    Kiddie room
    Liberity B.

    Great place to bring the kids to burn some time and energy; although I would recommend older school age children over toddlers. We came shortly after they opened and there was hardly anyone here which was actually a plus; my 3&1 yr olds just kinda ran around but my older kiddos would've loved it! Price wise it was reasonable (we only paid for the play maze, no games) and they do have a "kiddie room" upstairs. We've been to similar places before and I gave this 4stars because the layout made it very hard to keep up with my youngest two. The kiddie area is located directly at the top of a VERY LARGE set of stairs (abt 20steps) with NO GATE OR DOOR!? Its pretty much 4 merry-go-round style rides (good luck if you get motion sickness), a ridable/drivable bus & a small slide (all automatic, padded & musical) surrounded by glass on 2 sides; it all looks appealing but not very practical for small uncoordinated toddlers who slip & fall over everywhere. It would've been a nightmare had we brought our whole crew or came on a busy day (family of 6), I couldn't imagine hosting a party!? I would recommend lockers or cubbies for storing personally items, tables and seating is limited and heavy coats, bags, shoes etc get VERY HEAVY to carry around.

    Bowling! at Going Bonkers.

    Great time! Loved that the play part was see through so you can see your kiddos where they are!

    My grandsons had a wonderful time. I just wish there was a one price to cover games and playing on the equipment.

    Cool old school vibe arcade spot. My sister took me here when I came to visit for the weekend. I…read morehad a great time! Pin ball and Mario kart were my favorite. A lot of games to choose from and everything we played worked which was nice. I did think some of the games were repetitive but maybe if you're into arcade games you know the difference. They also have a room inside for movies and a big screen outside on the lawn for movies as well. Bet that's nice in the summer!

This place would benefit greatly from being bigger and more open. The bathrooms were not in good condition and could really use better upkeep. The area with the couch and the computer system that hosts multiple games also needs attention--the table and couch felt very flimsy, and it would be helpful to have clear instructions posted on how to properly use the controls. It would also be nice if they opened a bit earlier. We did enjoy the pinball area across the way, which was much better overall, but even there, a few machines were completely out of order. Overall, it's a fun idea and has charm, but there's definitely room for major improvement in maintenance, space, cleanliness, and functionality. With some updates, this could be a really great spot.

Sadly our guide Macy was less "passionate cave enthusiast" and more "reciting a script she's said a thousand times and stopped listening to herself." I still don't know how this part of Missouri used to be an ocean based on the tour. She gave the exact same intro four separate times. Not because groups were bumping into each other, just straight up robot mode, probably from also trying to work in the photo package pitch every single time. Ask a follow up question and you'd get a shrug dressed up as an answer. A kid asked about a mineral and got a confident "nope, not that" immediately followed by "I'm not really a gem expert," which, ma'am, pick one. Nobody could tell us where all the clay that used to be in the cave went (there's a lot of water now after the excavation), how the bootleggers pulled off their operation, or whether the cave's ever taken earthquake damage. Also they sell alcohol at the gift shop right before you head into a dark cave, which feels like a liability seminar waiting to happen. What indigenous tribe did the skeleton remains belong to? How did you know it was an indigenous person(s)? What is the difference between an arrowhead and a spear, and when did those relics be given to be on display? She said the stairs were built by child labor because there are child sized handprints in the concrete, but provided no evidence of truth or why. Was it his 18 kids? No one knows. At least it was cool inside while the weather was hot outside. The cave has a story to tell. Macy just wasn't the one telling it. Would recommend the cave, would not recommend Macy. She already told us she's had a bad Yelp review, and I'm sad to say I understand why.

    I was in Columbia for a family wedding and Billiards was on the list of recommended restaurants. In…read morethe description and recommendation, it said that the burgers here were a favorite of both groom and bride. Even the grooms father insisted on eating at Billiards whenever he was in town. With all those recommendations, I knew where I was dining my first night in town. I was just a short stroll down from my hotel, so it was easy to get there. Lucky for me, I arrived at the perfect time. Shortly after my arrival, the place filled up. I took a seat at the bar and after reading the menu, I made my choices. For my adult beverage, I chose, Hide Tide a craft beer from the local brewery, Logboat. I also went with the, Logboat Burger. It's a burger served on a pretzel bun, with bacon, jalapeno and a house made Snapper IPA beer cheese. I had them hold the tomato. Their fries are fresh cut from Idaho potatoes and they are hand cut according to the menu. Fresh fries are the best. My bartender/server was attentive and it was fun watching the cooks prepare all the burgers on a grill directly behind the bar. The bar is very casual, and it's exactly what Professor Hill was singing about in, Music Man. All burger lovers have to stop by Billiards and enjoy one of the best, if not the best burger in Columbia.
