Experience: I took my husband to the safari to do a Capybara encounter for his birthday, but it ended up being so much more. We were able to learn about and pet farm animals, zebras, monkeys, lemurs, camels, kangaroos, fennec foxes, otters, and so many other beautiful rescue animals. They were all well taken care of and in good spirits. The experience was $25 per person and $25 extra per person to sit and have an encounter in the Capybara's environment. They were so sweet and kept jumping on us to snack on veggies. I can't wait to go back, I want to do all the encounters they have! Everyone in Charlotte needs to visit the farm and safari, it is a great experience.

As adults we have this tendency to say "if I knew then what I knew now, I'd have paid more attention in school!" Well here's your chance. This tiny aquarium will impart more knowledge in a short visit than you probably take in most months if you take advantage of it. The interns and owner (a former teacher) are committed to answering questions. The things they are studying and sharing are amazing. If you go in and you want to learn and ask questions this will be an experience you won't forget. Think of the best science teacher you ever had, having an opportunity to show the world what she loves to talk about... and that is what you have here. Do yourself a favor, go, enjoy and learn!!

He was so good with the kids, helping them and just did a fantastic job for 4+ hours. He told me he is an artist and Claflin University graduate.

When they said do what you love and think outside the box, this is what they meant. Thank you Kendrick. 10/10 would recommend.

This isn't a huge establishment and I went during a time that it wasn't extremely busy, so due to its smaller size I'd be curious to see how it fared with larger crowds.

this place is AWESOME!!!!…read more hidden gem. Fun for kids of all ages. I saw so many dads with their kids in there, both having a blast - together!! (* which is rare in this age of iPads and Roblox). The game selection was excellent. All the units are very well taken care of. There's no garbage machines, no nothing broken down. The whole establishment is very clean. They also have a lot of new arcade games from the last few years. So it's clear the owner is putting money and investing into new units. There's a whole slew of pinball games. Again, great selection. They have tons of snacks, food, and a great beer selection. Paragraph 15 bucks for all you can play is a steal. You can go down there and hide from your wife for hours on end. There's no question. I will be returning. Grab your keys, and run, don't walk, down to this place.
