Miniature golf is a great outdoor activity for the kids and family. However, Boomer does not enforce mask wearing. They have a big sign that says masks required indoors but about a third of guest are not wearing it. Also there are only bathrooms inside the building and you have to buy tickets inside. We are in a pandemic, they can open the restrooms outside. And they can sell tickets outdoor. They have plenty of space. read more

We had a ball! Actually a 4.5 is a better refelction: Notes: -Purchase a pass ahead of time online for a discount plus 50 arcade tickets. First Responders, vets and others get a pretty decent discount ($33 total instead of $39). We also ended up purchasing a $50 arcade pass on site which gave us 300 play credits. Here is the link on the various deals: https://boomersparks.com/irvine/tickets-and-deals/ -Plenty of parking. Nextdoor is Irvine Bowl (separate from Boomers) -We played mini-golf, rode a few rides, rode Go Karts almost all day, and played a whole bunch of arcade games. Did not do the water bumper cars because we didn't want to get wet, laser tag (just forgot), or the battling cages (we suck at that). We spent six hours there. -All employees were great and very helpful. Felt safe too with on site and visible security person who patrolled the grounds. -Place was fairly clean and attention was devoted to keeping the bathrooms cleaned and stocked. -Some of the arcade games did not work correctly and will need some attention. Many are dated but still fun classics! -The usual awards for when you cash out your tickets. The kids like it. -Mini golf has two courses and got plenty of play. Holes were actually challenging. Lots of slopes! Both courses need a little maintenance. -Food and beverages on site seemed expensive to me, but then everything in the LA/OC area seems expensive. Glad we went and will return. read more

Drove down to Boomers from Fountain Valley. We wanted to do the Batting Cages however most of them were out of order. They had 2 cages working both slow pitch. Not acceptable. If I was the owner I'd be extremely upset. read more

Always problems with thier batting cages. They either don't work at all or get jammed up in the middle of a session. Tired of asking for refunds. At $4 per round you would think they would have the machines well maintained. read more

The mini golf course was so much fun and there were a lot of different obstacles that ranged from easy to difficult. There are two different colored courses so you can pick which one to start with. Even though there were other parties, we did not have to wait long since we were all at different holes. This is friendly for beginners and also for experts!! It is a great place to hang out for the day since there are so many more things to do besides mini golf such as arcade games, batting cages, lazer tag, racing, and more! read more

Boomers Irvine - Boomers card - Amusement Parks Near Me - Irvine, California

I went there many times with my family but sadly I have a dog so I cannot go there as much. The employees are not rude but sometimes they are bad at measuring children's height. The first time I went here was my friend's sibling's birthday and we had a fun experience. I like the outdoor then indoor because the indoor is dark so it is hard to see. In outdoor there is are two thrilling rides. One of the ride spins you up and down but I would not recommend it. When I went there last slow spin felt like torture rather than a thrill. The other ride is better because it the line is shorter (about 10 people per ride) and it is less scary more thrilling comparing to the other ride. It is also somewhat educational, because it teaches how to ride a car to children while having fun by letting them ride on miniature cars designed for children. But overall it's an okay place. Nothing special. read more

Came with my family and had a blast! The Crew were great. So friendly and welcoming! Definitely will be coming again. Special shout out to Manager Katie who made my daughter, Lisa, feel so special for her birthday! And to the bartender Megan, for serving the best drinks. Cold and strong, woohoo! 10/10 experience. read more

This is a small fun place to go specially for kids. Took my kids they had a blast it's not that big but if your local it's a fun little amusement park to go and let your kids have fun for the day. it's does get packed on the weekends best time to go is on a weekdays. read more

Nattily was a great help and very professional, she's the reason I will be coming back. Thank you

