      I booked a private laser tag game for my son's birthday. To book the private game you need to pay for 14 persons and you have a private space in a lounge. You may bring a cake and pizza outside for the party.

      Had the best time with my 14 year old godson. The food prices are outrageous $4.50 for a bottled coke!! Stairs are a bit much after running around use of the elevator would be nice. We are trying the paintball at the other location next Sunday

      Came here to play laser tag for a friend's birthday with a group of 14. At first glance, I was underwhelmed by the props that they had as they seemed low-budget. However, I was shocked by how much fun I had here. You get your wristbands at the door which indicates the color of your party. The experience involves 3 rounds of game time and they rotate through the parties, announcing the color when it's your turn.

      We got really sweaty throughout the games so I'd recommend wearing dri-fit clothing and sneakers that you can run in. Each group gets a sectioned area with a table, seating, and a clothing rack so you can even bring clothing to change into if you don't want to stay in your sweaty clothes.

      One thing that did negatively impact our experience was the faulty guns. The reload button on some of our guns didn't work properly and required multiple clicks before it reloaded. This got a bit frustrating during the game.

      Nonetheless, this was a great group activity and allowed me to see some of my friends' competitive side.

      Found a good deal on Pulsd and glad to be able to experience laser tag at this arena. Parking is not bad nearby on a Friday night . Kids definitely out ran me in the laser tag. Cool spot to hang on top with air hockey, games, fooseball, etc. beer and wine for purchase. Definitely worth the money and will be back

      Booked a trip. They changed the time without communicating and then asked us to come at a separate time which was completely inconvenient due to them waiting till we get here to inform us that our time was changed.

      Everyone is clueless.

      amazing place for kids. we had a lot of fun here. my only complaint is my son sprinted his ankle jumping in the ball pit. it looks a lot deeper then it really is. and on my visit i watched many kids do the same thing. they really need to fill the ball pits to a safer level for kids

      We prepaid for 70 combo for 90 middle school student. We were scheduled to depart at 12:45. Our pizza was brought out like this at 12:40. Our drinks were served in pitchers with small cups. 1 pitcher was soda water. Shame on Area53

      It was a great time; however, we arrived 15 minutes early to the opening, was the 42nd person in line, and it took a little over 22 minutes to enter. They absorbed a good amount of time while waiting one cashier.

      This is an excellent place for kids. My ​daughter absolutely loves it here.​ The atmosphere is engaging and welcoming. The staff are extremely welcoming and attentive to the kids.

      Re rollerskating: This venue is really dangerous for skating. The concrete floor is uneven and the columns and barriers throughout make for unpredictable movements by other skaters. I fell here during a rollerskating night and dislocated and fractured my shoulder. I need surgery and am told I'll be lucky to even regain half my mobility. I've skated in many other places without any issues, but experienced life-changing damage at Area 53.
