Very fun. Driving home o Atlanta we stopped for a little break and rode the coaster which was a blast. Everything was super clean and everyone was wearing a mask so you definitely will feel safe etc.

This place is so fun. Only thing I didnt like is you have to have adult supervision in laser tag if your 12 and below. So the ride is 8.00 for one person plus 8.00 for the adult supervising. My son was tracking down adults at 6 yrs old unsupervised a beast. This is crazy. Who came up with being 12 and below need supervision?

Took my son here a couple of weeks ago and we really enjoyed our time. They have a lot of arcade games as well as go karts and other attractions. It doesnt cost anything to get in but each game/ attraction has to be paid for. They have a bowling alley and also a place to eat. The price can be pricey if you allow. We will be back to visit again

Definitely a great place to go for the family! They have a little something for everyone there and I would recommend calling to see what their specials are for today. Some days they have half off!

Awesome place to cut loose during the pandemic. Felt safe to enjoy the bowling at only four bucks a game, including shoe rental. The bar attached was also really affordable. Id definitely recommend stopping in and kicking back.

This place is awesome!! So many different things to do. The bar in the bowling alley has a great selection of beers and games. The mini golf was super fun and half price on Mondays! The course and overall facilities are clean and well-kept. There was an hour wait for bowling but it looked really fun. This is just a cool place to go with friends or the family.

Malibu jacks is what we consider a hidden gem for the locals. Great place to grab a drink at unbelievable prices! Sean always provides exceptional customer service going above and beyond for his customers!!! Can’t wait for football season in the BBN, Malibu Jacks has one of the best setups in town to enjoy a game.

Went here during Covid regulations were in place. They did a great job limiting the total amount of people inside to decrease contamination.They are also careful to keep the games and rides clean. I saw employees spraying and wiping down go carts after use. The other rides were also regularly wiped down after use. All employees wore a mask, and customers are required to as well.I think Malibu Jacks has handled the pandemic very well!

Such a fun place!! My 11, 7 and 5 year old had a blast. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They did an amazing job of cleaning and sanitizing areas as soon as a customer left an area. Highly, highly recommend

Fill your playing card for 50 and get credit for 60. The card itself is free. Arcade games, mini golf, go carts “medium speed at Best”, and bowling. My tween had so much fun.

This is our second time visiting Malibu Jacks. It is well worth the hour and a half drive! It is fun for all ages (our kids are 9, 11, and 13). There are many different options and something for everyone in the whole family - no matter their age! It makes for great memories. We are already planning our next trip :)

Came in on a Saturday at around 8 pm. Its a good time to come because there arent as many kids running around, so its also less crowded. We bought the $100 game credit to share amongst four people, since that gave us the most bonus. You can use it on rides and games.We started with the go-kart, which was fun but it was a long wait. I think you get about 3 minutes or so on the track. We also did one of the simulators, but it gave me motion-sickness. It was still pretty cool though. They have a huge selection of games and a lot of them have more than one machine, so thats nice. We wanted to check out the bowling alley too, but there was a 3-hour wait, so we werent about to do that.Definitely a fun place to spend a Saturday night. The arcade games bring back a lot of fun childhood memories.

Procedures have changed drastically,i assume due to covid-19. Very confusing and staff struggled with customers explaining what was available when and where. They did do their best with the situation that they were handed.The facility was spotless,neat and well operated. A great safe and modern amusement for children.

Me and my daughter had a blast will definitely come back if you all had a few more options for food there is no doubt in my mind that gatti Town would not be any competition for you all I could see you all running them out of business next door .

Very clean facility with lots of choices for all ages! The beach area for kids ten and under was especially impressive. All you can play for $10/child. Lots of fun elements to play on and bounce on. My kids would live there if they could

Great place to take the kiddos! Several rides and games to choose from. Not many rides for toddlers. If youre planning on riding very much Id suggest getting the $100 card because you get $30 free with it.

Amazingly friendly staff, great social distancing and cleaning protocols in place. My 5 year old son had a great time driving and going to 4D Jurassic Park, but he said his favorite stuff there is the games like the Whack a Mole like game and the Bowling!!

