This a cool place to go race with the kids but they need customer service skills. I'm not sure why they switch managers to the lady the have but where the other guy that worked her for years They definitely need him back. He actually cared if you had a good time and helped you put a package together to best fit your needs. The people here now just stare at you and ask if you're ready. Why are y'all selling unlimited rides for 30mins when there's a 22 min wait to get on a go cart? Make it make sense..... *Updated I was not trying to get my son to ride a super car, she was NOT listening. My son is only 10 I would NOT want him to ride a super car. I was asking her to help with the package like the other guy would do... She was too busy putting on her lip gloss and fixing her nose ring to listen. Thanks read more

Houston Grand Prix - Bored with these long lines - Go Karts Near Me - Houston, Texas

Fun place to unwind and drive sorta fastish....a couple of our carts didn't have much giddy up. But it was still great family time; fun was had by all! There's retro type arcade game machines inside plus snacks to buy. We went in the evening and the lines to the go carts weren't to long. I'll be back, for sure. read more

Yes the cars are super slow and out dated. I'm not sure if the guy who helped me was high or super sleepy.

Overall we had fun here. This is the ideal place to come to play arcade games and of course, ride the go carts. The go carts were rather slow in my opinion. After the first lap, I felt like my car was going to cut off at any moment. The track isn't big at all which allowed us to be able to make several trips around the track. The track attendant made sure we all followed the safety rules. They offer an unlimited wristband option for the go karts. We did not opt for this but we did play multiple arcade games. I was thrilled they had my fav, Ms PAC Man! Some of the games weren't operable due to Covid. The staff here was friendly and helpful. Pricing was reasonable. read more

We love go karts. We usually get the biggest package and then spend more. Every place in town is excellent, except this one. Some kids were driving rowdy (definitely rammed us),so they stopped the race. Instead of pulling the kids and letting the rest of us finish the last 80 of the ride, they just boned all of us. No apology. No resolution. Just f*ck you, we got your money. Manager defended it, because some people were just raised wrong. Aside from the place being run by thieves, it was a shit hole. I used the men's room twice and the piss on the floor from the first time was covered in vomit the second time. Worst go kart place in Houston, hands down. Go anywhere else. read more

$25.00 for an hour of unlimited go-kart rides! What a deal! We will be back. The staff could have acted a bit happier, but they were nice.

I have no other go-karting experience/place to compare it to, so I loved it here! I like that it's smaller so you get more riding time out of it bc not as many people. read more

The go karts were so slow when I came here I was expecting fast go karts but no it was the opposite

Came here with my family, my B-I-L, and 3 nephews a couple of weeks ago. First impression was that this place looked a little dated - both on the outside and inside. Biggest positive here is that it's fairly cheap to get into a go cart and a little kid going for the 1st time would get a kick out of it. Such was the case when I drove tandem with my 8-year old nephew who was too short to be allowed to drive a solo cart. If you or anyone else with you has ever experience K-1 or anything of that caliber, then this place will put you to sleep. The carts are not very fast and they don't even give you helmets to wear! Uhhh, "safety first"? Nope, not here. Again, you're not going super fast but one would think that they'd want to minimize any liability. Guess not. On the track, they don't allow any bumping at all. If you do, they will flag you down and tell you to cut it out or tell you to bring your cart in. That's actually smart...especially considering no one wears helmets! The arcade games and such inside are just black holes to suck your money out of your pocket. Didn't even see any really great prizes you can redeem your arcade tickets for. Again, if you don't want to spend a lot of money to take a kid out carting for the 1st time then give this place a whirl. If you like speed, value safety, and visual appeal then this may not be the ideal spot. Kudos though to the friendly staff. The 1st skee ball machine I tried ate up 2 coins and didn't ever start. When I went to the desk to inform them, the staffer didn't even come out to look at it. He just handed me 2 coins as reimbursement. I may come back here with the young 'uns to kill some time on the cheap but that would be about it. read more

This is a very fun place to visit. It is very family oriented. They have tuns of arcade games. You can win tickets from the games you play that can be used towards prizes! The staff was very friendly and eager to answer any questions. They also have go cart riding witch was very fun. They have hand sanitizer at the entrance. It wasn't too crowded when we went but I'm not sure how it is on other days. Definitely a place I would consider visiting again. read more

