Much smaller than I expected. Can get very expensive if taking a group of kids since you have to pay for each attraction. Small track for the go karts, but a lot of fun. They do not sell an all access bracelet that I saw. Would be much more worth the money if you could purchase a pass for everything.

The GoKarts were great. Fast, well maintained, and a lot of fun. If you are going for those, it is money well spent as my son and I had a lot of fun around the track. The young kid giving the instructions was clear and made sure we were buckled in and understood. Kudos to him!The rest was depressing. Over half of the arcade cabinets were broken with some missing screens, display lights burnt out, and others with CRTV tubes with extensive burn in from age.The prizes behind the counter were haphazard in presentation (not organized by value, theme, size, etc) and lacking in anything that would make you want to grind for the tickets. 90% of prizes are the cheap plastic items in most locations but there is usually that one or two really nice toy or electronic that makes you want to grind and sink money into the games. This lacked those items.Completing the haunted look was the eating hall with collapsed inflatable bounce equipment along with three dead game cabinets stashed in the far back under a fluorescent light. Outside the mini-golf course had aged astro turf that was torn, stretched, and broken lighting fixtures.There are better, cleaner, and more well maintained establishments like this in the QC area.

We traveled an hour to get here, we all were excited to be here, until we walk inside the building to purchase the tickets for the go karts and we were met with an older woman, she was extremely RUDE. There was no reason for her to be so obnoxious. After the karts, we walk in again to ask her very politely “can we buy tickets for the other games”? She responded in a way as if we are bothering her, she has a terrible nasty attitude. Now the kids she’s working there are so nice, but the lady is extremely RUDE.

Love this place, however today was a little different. Group of teens using the gocarts as bumper cars. Annoying to say the least. When your children are trying to enjoy the activity and have to keep having workers help get them off the wall. Happened three times myself.

Visited for 6 year old birthday party. Great place for kids to play and burn off energy! Lots of fun activities, many free with admission (bounce houses, jungle gym...). Other games for extra fee. Basic food and drinks.

Decent game room. Decent go carts when weather is warm. Nice batting cages. Couple bounces n trampoline basketball. Lil mini golf area. Can get expensive if you do everything.

Went here for a birthday party. The games use a swipe card to pay for them and it stores your ticket winnings. The pizza was pretty good and the games charge cents or dollars, not points like some places, so you know how much you are spending.

Review №17

Its okay. My kids enjoy the bounce house and play area. A little overpriced in my opinion. Many broken arcade games. Reasonably clean (not great) and safe. Needs some updating and repair. Feels like the ownership stopped caring about this place a long time ago.

Review №23

We mainly went here to play mini golf and thought it would be better for the kids since there is also other things to do.The mini golf course is a joke. The course is not kept up, the fabric is torn, the cups are broken, the paint is worn, the light fixtures are broken and filled with wasps. I was stung by a wasp. There are other places in town that have nicer course and are cheaper.We also witness an adult go into the bouncy item with his shoes on. Not once did I see a worker patrol that area.

Review №24

Tried laser tag and go Karting. Smaller laser tag course that is a bit dated. Two members of our group had to continuously swap vests during the match. The larger go kart course was a lot of fun, but they only allow you to drive for about six minutes. If they let you race for a bit longer, say ten minutes, the price point would be better.

This place is pretty amazing! Bouncy houses all over with basketball and a giant obstacle course, climbing wall and slide for Kids. Full arcade and batting cages. Mini golf and Go kart racing! Great place for all ages! Hours of fun and entertainment! Check it out if you haven’t already! If you have, check it out again! You’ll likely find something new to do next time! Love it here!

Michaels Fun world - my first experience with taking my children here to play was great. The prices were pretty reasonable considering all the different activities included. The staff were really nice and helpful and all had big smiles on there faces. One even gave my youngest daughter a lollipop and sticker. As far as the playing area/ jungle gym it was clean and well kept( Ive been to some places where it looks like they NEVER clean or sanitize the play areas, and it seemed to me like this was NOT one of those places. ) The bouncy houses were really big in size and the adults were allowed to go in also, which I admit was sorta fun. The game room was nice and had a good variety. All over, it was a good, clean, fun place to take the kids. It was a laid back, fun environment and I recommend it.

Review №33

Spent my birthday there, the arcade was fun but pricey to spend the most time in. The staff that was supposed to be looking over the jungle gym type equipment were mainly teens and did not pay attention. I ended up with a knot on my forehead because numerous kids werent lead through the entrances and exists like need be, due to poor supervision from the staff. The establishment did nothing after complaint. Would not recommend!!

Review №36

Fun place, but needs maintenance.We had a fun time here with the family, but for the prices they charge I expected the facility to be in much better condition. The indoor activities are housed in a couple of dimly lit warehouse buildings and the mini golf course is in desperate need of renovating. The go carts were fun, but again kind of run down. Just seems like not much reinvestment is made into this business. However, I would still go back for the go carts.