The customer service for birthday party was terrible. I stood in line for over 15 minutes to pay the day of the party, while at least 4 other employees stood around talking. When I expressed my desire to pay and get to the party they said only one person had the “drawer” and she was helping someone else. The someone else had a tremendous amount of questions and was planning a future party. My party was going and I was missing if because of the disinterested employees. I asked where the pizzas (order placed days in advance)were while I was waiting in line. I was told they would check. About 10 minutes after asking I asked to speak to a manager. The “teen” manager with zero customer service knowledge said he would check and reported they were going into the oven now. So ordering ahead and placing a deposit is worthless venture. I questioned the “manager” he said it’s for the freshest pizza, sir please you waited for the money. With only one person who could collect the money and 4-5 others socializing you have created a miserable experience for the parent trying to provide a fun time for a birthday. If you leave teenagers to run the place I am not surprised at the horrible customer service.

Took the family here today and had an absolute blast. Family of 5 and got the $100 deal. (They give you an extra $30 with purchase) We played for almost 4 hours on just that. My son wrecked his go-kart and didnt want to finish the race. They honored the $7 ride for him and put that back on the play card. PLUS gave him an extra $10 card!! It was extremely clean throughout and they follow Covid guidelines properly. Everyone has a mask and each ride was wiped down and cleaned often. Well worth our money and we will definitly be visiting again soon! Thank you to the staff for your kindness and professionalism! You guys are doing a great job!

We spent a wonderful day hanging out as a family. The facility is clean. The restroom was not only clean, but baby friendly. All the staff was very helpful. Finally, the lines were fairly short. Especially for a holiday weekend.

This was a great place to spend a few hours with the family. Might be just because its new but it was really clean inside. We had 4 kids and the grandparents with us (so 8 in all) and we bought a $100 play card with the $30 bonus. We were able to spend over 3 hours there without adding any money to the card. Rode the roller coaster, go carts, mini golf, and spent some time in the kids play area. I loved that the atmosphere was not too loud either. We could still have a conversation while we walked around.

Fun place to spend an afternoon. Very bright and clean, which I appreciate. Not too expensive though not cheap either. Go karts are $8, the 3D shooting game is $6 (I really enjoy this one), hologram game is $10. A lot of the individual games are a buck or two. Bowling area is really nice and only $4 per person (including shoes). Bar area has decent drinks though they definitely go light on the alcohol.

Review №43

Its a good place to go if you have plenty of money and patience! Everything costs so much and the people are not the most helpful. Theres not a lot of guidance if youre not used to how it works there; ie we stood in a very long line for apparently zero reason at the entrance when you can just get tickets and cards at any kiosk. Kids had an OK time and I guess thats what really matters, but for our budget there was a lot of telling them no and we were just surprised..

Was a great place to take the kids, they really enjoyed it! Everything about it, and the mini golf was fun for us as well! The food was pretty good, a little price on the food, but the gaming cards we got was like 20 each kid and it lasted them for about an hour or two. I would totally recommend this place to anyone who is looking for kid friendly fun!

We went here for our second time and we really had a great time. We drove the carts and the first lap was slow, but after that they started to go much faster. I took several of the turns on boost and skidded around the corners. We also enjoyed the 18 hole mini golf course. It has a lot of water effects including a waterfall and a fountain.

Review №57

My kids loved it. Like others have noted, there are still things under construction. I was looking forward to bowling but it wasnt open yet. I love the kids area in the back it is huge. Its for kids 10 and under an its $10 to play all day. My daughter was able to play free because it was her birthday. Make sure your kids wear socks to play in this area. If not, they sell socks for $1.00. Go carts were $7.00 one of the movie rides was $5.00, it can easily add up for a family. We did the $50 card and get $10 free and had a great time. Once everythings up and running this place will be awesome.

Took the family to this indoor mini theme park. Theres lots to do, roller coasters, virtual reality, arcade, laser tag, go carts, bumper cars, etc... the place was very clean and very family oriented for example the bumper cars have removable child seats so they can drive and the parent gets jostled around. The food is not fairly well priced, not the gouging high prices that big theme parks have. Oh, we really liked it.

