Came here with family and we had so much fun!! There' was stuff for everyone to do! Great food ! Try the funnel cake fries !! Strawberry frozen margaritas are great for a hot day when golfing! The arcade is so fun and the kids enjoyed the prizes !

Mini golf
Brian F.

Boomers is a classic amusement park located in Irvine. It has attractions like go karts, laser tag, arcade games, mini golf, bumper boats, and batting cages. There's also a full bar and amusement park food like pizza. We played 18 holes of mini golf at night which was fun. You can pay for things individually or you can buy a bundle or unlimited pass. It's a casual spot that's family friendly but also good for dates and group outings. It's a fun activity for a couple hours.

laser tag
Becky C.

I came to Boomers for a corporate event, and honestly, it was a pretty good package. We got unlimited rides, go-karts, laser tag, and 3 hours of free gameplay. The free games were the blue tap games, so you don't earn tickets, but there were still a ton of fun options. We didn't even come close to using the full 3 hours because there was so much to do. My favorites were the basketball games and Connect 4 basketball. We played a few rounds of laser tag, which was super fun, but a lot of the equipment seemed broken that day. They also couldn't split us into teams, so everyone was playing individually instead. The go-karts were really fun for a group we got a whole round to just our coworkers. Some of the karts definitely felt faster than others, which made things interesting. We also did mini golf, and the course was much bigger than I expected. It took quite a while to get through all the holes. One thing to note is that the rides don't always have staff standing by them. If you want to ride something, you may have to find an employee and ask them to operate it. Overall, there was honestly more to do than we could fit into the 3 hours. We didn't even get to everything we wanted to try. Despite a few operational issues, we had a really fun time and felt like the event package offered a lot of value.

Never knew this place existed until this past weekend, it is expensive but if you stay for a few hours it makes up for it with the unlimited pass. This past weekend the downfall we had were two of the rides were closed down. Tons of parking, never had an issue with staff everyone was acknowledgeable, nice and explained how the process works. Bought the tickets online to save, this place has rides, arcades, and food. I suggest going right when it opens, the mini golf gets super crowded so the kids and I just kept playing in random courses to avoid the long lines. Surprisingly the food wasn't bad at all, it is pricey, but favorable. I also enjoyed the fact that the claw machine wasn't a scam like most places, my kids enjoyed the fact that they were able to win plushies that was the highlight of my time.

Quesadilla
Jessica H.

Holy cow this place is expensive. So grateful to my dad for paying for us all to go. It's $50 per kid to have unlimited for the day, including 20 credits at the arcade, which barely covers anything. My kids loved the go-karts and the starship zero gravity spinning ride and laser tag. Go when it opens because it gets really crowded in the second half of the day. Boomers has been around basically my whole life so I'm happy for them that they've found a way to stay open all this time. Food reviews- expensive but pretty good. My bro liked the quesadilla, the kids liked their chicken, my dad liked his burger, and my other bro and I shared the nacho avalanche- definitely don't try to eat the nachos alone. They're huge. Also I added steak for protein- turns out they come with meat even if you don't ask for it (chili) so no need to pay more for that. And if you're vegetarian, now you know not to get those. The chili is kinda spicy and pretty gross so I wouldn't get those again.

Pizza
Lola B.

Lots of parking. Great service. Clean restrooms. Not too much for little kids under 5 to do. But this was a great experience. Came to a birthday party here. The Weber in the party room was beyond great. He went over and beyond. All of the workers for the rides were amazing except one girl. We didn't get her name but everyone there tried to avoid every ride she had to work at. If you're not going to be nice, find another job where you don't deal with people Other than that, it was a fun time. Nov 7 Sunday I beleive it was 3 or 4 pizzas, wings and two sodas and one kids drink

Two mini golf courses
Jordan H.

Nice facility for a good time out for adults and kids alike. I've been here a few times the past year or so and have tried pretty much all of their offerings. Mini golf is $18/adult. There are two courses and each course takes about an hr or so. You can pay once and do both courses. I went most recently on a Friday evening and it was pretty crowded though, so I would say maybe half the time on the course was waiting for the party in front of you. Just keep that in mind. The go-karts are pretty standard. The wait for the go-karts can be long because the turn cycle can take awhile since the workers need to check if everyone is properly wearing a seatbelt, etc. The laser tag was solid. Sometimes the guns don't work so just make sure you test your equipment before the game starts, otherwise you really can't participate and you have to wait in line again (this happened to me once...). I would avoid the arcade games. They are too expensive. Some games are $2-3 just for one game. The batting cages are pretty neat. Not sure how many other batting cages there are in OC. But here it is $5 for a round of 25 balls. They also have bats and helmets you can borrow for free. Overall a decent place to hang out and have fun. It can be easy to spend a lot though so I would limit yourself to 1-2 attractions or just get the all-day pass. Even then I think the all-day pass is $45 so still pricey.