Very fun place. I went with my husband for the first time today. We played mini golf and arcade games. Was there for about 2 hrs. Mini golf is cheap...$5 a person. All the arcade games we played were 50 cents each. Cheap entertainment! Definitely will return

Great place to take kids arcade sucks, laser tag is fun, have to be a certain height to ride go carts by themselves. If they put QC Entertainment with this place and smack it in a better location it would rake in some serious money.

Review №71

This place has a lot of potential. The customer service is terrible and customers come third after their coworkers and whatever else comes up. Management needs to step up and give the employees some direction in how to give participants a great time. No suspended belief in the lazer tag, most things are in disrepair, and the go karts are nice however they could easily make it a fantastic experience.

Review №74

Floord are nasty got my new shoes messed up, batting cages have bad lighting mixed with dirty balls making it very difficult to see. Staff in batting cage was on his phone and wasnt paying attention. When we went in the main building the woman at the desk was rude because we interrupted her conversation with her friend while her friend also shot us a dirty look. If you can ignore the rudeness, dirtiness, and overwhelming cringe of seeing fortnite stations set up when you walk in and your not using the bating cages go ahead... Have fun

The ticket counter girl was nice. The greaser kid running the go karts was rude. He mumbled some rules, started my engine, and I slowly took off. He made a snotty comment to my son about me not waiting (which I didnt know about until later). The next ride he gave no instructions, I started to pull away and he nastily shouted at me to stop. Go karts were fast but overpriced.

Came here yesterday for a family members birthday party it was horrible from the start it was around 95 outside and no air was on inside the building so no one could enjoy the party since we were all sweating like pigs. We decided to do go karts after pizza (pizza was actually good) the first time was fun lots of smiles and laughing.Cake and ice cream next then decided we did not want to do golfing and wanted to do go karts once more before we headed out the employees who were working up there were very careless and did not make sure seat belts were on or tight enough for each child before allowing them to drive..my buddy is a bigger set guy and could not get the seat belt around him and the employees told him he did not need a seat belt and he would be fine without it... So we head out on the tracks and not even 30 seconds in my buddy flies out his kart and cuts his leg wide open on there rusty track the employees had NO clue what to do and were running around like chickens with there heads cut off!!! They were demanding him to get OFF of the track and forced him to walk to the side line with a huge gash in his leg and was bleeding out super bad! We literally had to tell them what to grab and to call an ambulance because the cut was so deep we could see his bone! Not only that but the employees lied and said they never told him not to wear his seat belt and said they did not allow adults to ride in double go karts but NEVER said any of this was against there rules until after he had got cut open!!!After the ambulance got my buddy and took him to the ER we stuck around for a bit and realised all of there signs with rules were faded out and we COULD not read them AT ALL. Anyways thats not even the worst part..after starting to just calm down from all this the Manager (brian) snuck up behind us as we were talking and started yelling at us very aggressively stating that my buddy was arguing with there employees about buckling up and not wanting to get out of the double karts.. For one my friend is not at all a person who likes conflict he is easy going very nice and shy!! If he was told NO he would have gotten out with no problem or hesitation..and if thats what the employees said why did they still allow them to ride together after that or ride at all? It was a huge LIE so after arguing about that with him for about 15 minutes and having him scream in our faces and call us liars we went up to look at the go kart he was on because our belts were not secure and some had missing buckles.. Well within that time period they had put them back on so we could not take photos!!! The manager was not the only aggressive worker there was another man I have on video who was angry and slapping the belts around trying to prove to us they were safe while yelling at us as if he wanted to attack or hurt us.. I still cant wrap my head around a manager acting in such manner. He did not once apologize for what had happen and blamed everything on us..he did not even introduce himself before speaking I was in shock at how unprofessional every single staff member was to us! Im so happy I have this whole thing on video I will never return here again and as far as my buddy goes he will be getting in touch with a very good lawyer this garbage place needs closed.

Its the only batting cages in town so i habe to give them the 5 stars for that. But please read this Michaels Fun World!!! We need a few more pitches per dollar coin. And you guys need to be open the batting cages earlier than 4pm everyday! Open the cages at noon. There are alot of people who want to get batting practice in at the start of February and your limited hours prevent that. Please please please consider opening at noon at the latest for batting cages!

I recently had my sons birthday party there. We arrived, set up at the table reserved for us and the kids started to play. Very soon after I notices a large amount of adults gathering around us. Soon there was 60+ people in the small area where our party was going on. We couldnt move around at all and I noticed the owners seemed to know most of the people around. I asked them what was going on, they informed me they were having a memorial there. I couldnt believe they would have a memorial during business hours. I received no phone call prior to arriving that day (I booked the party weeks in advance), they never informed us this would be going on when we arrived. I went to complain and they shrugged their shoulders and gave me a too bad attitude. Some people from the memorial even tried to eat our pizza and cake. Even they were confused about why there would be a birthday party during a memorial. We have had many parties there in the past, but it is clear by the lack of customer service that it is going downhill. Us parents with children having birthday parties there should be their target customer. They did nothing to make the situation any better for us, never even a sincere apology. I would definitely not recommend Michaels fun world for a birthday party.
