    World's Largest Jump House! Minimal staff in the jump house, HIGHLY recommend you accompany your kids. Vast amount of space to enjoy but you do have your occasional rowdy kids who do not have any regards to others. Perfect for hot days. Bring your own grip socks and water to save money! Snow cones ($7), Gatorade ($5) and water ($3) is available for purchase. Kids had an amazing time. I highly recommend visiting while they are still here!

    Great fun for 6-11 year olds. Bring own socks or can purchase with ticket for $3.00 more. Thanks Zee for the fun and great customer service.

    The staff is wonderful I highlight recommend! I am definitely coming back with my kids.

    Update: I was able to get a hold of them and talk w the person in charge and sent him the video again. He said the problem has been fixed and offered me & my family tickets to go back and check for ourselves but I haven't been able to go. Anyway I'll leave a picture here of the area I was talking about so you parents can make sure it's safe. Other than that, place was fun.

    It was too hot. The kids were all sweating and burning their feet. Put this thing in a warehouse with some AC.

    Ask the Community - Funbox - El Cajon

    Adult must have gripper socks as well?

    Yes. You'll want to wear socks coz the jumper gets hot.

    Do we need to have grip socks or can we have regular socks on the inflatables?

    Regular socks are fine.

    I see the hours are open on Thursday's (the only days we can go) but I'm unable to purchase tickets for thursdays, Any Thursday. Can i just show up?

We did the laser tag…read morepackage which included the party room for 1 hour, 2 laser tag games, 4 rides and 200 tokens for the arcade. The kids had a blast! So did the adults. The laser tag was extremely fun for the kids! Man, I had forgotten how much fun laser tag is until I saw my kid and her friends playing. Then the party room was simple, but served its purpose really well. Our party hostess, Karrina, was really great with the kids and made sure the party kept moving along. I think what I liked the best about the experience for the party, was that our hostess walked the kids around to the rides and through the arcade so they could familiarize themselves with the layout of the Boardwalk. As I was talking with the adults, we were discussing competitors like Bowlero and Lucky Strike and how unreasonably priced it is for a family of four now a days. Just the arcades there are so expensive! Here, the kids were able to make their tokens last for hours and walked away with some fun prizes too. I hope the prices never get ridiculously high here. I grew up going to Parkway Bowl and the Boardwalk. I am so happy that the accessible pricing has remained. Additional shout outs to MC and Noelle (staff members who were very helpful and attentive). Please don't change Parkway! Thank you for allowing us to host an epic party!

It was convenient to enjoy a satisfying meal without having to leave the facility, allowing us to maximize our time enjoying the attractions. The bowling alley was another highlight of the visit. It was clean, well-maintained, and fun for both kids and adults. The lanes were easy to use, and the atmosphere was energetic without being overwhelming, making it a great activity for families and groups. One of the most impressive aspects of the park was that it never felt overcrowded. The spacious layout and well-managed guest flow meant short wait times and plenty of room to move around comfortably. We will definitely come back. ALL 3 kids, plus my bestie and I had a BLAST

After parking, completing registration, and waiting in line (10+ mins), I was finally informed--after a long delay--that my son wouldn't be able to ride for at least "a couple of hours." At no point was there signage or staff to communicate the wait time, leaving us standing in line with no information. This lack of transparency and service made for a frustrating and unacceptable experience. I lost a good 30 minutes of my day, and on top of that, I had to tell my 7 year old that we could not ride a go kart today and left extremely disappointed your location. Which by the way, is not easy to get to and it is definitely not in the friendliest part of town. A long drive, a long wait, indifferent customer service and no go kart riding made for a forgettable experience. I hope you take this feedback seriously and make necessary improvements to ensure future visitors receive clear communication and better service. I'd appreciate a response regarding how you plan to address these concerns.

    I have never had such a quick rude interaction with a company. I was googling fossils for purchase…read morehaving bought a number online before and actually been to a number of fields and dug up fossils myself came across. This guy seemed an amazing deal price was killer and I thought maybe it just didn't have a lot of fossils and it was a lot of reconstruction. Nowhere on that piece or any of the other pieces if you go through their website, does it say replica the only way you find the word replicas if you go to their website the very first time and go as if you're going to try to book an event and then it says Shop our replicas. I was asking a very simple question when I found out it was a replica. I wasn't rude. I said, cancel my order and they jumped down my throat. It was the rudest thing I've ever experienced and I hope no one ever has to deal with them after reading this.

    ***edit*** Since the owner replied and said I waited to call…read moreback for 4 days I thought I'd post "evidence" of that not being true. I called and spoke to her Monday, June 21st. She did not tell me to go online to book. She did say I had to have a $750 minimum since she'd be coming to San Diego, and I was ok paying the extra. Again, no mention to go online to do this while talking. I can't go back to Tuesday the 22nd on my phone to screenshot my log. But I've posted the 2 calls I made to her Wednesday and the call I made on Thursday. I left messages asking for a call back and that we'd spoken. Let's be clear, they were not booked. I've been looking for a Dino encounter type of company for my sons 4th birthday party. After speaking with several companies who were unavailable, this was the only one who was available. I believe her name is Carrie (maybe jeri?) who owns it. When I originally spoke with her before other companies, the first thing I thought was, she doesn't sound very charismatic nor entertaining. When I learned she was one of the "presenters" is when I searched for another company. Unfortunately no one else was available for my date so I called back. I spoke with her Monday about booking and she confirmed availability but said she was in the car and would call me back later to finish booking. Ok, great. She didn't call me back. I called her back Tuesday afternoon and left a message. Same thing Wednesday, I called a few times to follow up and pay. No response. Today, Thursday, I called and got a hold of her. She apparently has booked someone in my spot since we spoke. I am sooo angry. When we hung up Monday, I would have paid if she'd told me how instead said she was driving and we'd handle later. So I assumed we had our spot. When I reminded her of this, she told me I needed to understand she speaks to a lot of people every day and she had car troubles which she had to fix and handle. Quite frankly, I do understand things happen BUT how do you confirm someone else when you already told someone else they had that spot. Im furious but it may be for the best as I can not imagine her type of personality entertaining a bunch of 4 year olds. Terrible way to run your business. Look for a different company!!! I do NOT recommend. If you follow my reviews, I do NOT typically give out 1 star reviews and I'm very fair. But this review deserves it as they completely left me hanging for a party!
