Go carts were amazing and super fun!!! Definitely go for the track with more turns- makes carting and racing friends so much more fun. Good prices and they made sure to clean the carts after every use- very COVID precautious. Cant believe we have lived so close for so long without going. Excellent date night location for new couples and old.

The go cart track had so much dirt and debris on it. Completely ruined what is usually a great time! I had to go to the bathroom to flush my eyes out. PLEASE clean the track before someone really hurts themselves.

Its small, we only did the arcade. There was a storm shortly after we arrived so Im not sure about the outdoor attractions.The games are a mix of old and new. Truthfully this is aimed at teens to younger, I took my teens and its a good distraction for an hour or two.

My family had so much fun here. Im not sure how the crowd normally is, but we went on a Monday about 1pm. When you enter, you walk through the arcade to a deal with food and drink options on the left and your amusement options on the right. We didnt have to wait in line and there was no one immediately in front of us on the putt putt course. We were able to play both courses in about 3 hours with a break for slushies in between rounds. As for the course itself, it was fun and challenging. All of the holes are intended to be 2 par with max of 5 to keep things moving along. The landscaping and waterfall were beautiful with turtles swimming and dragonflies flying all around. It seemed like they could do a little grounds keeping, but nothing major. All in all, we had a great time and the pricing wasnt the worst Ive seen either.

Had a good time. But prices have went up greatly since last time of going. Also we had to wait until 1:30pm to do the go carts. Then they turned on my gocart governor in the middle of a race which caused me to lose my race. Not ho

I dont give this place five stars because the lighting in the parking lot was terrible. Mini golf was fun and challenging. Employees were attentive and helpful. Also its a great place because its right next door to an Arbys and after a hard 18 holes of mini golf, I was able to just walk over to the Arbys and pound down 7 roast beef sandwiches... and 1 diet cola.

Best place to take your kids when they been stuck in the house and need to get out putting was what we did and it’s safe and you don’t have to worry about getting to close to others so we really enjoy this place

Impressed for sure. First time back in years and they have done a lot to update the grounds. I played 18 holes of putt putt and the course was great. They were adding new plants while I was there. All new video games inside and new go carts outside.

Lots of fun. We went for mini golf and were surprised that they had two 18 hole courses. We played the west (staff said it was the hard one) and it was tough, but fun. The landscaping was nice. Not too crowded on a Thursday night and the breeze helped keep us from getting too sweaty. Staff was friendly. Looks like they had a lot of cool stuff to do.

Not bad, really enjoyed it. Everything is well priced, but I was worried about the people not having a mask on. Overall great quality, you should go if you havent.

Basically a fun park for kids, the only thing for adults really is the driving range. I called and asked if the range was open The guy on the other end said it was, when I arrived there was nobody in the range office so I went inside to the arcade and the lady in there told me the range was closed because It rained the day before. I dont understand what rain has to do with a driving range but it would have been fine if I hadnt driven half an hour for nothing.

Review №18

So the point of this establishment is to go out with others or family to have some quality bonding experience? So for our office of 10 we “thought” that’s what we’d do. First was the go karts, we spent $80 but one of our karts was deficient even before we left the bay. By deficient, even after it died in the bay, it didn’t even make it around the second turn. By the time track attendees even noticed, the group had lapped 3 times. So by the time a replacement kart showed up there were two laps left. You would think that our group, the only ones on the track and no one waiting would be offered a second round to do it all together. When this idea was brought up to not one, but two managers on duty, all that was offered was one comp’d ride. We had planned to do every activity which would have made them modesty three times the revenue. That was explained too... but still just the one free ride. I guess it was our fault they had deficient equipment.

Has potential to be a good time if properly run. Went on the go karts and had fun until the end when a small child (under the height requirement) drove full speed into the back of my go cart causing a chaon reaction of whiplash. The workers just shook their heads and carried on as if it happens all the time. My son then refused to go back on the ride in fear of getting hurt again. When I spoke to the supervisor inside he jist put $8 back on my sons card. No apology. Also, it seemed like there was no actual manager on staff. Mini golf is great because you arent effected by the lack of parenting at all of the other attractions. If you care about your kids, I would recommend not going if its busy or at all.

