DJ Adam was so much fun, and the staff were so friendly and attentive to any random questions about prizes. During Covid times it was very clean with plenty of sterile stations and masks - and it was nice to have a good safe time! I highly recommend this whether or not you have kids just for the experience, it's nice to get out and have a good time and still feel safe. The arcade was a lot of fun to get competitive
Very cool place to visit with family and friends. It's very clean and well maintained. The arcade is also in a good shape , all the machines ar new and working and they have some cool ones like a giant screen pacman.
Visited there for a birthday party and we really enjoyed here with kids . I like this monster theme indoor playground for kids . Bowling ,golf and lots of game for kids . I recommended this place to visit and through birthday parties ??
Such a fun place to spend time with loved ones ?????? especially if you're a fan of spooky things !
Fun but be very patient. Children unsupervised running around, actually disrupting our game by picking up our balls. Staff actually asked if a big child party can cut us because they are getting antsy. Games at the front portion of the room. Hectic at the register. I like they had a large coat rack area but it's unsecured so no valuables.
Really awesome place, and the prices are really great too! The workers are all super bubbly and friendly and I really recommend going here if you want a great mini golf place / arcade to spend some time with friends / family.
Super fun place to play mini golf, the drawings and designs within the place are really really cool. The black light atmosphere is really cool and offers up a lot of pictures. Holes are challenging and not too easy which is a plus. Try to beat the course par if you can.
Had a great time, but it is located in an unmarked 'alleyway' and we had a very difficult time locating it. From the pictures on Groupon, it looked much bigger than what it actually is as well as it is an indoor facility.
Cute little place for the kids. Mini golfing was the best part and the most fun. Downsize was they did not have that many arcade games for the kids and it cost about a 1.00 or even 5-6 depending on the game. Which after a while becomes pricey. Overall decent place for the kids to burn some energy.
Lots of fun, great games, black light mini golf is always a good time. The music is really loud in the golf course area, my friends and I had to yell to hear each other. Otherwise, it's awesome!
Went with a small group of friends and we all had a blast. Without even realizing, we actually spent nearly 3 hours there. We got a bundle deal that included mini golf, bowling and some money for arcade games. My only recommendation is making the mini golf a little more unique. Some holes felt very repetitive.
This place is a great inside place for miniature golf! It's glow in the dark golf! There are also games too you can play and win prizes!
Such a great, hidden gem. We attended a birthday party here and the party staff was so sweet and helpful. They even memorized the kids names which was such a thoughtful detail. My kids loved it here and have talked about it nonstop since we left. My son shown in the photo literally partied himself to sleep. Cant wait to go back!
Amazing themeing, great for monster fans. Walked in the door with a big smile on my face. I was suggested a combo deal which allowed us to do everything for a low price! I even got some t shirts to take home to spread the fun! Gotta check this out, families are welcome here and all ages. Staff were great, and hope to do it again soon!
Always love this place! Lots of fun for kids and adults. There are some monster animatronics, so depending on how frightened your kids tend to get, this may be too scary for ages 6 and below or so. But there's really nothing overly frightening. It's all in-doors. So, perfect fun house for any type of weather. It's got an arcade on one side and mini golf on the other. Fun twists like a spin-the-wheel challenges or sometimes, they'll announce challenges over the loud speaker like, "Everyone's next shot has to
Cute spot and miniature golf was fun an inexpensive. The arcade games is also a nice addition. My only complaint is that it was super hot. They should've had the ac on not sure if they didn't because of covid but it was hot. Other than that would totally recommend.
Had my sons birthday party there and his friend did too. Price was great for what you get. We had out party pre-hours so mostly private and you can bring your own food too in addition to their available menu.
Had a wonderful time here! The minigolf part is so cool! With the glow in the dark and the animatronics ?? whether you're a kid or an adult, you'll have a blast here! There's also a arcade when you walk in and mini bowling!
Took my daughter there.their arcade area is small compared to other arcad es but quality games and the mini golf is awesome.it sucks that you are on top of each other but all in all its fun
We recently celebrated our 8th birthday at Monster Minigolf Paramus NJ and had an exceptional experience. The place is beautifully decorated, impeccably clean, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. I also liked spacious parking lot. I highly recommend this spot for birthday celebrations or as a good place to spend time with kids.
Neat spot for a cheap and cute date. Took my gf here and we really enjoyed ourselves even had a few plays at their arcade. Will come back for another round sometime.