31 years I've passed by this place but never visited until yesterday (14 November 20). This place has great potential and I'm sure it serves as a great family friendly venue for its community but I think it needs a few adjustments to be optimal for all of Houston to enjoy. Mind you I'm writing this with a critical lenses through Covid-19 glasses. Pros: *Friendly staff *security on the premises *hand sanitizer stations in the game room * affordable *plenty of shade in the waiting lines for the race tracks. *multiple race tracks and race cars *games for everyone Cons: *there was No social distancing AT ALL *only one restroom for male and female which was annoying as there are tons of kids there *no one was sanitizing the games *no sanitation of the handles on the race cars This place was a 2.5 out of 5 stars. Like I said it has potential. I personally will not be revisiting but I'm sure some changes will make it an optimal venue. read more

The inside was extremely hot. The tracks were not well kept at all! They were very bumpy and one of them had 2 pot holes. The go karts did not all go the same speed, so it was not good for racing with your friends. The half mile track only had 3 karts that could go on it. There were four in our group and they sold us tickets for that without even telling us. You can't race on that one either and it was also very bumpy. We had to wait for the other track for several minutes as they were working on the go karts. read more

We stopped by on Saturday after a soccer game and the guys at the go-cart track were incredibly nice to my 9 year old. She was a little scared to drive her own go-cart. They offered us to switch to a 2 seater and when she decided to drive her own go-cart, two of the gentlemen working the track went to her and made sure that she was comfortable. I feel they went above and beyond. This is a hopping place! It has multiple tracks and you can buy an hour unlimited rides and skip the line. read more

Houston Grand Prix - The track - Go Karts Near Me - Houston, Texas

The facility was nice and clean. The game area was a bit hot but that didn't stop the kids from having fun!!

Ive driven past this place off of 59 since I was a kid but this is my first time here. We were having a Sunday funday with the kids and dad mentioned go carts. Its not too bad on the wallet but definitely look for a coupon or groupon. No outside food allowed and no alcohol is permitted. My only real complaint is the massive headache that I am dealing with while my family has fun playing the arcade games. The fumes from the go carts are so strong that even being inside its overpowering the freshly popped popcorn scent that I would much rather be smelling. I think I may have just killed a few brain cells. read more

Need more restrooms, and better arcade games, we come for the go carts! We have a 7 and 4 year old and they love the go carts! The smile on their face is priceless. As an adult they're not fast but looking back to when I was a kid they're your basic go cart, still pretty fun. If you've been to those k1 speed ones obviously these are no where near that speed therefore no need for a helmet lol read more

Staff was very nice overall son had a blast popcorn was nice had a great time .....great prices

Do not waste your money here the community is horrible and they lie about unlimited rides

We've been here before and enjoyed it but this time we were very disappointed. We bought the unlimited rides for an hour but didn't realize they were only running one track and weren't running a full set of cars. We only got to ride twice. They also need to do a better job of watching for people cutting in line. This is one of the cheapest tracks around here but you get what you pay for. read more

Great place for go-karting! My 15 y/o enjoyed it immensely. The super carts go pretty fast! The game room could use some better games and fix the machines, some don't dispense the tickets and there was not enough staff to report it too. Prices are fair. We will be back! read more

On trips out north after you drop of your 'rents off at the airport and wanna get out some aggression of the past week you spent with them... why not go here? it's near the airport off of hwy 59 so right after you drop granny off, you can work off some of that hell bent anger and spend that 10 she gave you in your birthday card... The prices are pretty reasonable, you can do time or four laps (4 laps was like 6 bucks.. nice!) or get a day pass... they got 2 tracks... and a game room to cool off and work off some more steam playing air hockey or mortal kombat (cartoon blood and gore rocks@@) not the prettiest or flashiest place, but nevertheless a place for good ol' wholesome family fun... next time imma take the family out so i can nerf a few into the rails.... After an hour of doing this... I felt like gasin up the Honda and racing ppl for pink slips and benjamins.... read more

After a night of things going terrible, we were in the area and thought this would be a good place to go. As we walked inside we were greeted and told about pricing, lines for go karting were quick, and the requirements for "super karts" (15 or older for a faster kart) are a nice detail to have for smaller kiddos. For a group of four people (2 men, 2 girls) we had a beyond great time. Been going to this place for years with family and friends and thought a review was needed. :) p.s., the pickles are great. read more

Grew up passing this place everyday- and I don't think improvements have been made since I was in school 30 years ago. Was in town and my son wanted to stop. The place is in pretty bad shape, dirty and just has an overall rundown appearance. Staff was as friendly has they had to be, I didn't get a warm fuzzy feeling by any stretch from anyone. And this should be noted- no ATM. if your son is having a blast and needs a drink and you don't have cash as most people don't carry it anymore- too bad so thirsty. We would have stayed longer if thirst wasn't an issue. Cost was $7-8 per go-cart ride or $25 per hour. They weren't overly busy so my son got 8 rides in. read more

