Highly suggest for your next team builder!

My dog, Emmy, and I are absolutely obsessed with this park:…read more* Sports and/or movies playing in the big screens (yes--multiple!) * Clean and very well-maintained thanks to our amazing, friendly East Cut Ambassadors * Delicious tacos, tortas and gyros * A cute playground for the kids * Have I mentioned the cute kids?? They're SO sweet and always ask to play with my dog. * A beer garden for the grown-ups with amazing bartenders--Arthur is basically Sam Malone meets Ted from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure * Boba and Brew always get my order wrong in the most endearing ways possible. I ask for a croissant--they give me a cookie as if to quietly suggest, "I know you think you want a classy, French pastry but you need chocolate chips in your life." * Free Wi-Fi The vibes are amazing here. This park is literally the cure for depression. It's like being transported into a John Hughes movie and your neighbors are grown-up John Cusack, Molly Ringwald and Matthew Broderick.

The problem with the place is that there is not enough bathrooms there are only 3 bathrooms and they are single occupancy. They should really have stalls in them instead big bathrooms.

If you stay under the cabanas, you're 100% guaranteed shelter from the sun and wind. Parklab is actually just a quieter version of Spark Social, which is right across the street, where most of the food trucks are located. There is mini golf available at Parklab but the customer service was very lacking. Honestly they should really do a better job with hiring young people -- they act like they couldn't care less about you participating or not...

All teams make it to playoffs, so it is a pretty long season. You can play a maximum of 4 games per match. Starts at 7:30 and goes until at least 10:30 most nights. They have a really good website and post updates on Facebook as well, so it is very easy to get information. All the board members have been very responsive to my millions of questions (we started a new team this season). They also have a lot of additional tournaments throughout the season to keep your competitive juices flowing on non-Tuesday nights. This league is BCA-sanctioned and qualifies you for the May BCA big shinding (this year at the Riveria, will move to the Rio in 2012). You've never seen so much pool porn in your life than at the BCA Vegas - rows and rows and rows of bar box tables, separate rooms of full-sized tables, pros mingling with the oh-so-not-worthy masses... two weeks of events, mini tourneys, gadgets and pool equipment...

We planned to play this past Sunday, and everything went smoothly. Communication was detailed clearly via email, parking was even easy to find the day of according to their instructions, and we enjoyed the carefree atmosphere the entire time we were there (fairly private and quiet since there are only two pickleball courts on site). Only problem was that I never received the gate code to the courts neither via email nor text message... so yeah that would have been a problem if someone didn't open it from the inside at my reservation time. I emailed them about this later, and they were apologetic about the mishap and quick to give me a refund. I appreciate their attention to the matter and effort to make things right.

Lollyland came out earlier this year and is located in the Palace of Fine Arts next to the…read morepickleball courts. I'm familiar with the Palace Escape Games, but this venue added a nice whimsical and colorful mini-golf experience with an escape room twist to it! The experience can accommodate groups of 2-6 players, takes about 75 minutes or more to play, $30/player, and no experience required. You can make reservations in advance or do walk-in. I first became familiar with Lollyland through social media and thought it looked really cool. When I arrived, Lollyland didn't look as big as I had expected, and I thought maybe there were more courses behind the walls. Unfortunately, there were only 8 holes but what made this place unique is everything was run by tech. You get to select the appropriate club for your height and it notifies you when it's your turn by lighting up. Each hole had a special mission that players can achieve and after completing the hole, the team would receive a secret clue, which will be used later on. As a true Yelp Elite, I read other Yelp reviews stating Lollyland gave free candy. This wasn't quite the case during my visit - they had a vase of Dum Dums, but as soon as those were out, they did not refill them. I asked one of the staff members where the free candy was and they said management changed it and it depends on when they get a shipment. This was disappointing when the mini-golf theme is "Lollyland" and mimics a "Candyland" theme. I docked a star for this and the limited number of courses. It's a great spot to take kids, hang with friends, date night, or spend with family. If any of the staff members read this, please consider expanding the number of courses and incorporating more variety of candy and having it more available as part of the experience.

The section you play in is pretty cramped. It's not quite traditional mini golf, it's really more like arcade mini golf. It was a nice fun twist on things. You don't really do some problem puzzles til the very end. Wished there were some more of those elements incorporated into the experience. I also read from some earlier reviews that there was candy and stuff. But I guess too many people took advantage of that. There were no candies when we played sadly :( All in all it was fun. Just wished there were more holes and more spread out. Also wished it was shown more clearly who. That element was lacking a bit

Not often does a 20 handicap get an invitation to play but I enjoyed every shot and each putt that sank into the hole. My only regret is that our round lasted 4 hours and the dream ended so quickly! The history of being the oldest athelic club in the US also is pretty sweet. But, nothing compares to the iconic "Burger Dog" which is the best experience at the half way house and guys are lined up to eat 2 maybe 3 of them! Afterwards, hanging out in the clubhouse was a memory that will last a lifetime! There are no words that haven't been said about the course, so I'll just say, that it was pristine to play it! Dreams come true.