Great spot for a birthday party. Mini golf, arcade games, and party rooms for rent.
This place was great. I was there over the weekend for a kids birthday party. The young man who was in charge of the party was excellent. I forgot his name but he was great. The party ran smoothly and he knew exactly was he was doing and very patient with the kids. The place it self is very spacious and very clean. The staff was excellent. I have been to the Monster golf in Fairfield which is Eh but the one in Paramus is excellent.
Went to my grandson 4TH Birthday party at Monster Mini Golf and it will be one Birthday party to remember!! It was AWESOME!! Staff was great !!
Such a fun time! The kids had a blast. Employees were super friendly and welcoming. Perfect way to stay cool on a hot summer day.
We had my son's 7th birthday party here. It was a great experience. The party host really made him feel special and did a great job organizing the activities. The kids had a great time. The music level made it challenging to hear what the party host was saying at times, but overall it was worth it.
Mini golf here is a good way to waste a little time and have fun. The course was interesting and they played good music. There's a good wait time to get onto the course but they have a bunch of arcade games to play while you wait.
This place I recently went to withy kids for a day out with them and just chill with my wife. I did like the whole monster theme of the place. There was no mind blowing attraction that made this place stand out to me. My kids had fun playing golf but they didn't have food which to be honest is usually overpriced anyway but hey kids get hungry and thirsty fast. The staff was fairly friendly but overall the place seemed a little small for me. It's a good in the middle of the day type of place but not Friday n
The outside looks like an abandoned office but once inside, you'll find a challenging 18 hole course. Great 2 hours of fun
Fun great time definitely recommend bringing the kids or going as a couple
This place is great. So much fun with all the blacklights and neon monsters. Would definitely come back.
Much smaller than we thought, pretty much empty on a Friday night. The lady at the registration desk needs to relax a bit. Overall, won't be coming back, too boring, no food, limited arcade options.
My kids had a great time, nice design, monster?s where cool, arcade was good too, will come back or even set up a party event.
I had my daughter's 4th birthday here over the weekend and I can not tell you how AMAZING the experience was! Jules was such an incrediable host and energetic keeping the attention of the kids, she was paitent and kind, and Victoria was also such an amazing help! She told me I didn't have to worry about anything and she was right! I cant wait until the next party!!
Monster Mini Golf Paramus ? Hole-In-One for Kid?s Birthday Parties! My daughter (7) had her birthday party at Monster Mini Golf Paramus and it was fantastic! As a parent, I have been to more kid?s birthday parties than I care to count, and this one was by far the best and the most organized. Everything was well-thought out, especially the small details. For example, soon after all the kids arrive, they sat down for pizza, and feeding kids at the beginning of a party is such a great idea, as you don't ha
the arcade was small and nowhere to sit and relax while the kids play except for two random chairs right outside the bathroom. The golf course was nice and glow in the dark which of course made it even cooler! We were excited to bowl as well until we saw it was really two mini lanes I would say for ages 3-7 . Overall give it a 3 star some pros and some cons ???????
Came here to play mini golf and some arcade games. While the games were fun and so was mini golf, the issue is with the staff and the kind of people that were there, and I'm guessing always do. Staff were very rude and uncaring and unhelpful. Someone was actually smoking the green stuff in there. The whole place completely reeked of it. This place is mainly for kids and this is what goes on in there. No one even cared, staff did nothing. Besides that, pretty much every adult in the place was horrible and r
Did our daughter's birthday party there. The service was great, and the two young ladies assigned to her birthday room were fantastic. Pizza, cake, arcade time, and mini golf. Group of 8 year olds had alot of fun. Received compliments on the experience and will definitely be spending some more family time there.
Amazing!!! Hosted my son's 9th birthday, and it was worth every penny. Our hostess Angelica was extremely attentive, and she managed every single detail...highly recommend this venue
Stopped by with my husband today and for a while we were the only ones playing mini golf. Loved the music and decorations. The artwork was beautiful. They take your temperature and make you sign a simple covid questionnaire in the beginning. We paid $24 together. I would recommend this place for kids or even adults. It is a fun place to bring a date. We didn't try the arcades but they had a nice selection. Since D&B is still closed it's a nice alternative.
Victoria is absolutely amazing! Great customer service! Made my cousins birthday trip there 1000x better with the way we were greated and the way she helped when the water machine dropped my moms water! It was a great day! Can't wait to come back and visit her!!!