Really nice place to spend time with the family and there is something fun for all ages. Granted it is a little on the expensive side but what isnt these days. Wouldve gave it 5 stars but we found a hair baked in our pizza!!! I know accidents happen but a quick inspection of the food before it is served can eliminate some of these accidents

Love this place! I have a 3.5 year old and a 1 year old and this place is a godsend in the winter.$10 for each kid to play in the play gym all day. They did not charge for my daughter until she could walk.Entrance/exit to the play gym area is monitored by an employee so kids cant just run out. (Kids should be supervised but especially if you have more than one they can get away from you quickly.)Kids can come and go with an adult and their bracelet.3 and under area.Play gym is clean and safe.Nice little cafe. But outside food seems to be allowed and they have more than enough seating any time weve gone.Even though the employees are mostly college kids, they actually seem happy to be there. Every single one was friendly and helpful.Bathrooms were clean and had enough changing tables.

There is so much to do here. A great place for families with young kids to play and tire yourselves out, or for going with a group of friends. Laser Tag was the most fun we had here. The go-karts have a random chance of getting 1 to 5 speed boosts, which we thought was odd. Otherwise, very friendly staff and a fun, safe atmosphere.

Kids had a great time. Saw all ages participating. Relax stations were there for those of us that are just let the kids play mentality. This means TV and chairs. Get rid of the lawn chairs and offer more comfortable seating.

Review №75

Pretty cool spot. Great place for kids. Be prepared to spend $50 per visit on games. Be prepared to also spend $30 on food and drinks. We drove down from Cincinnati, while meeting up with the in-laws. Our almost 4 year old was just tall enough for some of the games. Kids need to be 38 inches tall to do a lot of the things there.

This is a really nice place, kids had a blast as did me and my wife. They have a descent selection of rides which consist of like 6 or 7 all together, which isnt bad for a Indoor amusement park. They have laser tag and a big selection of arcade games. Youll need probably $200 on a card especially if you stick to just the rides. Rides are about $5 a rider except the go karts where its $5 a rider and passengers are free. Games go from $1 to $3 a game. You can stack up tickets from games and cash them in at the end of the day on prizes. Very nice staff so no complaints there. I guess the only downside is like any other amusement park, wish the rides was a bit longer. Laser tag is fun and is $10 a person. As mentioned above you put your money on a card and use it to play and ride in the store.

Review №81

Go Carts is always the first thing they do. Arcade is a bit stingy on a lot of the games, you barely get any tickets if you win. Even the kid games dont give you many tickets. There are other arcades just down the road that pays more on tickets, Malibu Jacks big draw is due to laser tag and then new Go Cart track, however if memory serves me correctly I do believe the old track was slightly larger than this one.

Its built on what used to be the k-mart. I went there last year for my cousins birthday. We had a ton of fun and ate in the restaurant right near it. Do they still have that bowling alley section? Nicholasville used to have the bowling alley, but they got rid of it. Makes me sad. :(

Review №90

I went here with family, and my nieces and nephews really seemed to like it. There is one ride that spins around fast that really needs individual seat belts, because when more than one person is seated, everyone smashes into each other and could get hurt. Also the ticket prizes are overpriced, and it would be nice if you could pay one fee to use all the rides an unlimited number of times.

When it’s cold/raining or you just don’t know what to do, Malibu jacks is definitely the move. They have food, laser tag, bowling, arcade games, go-karts, and a few rides. If you’re looking for a fun date night or family outing this is honestly up there on the list. Just remember to bring extra money because you’ll be tempted to spend it on all the games they have.

My family and I were in Lexington for a family reunion and my son decided to unwind at Malibu Jacks! This place was fun it had a lot of VR ( virtual reality) games ranging from 5.00- 10.00. The go kart track is a nice size and the bumper cars are fun. I was surprised to see a couple of coaster rides and a kiddie area with a bounce house. The prizes were pretty neat and the resturants and bowling alley were nice as well---25.00 for an hour per lane with 3.00 shoe rental was a nice deal. My son cant wait to go back today!

New! Clean! Well lit! We love to bring our 8 & 5 year olds here because there are plenty of things we can all do together - mini golf, rides, go-karts, bowling,carnival games plus arcade games. Additionally there is one on-site pizza cafe, with a larger restaurant/bar currently under construction.The prices are as you would expect but they offer special promos each night, such as two for one Go-Kart rides on Thursday nights, etc.
