    Rotten salad that they served us at the party.

    Just had a birthday party for my son today. I usually love Pump It Up, but this location was a really disappointing experience compared to other branches. The staff here were way too strict, to the point where it affected the kids' experience. We had one child with a milk allergy who couldn't eat the pizza that was provided, and we brought a small snack just for that child so they wouldn't be left out. Even after explaining the situation, the staff refused to let that one kid have their own snack and told us that if we "broke the rule," we'd be charged an extra $250. That felt completely unreasonable and insensitive. On top of that, the food they served wasn't fresh. We ordered an extra side salad and fruit, and our guests complained that the salad was rotten. We told the staff, and although they removed the charge, it still shouldn't have happened in the first place. Another thing that really surprised us was at the end of the party -- the staff were collecting every single balloon from the balloon drop so they could reuse them. The kids were disappointed because they thought they could take one home. It honestly felt like they were cutting costs everywhere while still raising fees. And honestly, for more than $1,000 for a kids' birthday party, I expected much better. Overall, we were not impressed at all and would not recommend this location. The Pump It Up in Santa Clara is much better -- the staff there are more involved, friendlier, organized, and actually make the celebration feel special. Unfortunately, this location was the complete opposite.

    we came in for an open jump planning to let our 1 year old roam and crawl freely. i didn't realize they had soft play blocks for her to climb on, which was such a nice surprise. i was also impressed with how clean the floor was. definitely our new go-to place for raining days. one thing to note is that the staff isn't responsible for watching your children (just like anywhere else). i do wish they offered a 2 & under open jump time to help prevent older kids from accidentally knocking over the little ones. (hopefully someone actually sees & takes note of this) we will be returning though!

    My little love with her beautiful birthday decorations in Pump it up San Jose

    My little five girl Amy was so happy with her birthday party at Pump it Up. The glow jumping in the dark was so wonderful and every kid loved it! At the beginning, the staff explained the safety rule . Then all the friends cheered with the birthday kid before entering the room. There were two play rooms there. The first one was regular light and the very very long slide was the most popular. The second room was glow dark room and the kids enjoyed this kind of mysterious environment. After the all time playing with different kinds of trampolines, it came the delicious food. Their pizza and chicken wings were so delicious. Different flavors of drinks you can choose. We love lemonade best. And we brought our own birthday cake and they can help to keep in their refrigerator. Birthday song, birthday cake, and birthday goodie bags... Two hours full of fun time! Perfect! Laila and her team members can help the parents to take care of all the party preparations. Before the party, they called to double confirm and were very responsible and helpful during the whole party! Thanks to you all!

    First visit to a Pump It Up for GK#2's 6th Birthday Party. Sam was our Party host and he did a great job. Located in a strip mall, the facility appears clean and well maintained. The bouncy castles are in good shape without obvious wear. Like a party assembly line, the kids gathered in the lobby, where the safety rules were discussed then the kids and adults were schlepped into the first playroom with3 large bouncy castles. After about 35-40 mins the party moved to a 2nd playroom with 3 other bouncy play structure's and a balloon drop. Balloon drop proved to be popular. After a group picture, the group moved to the party room where birthday treats were served. Well organized. Employees were friendly and kind to the kids. On the pricier side, but not totally out of line with other birthday venues in the area.

    Sigh... once little ones experience bounce houses they really never get it out of their system. Pump It Up is a bounce house with a few different inflatable sections. It's mostly for parties but also has some free play time where any kid can play. For $22/hour. Not pro-rated. If you're a kid, you'll probably like this place up to maybe 7 or 8. I think older kids would find it a little too limited and small. For adults this place is something to endure. The annoying music blaring and the sound of air pumps makes conversation difficult. There's nothing to do but wait for the kids to be done. Also their credit card machine is down a lot, which is annoying. It's in a big shopping center so there's plenty of parking. Overall, you can take your kids here, but don't expect to enjoy it yourself.

    Is this age appropriate for age 2y,3m? They are about 34" in height so will meet that requirement.

    Is this place safe for a 3 year old? Seems like it's more appropriate for the bigger kiddies.