I mean, it's Boomers, you probably know what you're going to get haha. We came here for the batting cages (great date idea btw) and a lot of the machines were pretty janky haha. A few worked, but when the first one we tried didn't the employee who distributes the cards, started the time over for us, so that's good. I thought the pricing for an hour was really fair, so it made it worth it for 2 people to share. You get a bat and helmet with it and you can switch up batters and locations (with each spot having a different speed for baseball, and there's a softball option as well). I'm sure I'd be back, now that we've gotten over the learning curve of using the card. read more

First time visiting this place with my family, I am truly upset. There's a sign outside that says masks mandatory even for those vaccinated yet no one inside or outside in the back was wearing masks but us. The lady who helped us (Laura) at the front desk where we made our initial purchase was so rude even after I told her that it was our first time and we didn't really know anything about ordering. Customer service is HORRIBLE here. There's so many young kids working that have zero respect or hospitality for families. Anyway we made our purchase and headed to the back where the attractions are at, and the kids helping there were very unfriendly and looked like they were forced to be here working. We just wanted to have a good time and we're pretty upset. Not coming again. read more

Boomers Irvine - Mini golf .. - Amusement Parks Near Me - Irvine, California

Grew up in Irvine when they just opened Palace Park. The place has come a long way since then. I don't come here often but bring kids once in awhile. I think they've done a good job renovating the place. Place got much cleaner over the years and the arcade section is pretty top notch with the newest systems. I can't really comment on mini-golf and ride section outside since we come here solely for arcade games. While the systems are pretty well maintained, they are mostly ridiculously priced. Arcade games go for $2.50~$6 a credit for literally 5~30 seconds of gameplay. it's plain ludicrous. You would expect at least a few minutes of quality play at that price but nope. I also don't get why they charge to just have an empty game card ($1), then you would add balance for games. It's like really? games aren't expensive enough that they want to charge for charge cards too? I get that running a facility of this scale probably isn't cheap in Irvine but this is just wrong. I know I am the sucker here for sinking money here because my little ones like to come sometimes but the management just seems so greedy... read more

Great place to spend a rainy day with the kids. We bought the season pass, so we feel like it is a good deal even on a rain day. The laser tag alone can get enough energy out to give your day a boost. The only down part is the arcade is a little expensive, but if they could drop the prices in some of the games that would make is more desirable on a more frequent basis; or a $5.00 reload each time for season pass holders and/or possibly an option to turn tickets to tokens. Other than that, if it wasn't a rainy day, there are so many things you can do for a quick outing. read more

Boomers Irvine - Ice ball - Amusement Parks Near Me - Irvine, California

The prices went up. The membership used to be $40 per year. Now with $39 it only gets you 3 attractions. Lame. So over price for what you get out of it. We enjoyed the mini golf but other then that it was not worth it. You can go to an amusement park for the same price and more attractions. We will not be back. read more

Great place a lot of fun.. game for the kids and Adult as well. Tech, family and friend in the future. Highly recommended.

This place was absolutely filthy. After much begging they finally cleaned an epic spill off the floor that was extremely sticky and caused three people to slip. There were plenty of empty tables but they were piled high with garbage and old food. We asked someone for a tag so we could wipe down the table and they insisted on doing it, leaving behind crumbs and stickiness. They have is a raw funnel cake and all three hot dogs we ordered were completely burned. My toddler has to use the toilet and every single toilet stall was riddled with garbage and it smelled nasty. We didn't even make it to the games inside; we just gave up. I spent my entire youth coming here and now as an adult it's sad to see how filthy it's gotten. read more

Wanted to take time to write this review : 1st off my daughter just turned 16 and wanted to driving time at the go karts and enjoy sometime with her friends and enjoy family. Well when I checked inn . We couldn't find the employees to check us inn for her party . Which was almost $700 total ! Isn't cheap at all .. We couldn't find one person , took almost 15 mins waiting around . And they are so strict about timing of the party ! We booked it 6-7:30 . Which they only give you an hour and half to rush a party when their wasn't any other parties booked that night . Literally pushed my entire family out at 7:30 pm ! It was crazy .. Food : Wasnt worth the amount we paid , barely had any taste . Best thing was the salad I paid $30 for ... Omg and they closed the park almost 20mins earlier when it's posted . Started to push us out and it just felt rushed on everything ! Beware with booking parties here ... specially if you want time ! I spend $700 for a really bad experience and will never return again ! read more

I took my son and niece, both 7 years old and they had a blast. We went midweek during the summer and the place was dead until 2, so the kids had a blast read more

This place is so dirty ants on the tables. It's like there's no one that cleans. Bathroom are even worst. Half the ride didn't work.