Aside from the go-carting aspect, I would not come here for anything else. This place had a very 90's feel to it in the establishment. Does not look like it has had any recent remodeling, but I'm fine with or without it. It wasn't like it was disgusting or anything. I tried out the arcade portion, small but whatever. I think kids would enjoy it. Go-cart for 4 for an hour was $25 in total. Not sure if that's standard or not but I thought that was worth it. There were 2 tracks you can choose from. 1 of them had lanes that required more sharp turns. The other had wider lanes and I think would be easier to race your friends in. There were 3 different cart choices to choose from. 1 was a paired car where it was more made for a parent and their kid in the passenger seat, a normal speed car and a super car that could accelerate a lot faster. Overall, enjoyable experience and definitely a change of pace in activities to do in Houston. Would recommend people giving this place a try if they could look past the 90's theme going on. read more

What a fun track! I'm in from out of town for meetings and we passed this place while driving by on the freeway. A group of us decided to give it a try after dinner. There is an arcade inside although we really didn't spend much time there. They also have two tracks for Go Karts but only the 1/4 mile was open. (We were there on a Tuesday night) Adult pricing was $6.00 for 4 min or $25 for an hour. An hour probably would have been a little long for us so we ended up splitting a package and getting 2 X 4 min sessions for $8 each. A great deal! We had a couple of big guys in the group with me being one of them. I usually am disappointed at Go Kart tracks because the machines just can't move me around and keep up with the others. Not here. I actually ended up with the fastest Kart on the track. That's saying a lot as we had a couple of lighter people as well and I could always out run them on the straight a ways. The course is a good with with a couple of long straight stretches and big S type turn. There are some good places to try and pass, but it's not that easy when you are with others who are good at blocking. Like I said, the machines had some pep in them but there are, in the end, Go Karts and those of us with 6" frames were a little sore after cramming into them. That being said, this was the most fun I've had at a Go Kart track. The operator was pretty cool and let us race rather aggressively and we simply had a blast. read more

What I loved about this place was the prices are very reasonable. The machines seemed to all work. The staff was friendly. We had an amazing time! Was really worth the money for me. I also hit two jackpots and ended up with a hefty bounty! read more

Please save your money and go somewhere else. We took my son in with us when we inquired about bday parties there. No one mentioned him not being tall enough to ride the go carts so we booked. We show up today for his party and we are told he is a 1/4 inch too short to ride alone.....SERIOUSLY?! He was with us when we booked!!! So he had to wait to ride with someone else. And to make matters worse it was insanely hot inside where the party tables are. As soon as we arrived we started sweating. Four people ended up leaving because of how hot it was. We complained and they brought a fan. A fan to cool the party area where multiple people are. We also brought a fan inside that I had in my car and it didn't do anything. All of our guest were sweating as were we. $280.00 for two hours of sweating and my kid who's there to celebrate his birthday can't even ride the go cart unless someone is with him. PLEASE SAVE YOUR MONEY. Go to Main Event where you can spend that amount of money AND get food AND not sweat through your clothes and watch your guest leave because of how hot it is. read more

My 4 year old and I walked in and were immediately given info about prices. It was a little high, $8 for 4 minutes, or $25 for an hour. However, my son wasn't charged for since he was a passenger in the 2 person go cart. There were also many arcade games inside for the kids. read more