    Pump It Up is age appropriate for 3 years old. The best way to experience it for the first time is by attending an open play session on a school day ie. not a holiday ( less kids ). Pls check Pump It Up event calendar for Open play sessions

    I recently found out about this place and it great for kids and adults alike!…read more Kids are in a secure place, with plenty of team members to watch out for and help them as needed. Adults have space to sit and work or watch their phones while waiting for the kids. Or, they can watch the kids playing. I went here for a birthday party but if you go just to play, you can buy a 2 hour play for $28.99 and if you come back within one week of the initial purchase, you pay a $1 more to get a monthly membership. This is a auto renewal each month but you can cancel anytime but you have to do that at least 5 days before you get charged again, which is the same date every month. $29.99 for one month is a great deal, especially because there is no limit to how many times you can go. There is a limit to play before 1pm on the weekend. There is also an Elite membership for $10 more. They also have arcade games and evenings they have a glow zone. I was not there for the glow time so not sure what that looks like. I went to the one on Monterey Rd. in San Jose and the parking can get tricky, especially on the weekend. The team is super friendly and willing to help. They announce each hour that a certain color wrist band has completed their 2 hours. I took one star off because the kids were busy playing, as they should, and not paying attention to the announcement and the team members were sharp with the ones that should have left. There is also not enough seating for the number of kids and parents that show up. In addition, the snacks and drinks are quite pricey but I noticed that most parents bought their own food, which is allowed. Great place for kids to burn off energy and spend time away from TV and smart devices!

It is a really fun place for kids. We had two hours of jump time and one hour in the party room. The kids had a blast. I have three kids. When we arrived at checkin, for some reason 2 of the 3 waivers I had signed couldn't be found in the system, even though I had an email. That didn't bother me too much, I just re-signed it, but wondered what happened. I appreciated that they have a separate checkin line for birthday parties. The bathroom was clean, the food was decent for a party place and they let you bring your own cake. I can see how some people say it's hectic because there are a lot of people and it isn't huge. Might be overwhelming for smaller kids. My 5 and 3 year old kids still loved jumping as long as we (the parents) were close to them. When we got to the party room, our host showed up 5 mins late. He did apologize and I didn't really mind, he was great and helped the kids with their pizza and cake. My 9 year old said it was her best birthday ever! Her friends seem to have enjoyed themselves too. I would host a party there again.

A parent or guardian assists their little gymnast while the instructor guides class activities." The advertisement isn't quite up to par. The instructor does not actually guide each activity. The instructor gives an overall list of many activities and expects the parent to remember all of them and then guide their child individually through the tasks. It doesn't work well at all. You really feel like you're on your own with a whole floor of equipment in front of you that you don't know what to do with. I wouldn't call that guidance from an instructor. This pertains to the five and under. I don't know what it's like for older children. This occurred at race Street. I don't know the name of the instructor. I would assume all instructors are functioning within what they're taught to teach the children. I would assume that the instructors are all uniform in there way of teaching classes. If this is not the case then maybe it should be. I think that this gymnasium can do a lot better. When I took my children there 25 years ago it was a lot better The coaches actually gave guidance to the parents step by step along the way so that it worked well.

The kids loved the gym time and could have done 10-20 min more easily, but with kids still having food in their plates and not quite done eating we were told it was time to go and "you'll get your goodie bags ON THE WAY OUT" lol I get it. We paid for 1.5hrs and we got 1.5hrs. It just felt so abrupt, and they said there was another party coming but there wasn't. If the coaches had said it's another $ for every 15 minutes, I would have gladly paid it, but alas it was not an option. We went elsewhere to wrap up the party. Positives: The coaches were nice, engaging and helpful. The kids enjoyed themselves. Negatives: The lack of alternative options on timing. Overall, I would still recommend a birthday party here, but be cognizant of the time!

The kids overall enjoyed it and both could participate at the same time. The owner later suggested moving our 5-year-old to a more advanced Tuesday class and assured us our 2yr old could attend at the same time. After switching within a few classes the instructors told us our 2yr old was "too young and not ready" (even though the class is listed for ages 1-3). He's a typical energetic toddler and me or my husband were present in every class to help keep him focused. When I brought this up to the owner instead of addressing the issue, he said both of our kids "don't follow instructions" including our 5yr old who is attentive and loves gymnastics. This was inaccurate, offensive and disappointing, especially since he admitted he hadn't seen them himself that class (while I did). The Tuesday classes were also very overcrowded compared to Saturdays. If safety or engagement is a concern, the gym should adapt its setup, not blame children for being age-appropriate. What made it worse is that the owner never followed up after that conversation - not to clarify or apologize. We canceled our enrollment that same day. It's disheartening to see a business handle families this way, making excuses instead of taking responsibility. We'll be taking our kids somewhere that values honesty, respect and a true understanding of child development.
