The Great Highway is a unique venue in San Carlos that features classic cars and an old-timey sock-hop-era vibe. We are obsessed. From the venue floor, to the pinball games on the second floor (with casino games and setup as WELL.. gotta bring in your own dealers etc. for that), a mic and music setup with popped popcorn for our guests.. oh did I also mention there's a whole DINER that you can rent and have your caterers make shakes and floats?! I was born in '92 but this venue has me wishing I was around in the 50's. Roz was incredibly thoughtful and knowledgeable about how we should throw our holiday party. We brought in a third party caterer but everything else was so seamless and efficient on the ground. Junior and The Great Highway staff are so hospitable I wouldn't hesitate to refer anyone here or even throw next year's party here ..

The lot is small (10-15 cars) and street parking on the same street is also limited. Street parking one street down has a one hour limit. I spent 15 minutes circling around looking for some place to park without a limit, making us late for the event. The party itself was two hours but felt very rushed, as if the employees were just going through the motions to get us through the play arenas into the party room.

From the moment we walked through the doors, the owner, Janine, was there for us in every way possible. When I say she was a big help, I truly mean it. Janine helped us set up everything -- the tables, food, backdrops, kids' snacks, and even a special Build-A-Bear-style station I created for my daughter. She also helped us set up our soda pop station and made sure everything looked great and ran smoothly. My family arrived late (Polynesian time, as always ), and I was so incredibly grateful that Janine was there helping us every step of the way. I honestly don't know what I would have done without her support. She went above and beyond -- helping cut and serve the cake, assisting our guests as they arrived, checking in on us constantly, and making sure everything stayed clean, organized, and stress-free. Most importantly, the kids had so much fun. The space is perfect for toddlers, and the joy on their faces made the day extra special. Janine, thank you, thank you, thank you. You are so kind, thoughtful, and truly passionate about what you do. I appreciate you more than words can say. Blessings to you and your business -- I pray you continue to have abundant, fruitful success throughout 2026 and beyond. Thank you again for hosting my daughter's birthday party and making it such a beautiful, memorable experience. We will definitely be back!

My daughter absolutely loved it and had a wonderful experience at Imagination City. All the kids who attended appeared to love it as well and the adults got to sit back and relax knowing the kids were preoccupied in the play area. The staff was incredible with assisting with sit-up. They also allowed us to drop-off items in advance to ease our burden on the day of the party. Everything was organized, clean, and in quality condition. The only negative is having to go offsite to use the bathroom. Other than that, we had no complaints and highly recommend having your kids birthday party at Imagination City!

They were just starting the grill to cook the food for lunch but our girls were hungry so we left to get food elsewhere.

Poorly organized and your kid better have thick skin…read more Disappointed in the summer camp program (can't comment on the regular school year classes). To sum up: 1) a stressed instructor trying to put on a play with 25 kids in one week at a cost of good vibes and empathy; 2) unprofessionalism due to an overlooked conflict of interest and 3) poor communication. This combo resulted in our 6-year old, who loves acting and singing and was very excited about this camp, on day 3 refusing to finish the 5-day camp. As confirmed by the instructor, she lost her role in the play, which she really wanted and loved, because she started crying and had a hard time stopping. There wasn't enough time (or empathy) to deal with tears, so our daughter was sidelined. To the point of unprofessionalism - the meltdown was triggered by a perceived ongoing unfairness of favoritism with the teacher's kid, during games and when participating in the play. A good example - a number of other kids (not ours) had wanted the lead role, so it was "auditioned," with the teacher's kid going first and being given the lead role by her mom, a clear conflict of interest and easily avoidable. Then because of poor communication, it took two days to talk to anyone to understand why my kid was removed from her role. The contact number takes one to voicemail, and then a full day to get a callback. So our daughter tearfully urged us that she didn't want to go back anymore (and we didn't make her).

The gym has endless opportunity for fun and challenge. Our 10 year olds did not want to leave.

This is a great place to come to if you have a high energy kid that needs to burn their energy off…read more My son has recently taken an interest to American Ninja Warrior and Nina Republic has obstacle courses set up that mirror the same obstacles you would see on the show, which is really cool. We came by on an afternoon during open gym - you pay a flat fee to get up to 4 hours of playtime. While there are some staff members present that might give a bit of guidance on how to go through the courses, it is relatively hands off and you are on your own. Parents can sit on the chairs on the side to watch, but can also go on the mat as needed to assist their kids. My son really enjoyed his experience here - when he started off, he could only go halfway up the warped wall but after a couple of hours of practice, was able to reach the top with his hand. He is already looking forward to his next visit here so he can try again. Everyone wears their outside shoes on the mat so I think that takes away a bit from the cleanliness of the place, especially on the type of rainy day that we came by. Bathrooms could have also been a bit better maintained - paper products were running low and soap ran out as well. Not a huge deal as we could work around this, just something that could be optimized for an even better experience.

It's also a better fit for the older kids, those that are 7 and up. That being said, if your goal is to physically exhaust your child, this is a good place to do so. We attended a birthday party here and there are lots of party rooms available throughout the venue so you have concurrent parties happening at the same time. Each one is timed to 2 hours so you'll hear the staff come on the intercom at times to announce when your party's play time is over. Our party room was upstairs, which was convenient, because the parents could stay at the top of the stairs and have a birds eye view over the entire gym and spot where the kids were. Parking can be a bit limited here as the spots fill up quickly, but we were able to find street parking a block away.