Cool art but very easy courses - definitely great for young kids. The glowing golf balls, pencil, and score sheet are pretty neat too. Each hole is tightly packed next to each other so it's difficult to have multiple groups next to each other because there isn't too much room to stand. Cool place to check out once, but not much replay value is present other than the small arcade offered.
I like going here on my own or with the kids, but the B-day parties feel like they go on a little long. Food, games, food, golf... I'm sure it's good value for the host, but runs for 2+ hours. Better pacing? Smoother transitions? I don't know. Decent experience, but tiring. EDIT: (Response to owner) I don't know if the host knew the time frame. I imagine they did, though. And like I said, I'm not complaining about the content. It just felt like my kid and I were there for a LONG time.
i came here a ton in my summer camps its great
Super neat to bring children or to have a playful date. The mini golf course has about 17 holes so it's a great bang for your buck (super affordable $13 for adults and $13 for children). There is also an arcade area once you walk in with great multi player games. Recommend 10/10
Very fun place to some mini golf and other arcade games there.
I went with my son and my 2 little grandsons. Got the golf, bowling, and arcade package and they had a wonderful time. The little one was scared of the ghouls but, after awhile, enjoyed it. The bathrooms are very clean and smell fresh. Everything is well taken care of and very clean. A trip well worth it .
Small, entertaining and fun. Went with my kids 15 and 10 and had a blast. Mini golf was fun. Took us about 45 minutes to complete. They did a good job separating the groups so we never felt rushed or on top of people. Great family afternoon.
Last Sunday, I had a party for my daughter at this location. This place is great for the children but having a party here is another story. My guests and I really felt rushed. The children still had cake in their mouths and had to move on to the next activity. There was no other party going on before or after my event. Timeframes are understanding but this is a child friendly event and I felt pressured to move the party along as fast as I could. This is unacceptable when paying money for your child to have
This place is a fun environment for anyone, no matter of age. Staff are super friendly and helpful. I did the golf which was in a cool haunted neon setting. I also go the deal with the arcades and they have the best selections for games! Enjoyed it alot! cant wait to go back!
Is a very nice experience. Is fun for all ages at this mini golf. It was my kids first time at monster mini golf, He had a blast. He enjoyed the game and all of the bright monsters through out the course. Once we finished the course, there are some arcade games,hoops, air hockey table, if you want to hang out after. I recommend monster golf. Just keep in mind there is a bit of a pressure (depending on the size of the group) because of the people behind you at the course.
I will recommend this place to anyone that is looking for a "different kind" of kids birthday celebration ?? A lot of fun!
Had my Little's second birthday and between Zainab(my party host) and Veronica, it was theee best night. They were engaging, genuine, just the best. Having the party there was due to a last minute hiccup with our original plans, but turned out to be the best!I worked with Veronica on the phone while trying to book it and coincidentally she happened to be the manager on duty the night of the party. Zainab wasn't even scheduled for work but came in specifically for the party. They were both made family by
My son and I attended his classmate's party there. They had a wonderful time on the golf course as well as in the arcade. I'm definitely looking forward to celebrating a birthday party there or even just a night out with the kids.
From the minute we walked in, we were surrounded by a warm energy! The staff is incredible, especially Kelsey and Haley! I would sell my soul for them, seriously, would trust them with my life. We had such a great time playing mini golf!! Live love monster mini golf <3
Indoor mini golf. The arcade area has the usual array of arcade games. The party rooms give you the space needed for a kid party. The mini golf is fun and the decor is painted to light up under the black lights. If you have a kid afraid of spooky decor then they might not enjoy this. Lots of parking available and staff is friendly and helpful.
Professional staff and cool looking place. Too bad it's not busy as it should be on weekends. Drop by in case they are gone in the future. The artwork on the walls is worth the trip.
went on a Saturday. wasn't too crowded. decent selection of arcade games. friendly staff. course is cute with a nice layout. didn't like that there was a lot of people playing out at once so we either had to wait many times or rush for the group behind us. order a personal pie and it took 20 mins and tasted microwaved. The prizes for the tickets are over priced for the item selection. over its okay the kids still had fun.