We went here the other night to play putt-putt. As we went to walk into the building, we noticed we were required to wear face masks. We had forgot our face masks at home, so no big deal, we were going to leave. But before we left, I went up to the guy working the front door. And ask him if my full face motorcycle helmet would be suitable enough to get me in through the door, till I was outside and didnt have to be wearing a mask. he stated I would need to get a managers approval. When the manager showed up, I showed him my helmet and ask him if this would be suitable. he said unfortunately not. I said my helmet is as good as a face shield, it keeps all of my particles from my respiratory system inside my helmet. he replied with sorry we are masks only. I said that doesnt make sense, because a face shields block just as many particles as a mask and my helmet blocks more particles than both of them. he then in a very unprofessional manner told me that if I had a problem with it I could take it up with North Charleston who is requiring masks only. to which at this point I was done arguing with ignorance and left.these times through this covid-19 pandemic are hard enough. but having people in management positions that dont understand PPE make it even worse. I do not recommend this place based on the way management chooses to facilitate the facility.

Visited with my two teenage boys. Prices are reasonable and there’s tons to do. Go-carts, arcade, two Putt-putt courses, Virtual reality roller coaster. All of the staff (teenagers to young adults) were VERY friendly and helpful. My eldest son is autistic and they took their time explaining things to him and helping him with the go-cart harness, etc. I’d certainly come back.

We go here all time and love it. Awnings are great so you can go virtually in any weather. Prices arent outrageous like others. It being a 5minute drive away from home makes it that much more appealing. Cheap Fun for everyone, & of course good enough for pro/amatuer crowd.

Review №30

It’s for kids not adults. The only thing I come here to do with my significant other is play golf, other than that nothing. It’s miniature golf not even real gold but it’s fun and we tend to have a good time.The food it’s way overpriced for something out of a box- again expected for a fun park. I wish they’d let you bring non alcoholic beverages in but they don’t.If you are looking to get better at hitting the ball in baseball they have great baseball cages to practice- other than that as stated this is geared towards children and teenagers- not adults.

Review №33

Its a fun park...and its fun! Ive been going to Frankies for years! Its a typical fun park, so expect high priced games that allow you to win tickets for prices youd rather just pay the money for. But thats the fun park experience. They have modern and retro games for adults for kids. Its a great place to take the kids or to just be a kid again.

Review №34

Family friendly place. My 2 kids (8 and 5) love going. Even my 5yr old is able to ride in the go-karts (passenger of course). Place is a LOT cleaner than any chuckey cheese. Only reason its a 4/5 is because the arcade selection is a little lacking (size/selection). But, again I can take my kids and have an absolute blast.

Tons of up to date video games as well as putt putt and 2 go cart tracks. And in the summertime they have bumper boats with water cannons. Its fun for the whole family. Dont forget they also have a batting cage and a driving range

Review №37

Its really fun. It has a medium sized arcade, currently it has a virtual reality game that can do up to 4 players at once. My favorite is the wizard of oz coin pusher. The piano game is where you will get the most tickets for the money you put on your card. Its not crazy expensive but still a little pricey. Anywhere between 1$ and 5$ per arcade game per play. Its 8 for the virtual reality. It also has go carts, batting cages and small pool and putt putt. Definatly a good afternoon.

I went to the driving range during the day so it was really quiet and had a good time. The non turf area was really over grown so we ended up having to go to on turf. But the staff was nice and there was plenty of space for many people to participate.

We celebrated my sons birthday here. He had a great time. He loved the go-kart and hologate game. Great place to go if you have a walk in birthday party. The staff was very nice, they let us use their freezer to store the ice cream until the party. Will definitely recommend this place.