Houston Grand Prix - Mother son date - Go Karts Near Me - Houston, Texas

I still remember the day that I first rode a Go-Kart at Houston Grand Prix. But before I drove a racing car, I felt anxious entering the place, asking how things ran there. To my surprise, the time there was smooth from the beginning starting with excellent customer service. Since the first time I visited this place and the times after, they are friendly and helpful associates ready to answer my questions. They have employees that can speak Spanish, too. The excellent customer experience extends from the front office to the racetrack. The Houston Grand Prix associates ensure to enforce the rules at the business. Everyone who wants to race also must hear the rules about the rules and expectations of a safe driving experience that staff goes to every race. They make sure that everyone can fit their car well with some cushions. Before I even stepped in the gas, I felt safe and comfortable having heard the rules that did not take away any of the fun out of car racing. Out of my experiences racing at the Houston Grand Prix, I admit that customer service is excellent no matter how many times you have been there. One of the reasons the Houston Grand Prix is a valuable business in my community is its service. Go-Karting is for all ages, even for young people, because they can ride with an older person. It is an entertainment hub that can be enjoyed by both parents and children. From the times that I have been there, it is typical to see kids have their birthdays. Again, you do not have to come to this place alone. Trust me; it is better to go with another fellow racer. It could be with family or friends that you could compete with in the track. Go-karting can be an experience that young ones can learn as well as have fun. There, the staff introduces how a basic motor vehicle works, how to drive with others on the track, and driving rules and expectations. Everyone has their first time behind the wheel. Another benefit of attending an entertainment place like this one is that anyone can forget about the stresses of their daily lives. Picture this, trying to gain an edge on the guy next to you on the next curve on a fast kart. It's an opportunity to escape the stresses of everyday life! I think that the Houston Grand Prix is a valuable small business in my community because it is one of the few entertainment businesses in the vicinity. Over the years that I have lived in the North of Houston, I have not seen much change in the family entertainment market, much less a different go-karting business. Thus, it offers locals a chance to have a place like this around the corner. If this were not the case, it would cost more to find another go-karting place further away and possibly pay more than Houston Grand Prix prices. In my opinion, the price of admission makes sense with the service I get. It is a convenient place to visit with the kiddos on a budget read more

Nice place to go to keep the kiddos occupied... I brought my son and nephew here and they are having a ball. read more

best place ever!!!! had so much fun and was pretty cheap overall great experience!!

This place was awesome! My wife and I went here because we wanted to do something different. We had so much fun! We paid $25 total for the whole time we were here which was about 2 hours. We got a package deal and we each got 2 rides on the go-karts and 10 tokens. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The place was very clean (and had nice bathrooms says my wife). The track was fun and windy, the go-karts weren't extremely fast but we still enjoyed them. The pool tables looked decent too, even though we didn't have a chance to play them because we ran out of tokens. There is a huge variety of games from old school games to new games, and ticket games or just win a prize game. Needless to say we will be returning to this place sometime soon. read more

Its great!! The employees are really friendly. They definitely have something for all age group, all of their games are new and my nieces and nephews lovee running through every single one of them!

I really wanted to have my son's birthday here after getting a rave review from a friend. However, if a company can't keep the promises it has in writing then I can't do business with them. The website at the time Cleary stated that the party could be booked for a $25 non refundable fee and after 48 hours you would lose your spot if the deposit wasn't paid. The her on the other end of the phone told me that wasn't true and I had to give him my cc over the phone which after being the victim of identity theft I never do. His words were lady everyone has a cc you just have to do it over the phone. REALLY. Second black mark, horrible customer service. He went on a long drawn out story about how they were workin g to change the website but until then they were just not going to honor the policy posted for everyone to see and make up a new one. Who is to say they won't always do this on a whims notice?? BAD BAD BUSINESS. NOT THE KIND OF PACE I WAN T TO GIVE MY MONEY TO. If I ever talked to a customer the way this idiot employee talked to me I wouldn't have a job!!

Worst place ever. Went Here for a birthday party and it was horrible slow and small go karts. Rude teenage employees that will yell at your children to the point of crying. It's is dirty and really ghetto out dated games and junk prizes for outrageous amount I would recommend avoiding this place read more

So great to still have this excitement that even the adults remember from there youth. Thanks guys

My 7yr old son and I come here a couple times a year. This place is right off 59-North via Lauder, ((mind you)) have to IMMEDIATELY merge all the way over into the far right lane when exiting b/c you have about 150 yards to get into their parking lot. It coulsd easily be passed up if not paying attention. I always get the $25 deal where we're both able to ride the 2 seaters for an hour. Being that my son has that, "we gotta come in 1st mentality" he loves it when his dad passes & weaves in/out of lanes w/ ease and eventually laps a few people behind. The tracks here are extremely plain w/ no finesse to the design of the corse. Pretty much an open field of cement w/ a few curves and grass that separates the track corse. There are two main tracks and a couple smaller ones that seem to be for the smaller kids. Inside the establishment, is an arcade area which could be chaos sometimes b/c its extremely small. There is only ONE entrance to go inside, and ONE entrance to lead to the tracks outside, 2 doors total. The arcade games are a bit outdated and there's also a non regulated size pool table. At the front counter, you can find the typical prize showcasing area explaining how many thousands of tickets it'll take to exchange for the 5 dollar water gun. read more