VERY BUSY PLACE! Understandably so, it's a great facility. Good variety of arcade games to play while you wait to play your game of mini golf! Their system for giving you a set time to play your game is perfect. The staff working the golf course is also very accommodating and helpful. There was a rather rude woman on the golf course, yelling at my partner and I to "not crowd her" and told us that we were "making her feel rushed." We stood a good couple of steps away, giving as much space as the course let
We held my daughter's Bat Mitzvah party. The staff was helpful and friendly. Really cool glow-in-the-dark Miniature Golf with Horror/Halloween theme (but not really scary for kids). The party rooms were big enough. Staff was incredibly helpful. Highly recommend.
Felt rushed. The staff was nice, helpful, and my daughter had fun.(she's 4) But.... Everything was rush, rush, rush. For what they charge for parties. Crazy!!! Then extra this, and extra that. Don't mind spending money for any of my children's parties. It has to be worth it.
This place is definitely unique. The decorations are awesome and the blacklight effect is done very well. However, the actual mini golf holes are not very good at all. They are simplistic and are all pretty much the same. This place gets very busy too and when that happens, dealing with all of the young kids is pretty brutal.
I had a great time i went once with my guy friend and it was great the theme the lights really cool!! I went the next week with my son and nephew and twin sister they had a blast as well.. staff is friendly and bathrooms were very neat and you know thats important!! Also the person who needs the most practice gets a ticket to come back for free!!
Very funny place! The golf itself is really well done and looks stunning. My only complaint about it is that there are no barriers in between holes, so sometimes other people's golfballs will interfere with your game. The arcade had some really cool games too, although I thought it was a bit small. Really fun place for a date, friends or family! Highly recommend!
We decided to go here to have a small bday celebration last minute and let me tell you how amazing Victoria was!!! From start to finish ,Victoria, was just outstanding! Customer service level 1000! She has the patience of a Saint as well .... my son would not stop bothering her to check his points or transfer them from his brothers card to his(when they have a machine that does that) haha I thank you for making our evening out that much better! Ps.she deserves a RAISE!
The place is small but fun. Main thing is the mini golf but they also got arcade. The only draw back is when it gets busy and you have to wait for people in front to go. Also sometimes little kids or teens just hitting the ball for tik toks or Instagram and slow you down.
I went with my husband. We're both AARP members, so not very young. We had a great time! The mini golf was a lot of fun. Other games are kind of short; kind of a rip-off in my humble opinion. All in all, we really did have a fun time.
We had our sons bday party last week and it was a very bad experience overall. We had the last slot booking considering that we can have room for longer period (which is what they said while booking). So when party started: 1: They did not give us game cards on time and asked us to wait 2: After 10-20 min she asked us to play with game card when i requested her to let us cut cake first she did not allow even after requesting couple of times. 3: After 60 min she asked us to come back for cake cutting and wi
Mini gold was fun. The staff were nice. But it was a crowd to go mini golf. Had to wait behind a bunch of people for your turn. The place is pretty small and not a lot of arcade games.
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.”
Yes, pinball tables in arcades remain a blast. Their hands-on, skill-driven gameplay delivers a thrill digital games can’t match, blending nostalgia with modern flair. Newer tables from Stern and Jersey Jack feature LCD screens and themes like Avengers or Stranger Things, keeping things exciting. Arcades are seeing a pinball resurgence with vibrant scenes and tournaments like IFPA events drawing crowds. Though less common than video games, pinball’s tactile charm and community vibe make it a standout arcade experience in 2025.
Absolutely, retro games in arcades remain a thrilling draw in 2025! Classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Street Fighter II offer simple yet addictive gameplay, blending nostalgia with timeless challenge. Modern arcade cabinets often feature crisp displays and restored controls, enhancing the experience. These games thrive on quick reflexes and strategy, with vibrant pixel art and iconic soundtracks that spark joy. Arcades host tournaments and leaderboards, fostering a lively community. While modern games dominate, retro titles provide a unique, accessible thrill that keeps arcades buzzing.
Yes, virtual reality (VR) games in arcades are a top attraction in 2025! Titles like Beat Saber and Half-Life: Alyx deliver immersive thrills with cutting-edge headsets, motion tracking, and responsive controllers. High-resolution displays and spatial audio create heart-pounding experiences, from slashing rhythms to battling zombies. Arcades feature multiplayer VR zones and tournaments, fostering lively communities. VR booths are regularly packed, proving their captivating, next-level gameplay makes them a must-try arcade experience.
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.