It had been over 10 years since we last visited, and walking back into this nostalgic park brought back so many memories. From the race cars and bumper boats to mini golf and the beautifully redone arcade, everything felt both familiar and fresh at the same time. We were greeted at guest services by Andrew, the manager, and he truly set the tone for our visit. He went above and beyond helping us with our Groupon and made us feel genuinely welcome. It's rare these days to find someone so personable and attentive, and Andrew really made a lasting impression on us. The park itself is very clean and well-kept, which we appreciated. Whether you're planning a simple day out or looking for a place to host a birthday party, this is a wonderful spot to enjoy with family and friends.

Batting cages
Leeza D.

I come here for the batting cages to practice for my softball games. The pros are that it is relatively not busy when I come, however, the machines are hit or miss in terms of actually working and pitching at the right level and a whole host of other factors. This is a very convenient location and the employees are nice so all in all I would come back. $4.00 for 25 pitches or you can get a value 6pack for $20.00. If you have the Bowlero summer pass with arcade, it works here also! Casual. Please come and create your own adventure.

Shameful lack of maintenance of the greens on the mini golf course
Jamie G.

Have visited many times over the years. Many changes over time, some good. Last night I went with my teenage son and arrived less than two hours before closing which meant we each got an unlimited attraction pass for $29. This was a good value compared to regular prices. Enjoyed the go carts twice; attendants were very patient with customers and trouble makers. Cart track is super fun, carts ran well, fun competition! Bumper boats were closed; perhaps weather isn't warm enough yet or demand was low. Two fountain sodas at the snack bar were $13. Pretty outrageous. Tried to use the batting cages. Our unlimited pass didn't seem to apply however, which was disappointing, as our key cards were unable to activate the cages in two different lanes. We moved on to mini golf. Well lit and good music is the best I can say. Overall I can tell the courses have been improving from a maintenance standpoint but the greens are TERRIBLE. If you have to putt over broken turf or your ball gets stuck in a pit of death that used to be part of the brick border, it disrupts the fun and becomes frustrating. Seriously, Boomers. Put some of that ridiculous soda pop revenue into fixing your miserable astroturf. There were tears and holes everywhere. The arcade gets periodically updated but we didn't use it this time due to time constraints. Always had fun on the multitude of games available. Same with laser tag, we just ran out of time. Was not crazy about the process for golf putters and bats for the batting cages. There only seemed to be one person in charge of handing these out from the desk and they were stuck handling a long ticket line so we pretty much helped ourselves by reaching over the counter and grabbing what we needed.

Boomers still really needs a bit of TLC or maybe a makeover! I came here last night for a birthday party and while it was very fun, I can see some areas where Boomers could be a lot better. First off, the area where you eat was so LOUD...I'm thinking that's where the music speakers must be. We literally had to yell to hear one another. Also, they have giant TVs up, but I noticed that they had the intro screen on, versus playing the actually movie. They could also use the TVs to play sports games for the parents while kids are playing. The food was what you'd expect. Pizza was pretty good, and then they have fries, chicken strips, dip n dots, icees, etc. I played laser tag for the first time ever, despite coming to Boomers since I was a little kid. It's $18 per person, which felt pretty high, since you only get 10 minutes. The space inside to play was fun but pretty basic. There were some hiding areas and red and blue colored lights - I'd love them to use a black light or have some more fun colors. It smelled like they are in need of some new carpet or a deep cleaning for sure. It has a real musty smell. The bathrooms were atrocious. Many toilets weren't flushing, stalls without toilet paper and trash on the ground. Every time I have been to Boomers lately I just think about how they could really put in a little $ to make it that much better! I'm sure they're making decent money, cuz it's not super cheap. I do love the mini golf and all around nostalgia this place brings!

The bread, which imo is what makes the sandwich, was light, fluffy and had a nice crunch with every bite. It kept its integrity and never fell apart. The chicken itself was perfectly seasoned but is more citrusy than anything else. It did mask a bit of the ranch taste but it was still delicious. Would absolutely get again. & it was huge! Great price! Chicken tenders & Cajun tots -- we love a place that perfectly seasons their food! Tots were fire. Chicken was good for what it is. Basic done right. Pizza -- sauce had rich flavor, solid pizza.

They can host up to 200 guests and have options for all kinds of parties like birthdays, anniversaries, corporate events and more. They also offer party platters with things like wings, burgers, salads and appetizers which makes it super easy if you are planning something Overall this is such a solid spot whether you are going for a casual night out or planning a full event.

Final issue, I was leaving the restroom and it's a blind corner, that we can all agree on, a server came around the corner, almost took me out and then had the audacity to make a comment along the lines of "wow, okay". Overall my experience was not great. I'm glad I got to spend time with family but ultimately the staff can't be bothered and shows that Bowlero is just an over hyped bowling alley.

And this takes the cake as my all time favorite. The courses have great holes, with a large variety of simple classic style holes. But the place really shines in decor and atmosphere. It really leans into a more vintage vibe, considering this place is nearly 60 years old the grounds are immaculate, which is unheard of anywhere near LA. Amazing buildings and hedge arches dot the real turfed landscape. Vintage music plays out of old megaphones. Did I mention the place is massive? The parking lot holds maybe 400 cars, but expect it to be nearly full. It has vintage bumper boats, an arcade and 4 18 hole courses.
