Went with my nephews the other day. They just loved it they had a ball. I loved it because there was not that many people there. I love this so much, I took my brother and sister the next day, and they also had a ball over there, we just love the Cherry slushies.

Took my 2 youngest kids earlier today around 4pm to ride the smaller rides at blackbeards. All the girls in that area did a wonderful job! The supervisor in that area did such a great job! Such a fun girl!! Made my experience at blackbeards very wonderful! Have to go again soon.

This place has zero social distancing practice during these times. Over 200 people in the building without masks!! It was insane. Literally walked in and left as soon as we seen the amount of people. I am suprised this place is not even placing guidelines even if it is an outdoor facility. Many young kids ; groups of kids without masks risking other people lives and nobody enforcing mask requirement policy. This place needs to be shut down ASAP.

Fun place to take the kids. Needs some touching up, definitely showing its age.

This place is horrible. The customer service is horrible and management does not know what they are doing. They closed down the kids fun zone just because they did not want to work and when they did service us the lady was being rude to our children just because she had to do her job. I expected actual customer service especially on my sons birthday. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE, PLEASE AVOID!!!

Love that this place is open so late! We can play outside and wait until the heat goes down a bit. Three different mini golf courses to choose from. Plus the batting cages and the mini race car track.

This is doing covid. So with that being said. It was fun . even through the waterslide were not open. But to my surprise, the racing cars and bumper boats. Golf and some aracde games outside which was affordabel. Like to token. Buy the wY great buy on the tokens. 20 dollar got u. 110 tokens. The 8 games that were open outside. Was an easy win so lots of tickets available to redeem for gifts.

Great place, some decent values... customer service was like a 1 Star rating though. Literally was the only one at the window and the workers were more worried about gossip than my food or drinks.

Review №31

Some machines are on need of repair. Game are out dated. But still has that nostalgia Feeling.. Could use more workers to keep it running like it should. Be way better. Overall still great place to take the family. Or just hit some balls in to batting cages. Or great place to take a date.

Went on the speedway and half of the cars barely move. Might be time to retire the bad cars seeing that they have 20 lined up and only run the same 6 cars.

Review №33

Went mini golfing and had a nice time. It was really quiet there but nice enough. Could use a little upkeep on the grounds but I am sure that might be because its the offseason. Lots of ducks around. ♡

Review №35

One year ago my son was fighting cancer and was spending weeks in the hospital at a time and he missed his whole freshman year of high school. So Blackbeard’s is part of the IAPPA program and we are so blessed to be able to be apart of this program that partners with certain theme parks around the world for children like ours to just be able to enjoy everything no charge/or a reduced fee. This program is just amazing and it really makes the kids feel so special and they are able to enjoy a great day. Blackbeard’s is part of this program!! The park was pretty empty so the kids felt even more special because there was no waiting. We loved the mini golf I definitely recommend that and go-carts. The arcade was amazing and we won a lot of tickets. The kids loved the slushees and snacks. I wish the water park area could of been open it looks like it would of been a blast! But because of the Covid-19 restrictions it wasn’t able to. It reminds me of just a fun family place it’s great for little kids and even the older ones. It was a little bit of a drive for us but we will definitely be going back in the future. Also the staff was all great and just overall very nice. There were 3 gentlemen working the go-karts later at night and they were just very respectful. You could tell they knew what they were talking about explained the rules and they just stood out! Thank you Blackbeard’s for giving our family a great day!

Had a great time with my family and friends. It was the first time most of us had been to Blackbeards, and it didnt disappoint We really enjoyed the arcade, bumper boats, and we really loved racing the Go Karts. It was by far the most fun we had all weekend. We will definitely be coming back! Definitely recommend.

It was a wonderful experience, but when we were getting our miniature golf paid for the lady dropped my credit card into a metal box with a lock on it?! We were waiting in line to get our card back for 20 minutes, and the staff didn’t even seem to care that we just wanted to play golf and no have to wait in line just trying to get the damn card. But besides that it was a great time just dont pay with your card

Review №41

Went mini golfing, had a great time. My only issue was we got a drink that we thought has free refills and werent told about it. We had asked what type of Iced Teas they had they told us Unsweetened and Raspberry. So we got Raspberry and when we went for a refill they said it wasnt covered but I explained what happened and we got a refill. The board should specify which beverages get free refills.

Review №42

Finally a place to take your kid. Safe, and free of dumbdumbs! For years blackbeards has been a staple in family entertainment. Went miniature golfing with my youngest son. Unfortunately, the cost for this was 26 dollars, ouch. I remember a time when my mother sent me to blackbeards at about 12 years old with ten bucks. I rolled the slicktrack, the waterslides, the arcade, and the minigolf. Then, still had 1.50 fir some nachos or a soda. Maybe im gettin old.

Review №44

I wish I can say more about this establishment, but its really going down hill. The place needs a make over, although the staff was nice, the food was not so great I could of made a better burger at home the fries were warmed and reheated too many times. Too much money spent not enough accomadations met...

