I want to start by saying my three grandkids (age 3 1/2, almost 3 & 18 months) had a blast! It was…read moregreat to bring the little ones out on a winter day and have some fun. Now here are my concerns..... there is a under 5 yrs old area that has a big sign that states STRICTLY ENFORCED..... no... no it's not. Big kids were running in there and knocking over the little ones. Next- they have a plumbing problem- toilet and sink were backed up in one of the two bathrooms. 2 things that really made shake my head is 1-they Have open electrical outlets on the floor without covers and 2-extension cords plugged in and the only thing to keep kids out is a free standing baby gate. I will also mention some of the beams are covered With padding to protect kids from hurting themselves and some are not. Update: I'm updating my review because I took the grandkids here yesterday 2/17/2020 and everything the owner promised she was going to take care of was taken care of. My grandkids really enjoy this place and I'm very pleased she took my concerns into consideration and fixed everything! I do understand it's a tough business and always try to support local businesses. Kudos to the owner and staff for making this a safe place for kids!!!!

I had so much fun myself. We was there for six hours. Yes six hours!!! as an adult. You can have fun with your kids also, the only reason why I didn't give it all it stars is because they have a virtual world thing and it wasn't open so sad but other than that, everything was great

We were looking for something fun to do with our grandchildren and brought 4 children 5 and under for a fun morning. The kids were in and out in under 20 minutes and it cost us almost $200! Each child was charged an $11 sitting fee in addition to the cost of the item they chose to paint. The kids chose small kid appropriate items of little animals that cost $30-50 each. we walked away feeling scammed instead of like we had the fun morning. we we're hoping for.

We love The Hangout! We've been here a few times since the new owner took over and this is one of…read morethe few play places where my daughter has the space to actively engage with other children in a natural space that isn't overstimulating. It seems like there is something new every time we come here, without being overwhelming or cluttered. We have also taken a few classes here as well, and have enjoyed every single one. I appreciate that drop in play is under $20, and the one-time and weekly classes are always reasonably priced.

We LOVE the Hangout! Absolutely fantastic spot to bring the kiddos! The new owner, Alexis, has done…read morean absolutely amazing job revitalizing the space and making it SO WARM and INVITING for my children. The classes are especially great, and a major highlight to this space that I haven't seen at any other "indoor play spaces" - Alexis does such a great job organizing and creating fun, engaging classes for all ages. She's always got a schedule for new and fun classes! If you've got young kids, this place needs to be on your radar!

This is a fun place for little kids. Lots of areas for pretend play: doctor, bakery, store, vet... There's a corn play area, a slide with a ball pit, a trampoline, and little cars to ride around on. Admission was $15 per kid. They had a nice family restroom with a comfy looking changing table. This is definitely a place I would come back to on a rainy/windy day like today. I hope that maybe they'll expand their weekend hours in the future.

I couldn't believe how smooth it all went. They did a bunch of experiments, and you can tell they have a lot of experience working with kids, and getting them to listen.

Wow! I had never been to Plainfield Lanes before, but came for my nephew's birthday party this…read moreweekend. I was very pleasantly surprised! Most bowling alleys (if not part of a chain, ie Brunswick), have a dreary vibe to them - dark, dank and unkempt - but not here. We arrived at 1pm for the birthday party, and all of the lanes were already busy. You can tell that this business books a lot of parties - and I can see why! The price per person for parties is fantastic! They have multiple tiers of both children and adult parties, as well as corporate and fundraising events. We had chicken fingers and pizza, and both were better than you'd expect at a bowling alley. The party even had a coordinator; he kept the time very on track, and was very accommodating. I'd definitely recommend Plainfield Lanes as a local outing or party spot!

This was my first time at Twisted Pin, and I was very impressed. The prices are pretty high but as…read morea non-bowler, I am not sure how they rank compared to other places. On the other hand, this place is also a little more high end compared to your old fashion bowling/dive bar places. The location was very easy to find. We used Google Navigation and it lead us directly to the place. If you miss the entrance, it might be a little annoying to backtrack but no big issues. Parking was no issues and it is very big compared to the size of the building. We showed up on a busy Wednesday where it is penny pins so you only pay a penny per pin you knock down. Essentially...the worst you are, the cheaper your game will be. Inside the building is very nice and clean. There are two entrances..one is a "restaurant" and the other is the decent sized arcade and bowling. There is a self serving beer tap. And they do serve food. They do a little star less due to the prices of the food as well. It is better than your traditional bar/bowling food but it is a little more expensive. Also, I do enjoy the service of the self serving beer tap. They had a lot of selections of beer, 1-2 seltzers, 1 cider and ~5 wine selection. Also, they do have a "limit" of ~32 oz where the bartender can allow you or less depending on how you act. I do appreciate that so while you can drink feely, no one is getting drunk. I think we were paying ~.60 cents an oz and it does tell you how much your drink will cost as you are pouring. Also, they do have a small water station will is greatly appreciated. The arcade is decently sized. They do have a lot of selections of games but it is not a place where I would go just for the arcade. The size is good for after bowling or while you are waiting for your lane. Overall, I am very impressed with this location. Food, self serving beer tap, and arcades... I am fan of Twisted Pins and I would be back in the future.