Fun times. I did the wristband thing for hours of fun. It is a great value vs disneyland. They have gonkarting and other smaller rides as well as your typical mini golfing attractions. Not a bad way to spend a few hours with your kids. read more

This place is ridiculous! My husband, 5 yrlear old and I went to ride a couple rides she is tall enough for and play in the arcade. Absolute ripoff. It is $16 PER PERSON PER RIDE! $48 for a family of 3 to ride 1 ride?!?!? Absurd. The arcade wasn't any better. Never again. Can't speak to the food or any of the other activities, but after this experience, never again. Bowling next door was way more fun. read more

Very clean and nice workers. First time here and the managers were very helpful when I looked lost. read more

Boomers Irvine - Amusement Parks Near Me - Irvine, California

Such a scam. Sitting areas are dirty and ignored by staff. Rides are broken down, barely a step above carnival quality. They're charging so much money but not maintaining or staffing enough to keep the facility clean and functional. read more

I took my camp to this place we spent over a thousand dollars and service was poor. They stuck us in this room that smell like paint. They only had three attractions open, the tea cup, go cart , and the swing. Once I compliant more ride open. After eating the food a few of my campers compliant of having a stomach ache. Never again will my camp go to this place. read more

Awesome time at a birthday party. Games were so much for the whole family! Staff was friendly and facility was clean and cool.

Not worth it. They increased the price most of the rides are closed. Water is for 5$ and nothing much to do except for the car and the line is too long. Kids cars are old and cranky Not recommended read more

$15 to watch my daughter circle a tiny race track for 5 minutes. The Junior Go-Karts are complete waste of time and money. $5 for a bottle of water. Most arcade games are broken. A total scam. read more

It was fun here with my family! There are different attractions for everyone of all ages, including the young kids. I recommend this place for families and younger people. read more

Long wait times for anything interesting. Took me 2 hours to get in the go karts. The food was overpriced as well, $20 for a burger and fries no drink. read more

this review is based off of the food area only. I forgot to get the lady's name but she was working at the register around 12p.m on 25, July 2023. I never had someone take my order while munching on chips while making my drink. She was eating while i was ordering drinks and didn't have the courtesy to stop chewing while i was ordering. Her attitude was also very poor and improper, but the place itself is a 4.5 stars! read more

On a Saturday afternoon, instead of heading to Camelot I decided to take my son here for a round of miniature golf. I figured it would be cool to change up the usual course we go to and try out a new spot. Well, I should have stuck with what I know is good, as this review is going to dive into the sad mini golf course Boomers has to offer. But first I will talk about some positives. They have a decent arcade that offers a lot for the kids. It is one of the better arcades out there but I still like to go to Camelot for their Saturday Morning Madness deal. Games can get a little pricey here so be aware. They have a decent snack bar and they also sell some brews for the dads that want to wash back a slice of pizza with a cold one. But lets talk about this poor golf course. Most of the holes are set on a slope which means your ball is always going to gravitate toward that and you will end up against the bricks on every hole. I played two of the three courses and found the turf needed a lot of love. Most of it was torn up and was not smooth at all. The fountain that runs through it was not working which took away from the atmosphere. Most of the holes were all very similar and there was not a lot of cool holes you would find at a mini-course. I won't be coming back here for mini golf. Maybe I will come back for the batting cages or for the mini water park they have to check that out. But if you are looking for a good mini golf course, you will want to pass this one up. Come on Irvine you are better than this! CHEERS!!! read more