Great family place for birthday parties! All the children and adults had a marvelous time! My niece rented the room at cap n kids for her sons birthday. Pizza drinks and cake. Yum! Then off to the rides.

Review №49

This place is so much fun. I’ve been going here ever since I was very little. I used to go to the batting cage here a long time ago. And play mini golf almost every time I visit this place. It is sad to see this place go down hill. It is not as popular as it used to be but they’re still chuggin along. I hope it doesn’t have the same fate that Boomers had earlier. Keep this place alive!

Great place for family fun! For 20 bucks you get about 100 coins. 80 coins plus a 20 coin bonus. Its mostly 2 coin games. However I didnt get to see the prices of their mini golf. I do recommend a day trip or a few hours!

The place is pretty fun, but be ready to spend a couple hundred bucks if youre going to be here very long. Its pretty expensive to do the activities, but inside the arcade is all right. 40 coins for 10 bucks and just about everything is 2 or 3 coins.After we played mini golf, thats right about when we got to the counter to turn our stuff in. The lady, skinny, brown hair, brown eyes, was standing around and staring at us while she talked away with her coworker who hadnt noticed us at all. I said very loudly, yes, play with your hair and ignore us like we dont exist, and I believe she heard me because then she stomped over to the window and snatched the golf clubs from us then said bye and I said ew really loudly and blew vape smoke at their window. So I would just throw the clubs in there and walk away next time, but otherwise, decent place to enjoy yourself.

Cant believe this place is still here. Took my 9 year old there and 10 year old nephew. We had a blast. Although the park was a bit in need of an upgrade, it was great to see it almost exactly how it was back when I was their age.The staff was very nice and very helpful. We were bummed that they only run the water slides on weekends but had fun doing other things. A good time was had by all.

I love it here and will be a visitor for life. It reminds me of good times, friends, fun in the sun,and lots of great photos . I can look back at them to this day and see the change in myself, family, and wardrobe change throughout the 20+ years...lolI also rescued the best cat / companion ever from here. He lived from 2003 till 2018 in loving memory of Sunny.

I haven’t been to Blackbeard’s in probably 20 years but went back today for a company picnic and really enjoyed my time with the family. It felt clean and safe and the employees were helpful and friendly. My kids enjoyed playing mini golf as well as the go carts. We also spent a lot of time in the arcade trying to get as much tickets as we could. If you haven’t been in a while, I’d recommend checking it out again. I’m glad we went.

Great, fun, cheap arcade. Love how it is still old fashioned looking, not all updated and techy. Go karting is $12 per person, but you get in a lot of laps. Food is alright, but youre not there for eating, youre there for fun. Entrance is free. You can never go wrong with mini golf.

I brought my two grandchildren to Blackbeards and would do so again. It is easy to walk and there are many places to sit down while the kids are on the rides or playing laser tag. Keep in mind that the slides are only open during the weekends. The lines go fast and the ride just long enough that there is fun and a quick turnover in the wait. I found that all of the employees were genuinely helpful and nice. Make sure you check online for their coupons with specials on the pizza deals as well as the purchase of tokens and entry fees. The value for your money is great and I would suggest purchasing the pizza meal deal with the 100 tokens. The video games and the games themselves are diversified and fun. Overall the park is very clean. As my grandchildren are older we did not use the kiddie rides; however, the children on them looked like they were having fun. Anytime of the week would be a good day to come to Blackbeards!

It’s a blast to come here, I came as a child and now I bring my children. The batting cages are the main attraction for me and my children, but usually a few of the batting cages are out of commission. The Staff is friendly and helpful. There are many other outdoor things to do there like miniature golf, go karts, bumper boats and roller coasters so go check them out

It’s a little outdated but that is what makes it cute. My only complaint is the staff is slow to respond. You ring the door bell for the batting cages unless they have one dedicated person you will wait 5-10 minutes just to check out and grab your license!!!

Review №97

I absolutely love this place. I drop 20 in the machines every Saturday and take about 150 swings in the baseball batting cages, every Saturday since January. Needless to say, it has improved my game. This past weekend my friend broke an aluminum bat, just normal wear and tear, nothing crazy. At first he thought they were going to make him pay for it because that was the initial communciation but they waived it immediately once realizing it was just normal wear and tear. Excellent company, excellent staff. It was Marissa, I believe, that dealt with loyal customers so courteously and professionally.Raises all around, says I.Keep it up. I am coming back every weekend either way. Thank you to your staff for all they do.

Review №99

Used batting cages for child, but again management really isnt properly maintaining pitching machines. Balls are traveling faster than speed posted, but whats worse is ball comes to high to most kids. Better off going to a real batting cage. The kid working was very polite, especially having to watch several things in the park.

Been coming here since I was a kid, love everything from paintball, to the batting cages, and the arcade itself is very fun! Great place to spend the day or to kill an hour or two!