Excellent mini golf course and driving range. The park is definitely geared more towards children, but there is still some fun to be had for adults as well. The driving range prices are a steal and they even offer lessons. Very polite staff and very clean facilities. I’d recommend to any one looking to take their family to a park that has arcades, go karts, mini golf, batting cages, and other attractions.

Great place for a family to go on a nice day. Even on a bad day the arcade is great and the food selection is pretty wide. The outdoor amenities are amazing but a little pricey. I guess they have to make things a little more expensive since it is never busy. But great experience and fun time.

Had a ton of fun. We did both of the golf courses. The west one is much harder then the east one, fyi. Also did go carts. Im a big boy and I fight fine in them. We got a longer time to ride them than we expected. It was awesome. Definitely a fun time and can easily burn a couple hours of fun for a reasonable price. Check it out

We visited here when we were visiting from Florida and we had an absolute blast my kids had so much fun yes we spent an abundant amount of money but I think it was fair for the fun that they had my kids especially like the VR virtual reality Part the best I think and the bumper boats and we actually went on a slow day so they got to play Everything and didnt have to wait in lines

This place is definitely geared more towards children. Some places like this have games that are fun for adults or some of the holes are a little more challenging but all the holes were a par 2 and the games all seemed slightly shrunk. Im sure its wonderful for kids and it wasnt bad for a casual afternoon.

Review №61

We love this place and come here all the time for birthdays but this time when we came the person that the attractions desk said that only one attraction was open because they were very short staffed however there were people racing on the road course, playing with bumper boats, and playing mini golf be eventually got it started out but really guys. Aside from that its clean the bathrooms are nice the people are nice.

Review №63

It isnt a bad way to burn some time but it is over priced. The games are good but there is no reason for them to cost so much. $10 will be gone in about 10 minutes. I sure the fact it was cold outside added to the typical amount of people inside but this place was crowded. The machine to check and add credit to your card was broken when we went, that made it even more unpleasant as you were getting ran over by all of the people that couldnt be bothered to watch what they were doing.I would encourage you to go there and play put put golf but nothing else.

You have a higher chance of winning real money in Vegas than hitting a jackpot on any game in their arcade. The games are designed so you fail and spend more money.

To the woman at the prize counter, if you’re going to have SUCH A NEGATIVE attitude when guest are picking out prizes, maybe find a different job. You work at a “FUN” park. $90 spent on games so that this woman could demean my children and I while picking out prizes. Frankie’s, you should be ashamed of having people like this in your venue. Disgusting.

We brought our 5 year old for a night out. While we were getting ready to start the 18th home of mini-golf, the we got to witness 7 baby geese hatch! It was a really cool experience The rest of the night wasnt as eventful, but the staff was great and whole place looked like it was being run very well. At the end of the night, our son wanted to cash in his tickets for a prize that he saw in the display case but they said they had run out of that one. The girl behind the counter said that they needed to get that one out of the display case anyway, and that he could have it. Instead of saying sorry, youre out of luck she went and got the manager to open the case and made a 5 year olds night! Thats customer service! Well done Frankies! Keep hiring people like this!

We just went to go play a round of mini golf. This place is not very kept. They should have the employees check the grounds first before they open. The golf greens were a mess and full of goose dung. They pretty much left the geese there run the whole thing. Inside had cool games but way too expensive per game. I cant speak for the other attractions but this place seems to be going down. We might come back for golf as this is the closest place but thats about it.

Its changed a lot since I was a kid and the recent additions to the arcade are very nice.

Had a great experience here. Tons of boxes to hit from. Nice range for only $10-Big Bucket! Only a few small downsides, range only markers up to 175 but that isnt to big of a deal if you working on aim and loft. Need new rubber tees if you want to hit off the mat, hard to find a good one that will actually hold the ball right. Overall, I will def be back, not to mention, beer is only $3.75!

I had a blast going with my family. The highlights for me were the racing and VR, but overall I had a great experience. The only thing I would have liked would be to pay a set amount instead of going back to recharge a card, but regardless it is highly recommended!