Boomers Irvine - Courses need some TLC - Amusement Parks Near Me - Irvine, California

To say the least this Place is ok if you really bored and have nothing to do. We just came Saturday and the lines were long the workers were ok, they were polite.but overall we paid $60 dollars for 3 rides... cup bowl, water ride and cup bowl again because the go karts line was about 1 hour. Not worth it. Few rides were down and not working, would never come back to this place. read more

Love the bumper boats and the go carts. Brought the entire family here from out of town

Great place to take the kids to hang out and play. From Laser tag, little water boats, miniature golf, batting cages and arcade the kids love it. The only reason why I don't give them 5 stars is because the food wasn't great and they are short staffed. Other than that it's a good place for the kids. This venue is also clean. read more

My child had a great time. Angie who was our hostess went above and beyond helping. She was amazing. Everyone was so nice. It was worth every penny. read more

Happy New Year!! 2019 is here and we just got started with more reviews. What an appropriate way to start off with 2019 with a BOOM! My wife and I let go of one our Annual Passes and brought two more to our Theme Park Portfolio. We enjoy our adventure to another form of entertainment to bring more of our kid spirit out. Let's go to BOOMERS in Irvine. Located on the southwest side of the 405 Freeway in Irvine off the Jamboree Road exit and about a mile south on Michelson Drive before Culver Drive, you will find Boomers! It will be located to the left of the bowling alley. If you drive up and down the 405, there are two BOOMERS! How convenient?! You can have fun at both parks in Fountain Valley and in Irvine. After visiting a local arcade/amusement park and having unlimited game play, I wondered if one of the bigger chains offered a similar program. Truth behold, Boomers offered a Season Pass Program. Since it was the Holiday Season, Boomers, conveniently, had a Holiday Special on their Season Pass for $41.99. In 2019, we are going to have a lazy day where my wife and I don't want to go to the bigger theme parks or drive too far. The Boomers/APEX Season Pass gives you access to all APEX Theme Park Locations. APEX even includes SpeedZone! The Season Pass gives you access to unlimited rides to the Go-Karts, Merry-Go-Round, Flamethrower ride, Boat Bumper Ride, and unlimited rounds to play Mini-Golf and Laser Tag. When you walk in from the parking lot, you will be walk a long halfway with a bathroom to your right. There are a vast amount of games to win tickets or simply challenge the highest score to replace your name with. If you continue walking straight out, it will lead out to the back area with many options to choose from. One day, I will cross my fears on the rock wall. In addition to the Season Pass, I opted to get the Add-Ins to my wife's pass. It includes a Souvenir Bottle and Popcorn Bucket. You can get unlimited refills of soda, popcorn, and Cotton Candy...ALL YEAR! Boomers concession stand offers Dippin' Dots, pizzas, French fries, and lots of fan fare foods. If you have the Season Pass, you can get discounts on food. Even my wife was surprised that she had a $10 Boomers Card that was good for either game play or for food. Her Boomers card paid for her Frozeti Confetti Dippin' Dots. Well, the Season Pass value has gone beyond it's value. In one visit, the Season Pass paid for itself. You'll need the pass when those hot summer days or just need to get out. There are more benefits we are waiting to use such as the Easter Egg Hunt, Halloween Nights, and many more fun nights at all Boomer locations. I did not know there was a card option for a year. I thought it was more of a DAY ONLY type ticket. Boomers was an unexpected Season Pass to our theme park venue, but it will be for 2019 when we just need to get out. Now I am eager to visit all the other Boomers and even SpeedZone in the City of Industry. Ready...Set...GO!!! This Yelp Voyage is my novel. I write to share the experience and for you to interpret it. My guidance is through you. It is BECAUSE of you that I want to recreate the same experience. The end result is success because you made me share my story. Yelp your story every day! read more

Great time! Bumper boats are so much fun, we took the whole family out and had a blast!
