**This is a review for two visits!**Having just moved here my husband and I have been trying to find places to take our son for family outings on the weekend. We heard of Frankie's and decided to give it a try! We walked in my my three year goes, "Wow, it's cool!". We went outside and did two rounds of go carts and then headed back inside to play some games. There are a ton! Many different age groups for the games too. We avoided the big playhouse thing because of all the bigger kids playing in it and we didn't want the three year old to get trampled. After spending an hour or so inside we left. We loved it so much we promised our son that we would come back again soon. Enter the next week. We are from Buffalo, NY so when work was canceled when it snowed 2 inches my husband and I were itching to get out and do something. We packed up and decided to take our son back to Frankie's. We were literally the only ones there. Which we expected. Our son really enjoyed the playhouse. It is MASSIVE! The employees were very accommodating for us. We tried out the little snack bar that they have there and we were impressed. The service was exceptional. We were not expecting the food to be out instantaneously because they only had a handful of people working the whole park. Still, a manager came by and apologized for the wait and gave us 10$ on our game card. We played a few more games and then headed to go home. Overall for both visits we were very enjoyable. It is a bit expensive but we will probably be back often once the weather gets better so we can enjoy more of the outside attractions!
We are glad to hear that they had a good time! Look forward to seeing you again!
Go Karts (three levels of skill) Very good indoor arcade and climbing challenges for all ages. Full Bar and Pub food setup (The drinks are not cheap but they don't want you slamming $3 margaritas while the kids are playing) Pretty doable if you are on a budget if you use some restraint. I liked the batting cages although I stung my hands pretty well in the cold weather.
We are thrilled to see that you enjoyed your experience and look forward to seeing you again!
I went with friends, I really liked it, I hate that they closed the drift car at the time, so I rode the other one, kind of expensive! I would go back but not constantly
Went with a group of friends (mid/late twenties) and had a blast! Mid week there is low traffic, so we were able to have fun and stay out of everyone's way. Mini golf competition between guys and girls, the guys spent time in the batting cages, and we played some arcade games. The only negative was the staff - very unwelcoming, unfriendly, seemed like it was a bother to purchase our round of golf and get clubs - would rather chat behind the counter or in the back office than help paying customers.
We went here while we were passing through NC last summer and the kids had so much fun! We didn't get to explore everything because we didn't have enough time. The only draw back is that it can get real expensive, real quick. I will definitely take them back when we are in the area again.
Adventure landing is a crowded, much older alternative om a super busy street. As far as these places go it's ok but has always been super crowded so waits for car rides can be a waste of time.
We need more Frankie's in other States. I moved to Maryland and there's no Frankie's! This would help the population (low-med income families) that cannot afford to get in the gate at the big amusement parks for one and it help give more jobs especially since the unemployment rate is high. We can budget for 4-6 people to Frankie's 2-3 times a month vs going to " big amusement parks" 1 time a year. We can have more all year.
The arcade, mini-golf course, and go-carts are all amazing! The food was also great! I used to go to Frankie's more frequently when I was younger, but I will never forget how amazing it is. Very fun place for families since their kids can blow off all their steam with all of the available activities. I highly recommend this place for a kids birthday party.
