They were patient but perky dealing with a group of neurodivergent girls who did not take their meds that day or have caffeine. Parking was easy since it's in the West End.

Gee, Katie, and Joy took such good care of me and my friends.

The space is welcoming, and having somewhere safe to go to smash a ton of stuff without having to clean it up is awesome. Plus, they take donations if you're ever trying to get rid of things, and they have extra supplies there if you forget to wear socks or whatever. I wish I knew of a place like this when I was younger because it's so therapeutic! First thing I said when we were done with our session was, "that's the best art therapy I've ever done".

We've done this activity a few times now with the same group of friends and it's always a blast…read more Every visit feels a little different which keeps it exciting. It's super fun but also very active, so be ready to move. Definitely feels like a workout in the best way. There are about ten different rooms and each one has a different challenge, ranging from brain teasers to full-on physical games. I love that there are different levels so it works for all ages and fitness levels. It's great whether you're competitive or just in it for a laugh. The only small downside is that each room only allows up to five people, and we were a group of eight. We had to split into two groups and mostly stuck with our original teams since switching around isn't always practical. If one team is already inside a room, the others have to wait and it eats into your play time. It would be awesome if they could make that part a bit smoother, but honestly it didn't take away from how fun everything else was. We're already planning to keep going back. I'd honestly sign up for a monthly membership if they had one. Way more fun than the gym and such a good way to hang out with friends while staying active.

There is a flat price for $75 minutes and there's tons of different rooms and timed activities and very challenging. My family likes this location because it doesn't get as busy so you don't have to wait too long for each of the rooms, there are basketball games, color jumping, trivia, running, hiding, and the time flies quickly! You get warm, sweaty, and hot. There are lockers you can tap in and out and water fountains but you do get warm. They have locations all over the North America-- the United States and I think Canada. You gain points/stars and when you reach a certain amount you get free items like a water bottle, keychain, basketball, shirt, etc. Parking is really easy out here.

My wife and I booked the Pasta Quartet with Chef Aaron. Words can not explain how much we enjoyed…read morethe experience. Chef Aaron was incredible. His patience and teaching skills are great. If you ever had thought about taking a cooking class, (but were nervous) we would highly recommend this one or any that Chef Aaron leads. The class lasted 3 hours, It seemed like 1 hour. His explanation and stories of his family and cooking were great, they added to the down to earth approach he has. He made us feel like we were pros, and we are not, at all. Thanks again Chef Aaron we will recommend to anyone and everyone.

This is a review regarding the "Healthy Thai Favorites" with Chef Rebecca…read more My spouse and I were the 2 attendees, and at first I was nervous- but Rebecca was so welcoming. It was such a fun evening! The event happened in Rebecca's home and it had such a lovely laid-back feeling. Plus the food was delicious! Conversation flowed easily, she gave us pointers on cooking and it really felt like both of us got to do an equal amount of cooking. We brought our own wine as well, since we were celebrating a birthday. I especially liked that we got to take home a copy of the recipes to try again later. I'm very glad that this was different from just going to a big kitchen area with a chef who gives instructions at the front. This was much more hands on and felt much more personalized. We were able to work within both our dietary restrictions (kosher and vegetarian) and it never felt like we made it hard or difficult. Very fun, I would do it again. Thanks Rebecca!

He Said: Whew. I just played pickleball for the first time…read more I had a really good time playing, but I was humbled, for sure. While I do not have a baseline (wink) for what other pickleball clubs are like, I was greatly impressed with Lucky Shots. I was welcomed by a friendly front desk employee, rented my very-reasonably priced paddle, then walked to a very well-kept pickleball court. Pros: Large parking area Friendly staff Fun environment (there are TVs, table tennis, bag toss, and other games) Very clean and tidy Lots of pickleball courts Cons: Not the most convenient location to find

There's a cute cafe in here that has salads, açaí bowls; sandwiches, shareables, flatbreads and breakfast options. They also have a few coffee items. I heard cookie butter latte was a go to. There are plenty of courts here to play pickleball in as a group or pair. Lots of people were here. A fun social place to play pickleball with friends, or in a league.

I just went back to Activate for the second time. This place truly feels like the future of gaming…read more I'm 30 years old and still left feeling like I got a full cardio workout in... but with a huge smile on my face the entire time. What I love most is how interactive everything is. Each room is private to your group (up to 5 players), so you're always playing with the people you came with, no awkward mixing with strangers. It makes it perfect for families, friends, or even a team outing with coworkers. The Mega Grid is hands-down my favorite and the main reason I keep coming back. It's fast-paced, challenging, and ridiculously fun.If you're looking for something different that gets you moving and laughing, this is the spot.

Activate is a super fun, high-energy experience, but plan ahead - especially at Mall of America…read more First tip: give yourself plenty of time to find it. We arrived about 30 minutes early and still felt rushed. The mall directions led us to a first kiosk, but Activate is actually on the third floor, so that added some confusion. When we arrived, there was a fairly long line. I had pre-registered online using a gift card, but at check-in they initially said I owed the full amount. I had to ask them to locate and apply the gift card I had already purchased. Once that was sorted out, each person in our group had to sign in separately, which takes a few minutes per person. They did provide a free locker, which was great. I highly recommend putting all jackets and hoodies in there - you will get hot fast. Once signed in, the instructions are very brief, but easy enough to figure out as you go. We were a group of six and hoped to play together, but had to split into two groups. That ended up being fine because we competed against each other, which was actually fun. There are about 10 rooms, and each room offers multiple game options. Every game earns you points, and there's a large scoreboard showing rankings, which adds a fun competitive element. We went on a busy day, so we did have short waits for some games, but usually only a couple of minutes. One downside: I wish there were a water fountain inside the gaming area. You can't bring water bottles in, and while there is a fountain by the lockers, our one-hour session flew by and we barely had time to step out. Overall, we had a great time and would absolutely do it again. Tips if you go: 1. Arrive at least 30 minutes early to find it and check in. 2. Wear shorts, a T-shirt and running shoes. 3. Drink water before you start. Fun, fast-paced, and a great workout!

They were quick and responsive and everything was all planned via email which made things so convenient! They were straightforward about what to bring for the lock in. The night of, the girls had fun! Lots of space to run and around and be teenagers. All the girls had games the next day, so they came in and all said something about the temperature, some were too hot and some were too cold. One common thing was if they just had blankets on the floor, they were cold. The other minor thing that could be improved - online waivers. I had to manage all the parent waivers. Overall, a great experience! When we went there was only rock climbing and archery available - that said they got their fill of those activities, so we probably would not do it again next year.
