Arcade games
Robert R.

Frankies fun park is one of the best local amusement parks in the area. They offer two mini golf courses, batting cages, bumper boats, a couple go car tracks. A perfect place for families and everyone. They also have a large indoor arcade, as well as food and drink. Great place for birthday parties as well. So hop in your cars and head to Frankies for a fun filled day.

It is as per its namesake a fun park indeed. Went there on a Saturday morning in December. Lowcountry weather so we just both had light jacket on. We started with a round of mini golf with 18 holes. It was really fun and I would say have a mix easy and hard courses. ($10/person) Went to the batting cage after and tries for a round ($3/round) Played some arcade games after the have a mixture of classic and new age VR games. Had nice nostalgic fun with super Mario cart and played this one VR shooting game . It was lots of fun. Will be back soon :)

Great place to spend time with family and friends. We played games and ate food. Overall we had a great time. If you haven't been go! Take a family, friend or yourself.

Great fun for the family or a date! Lots of outside activities & games inside! The food is ok, but the activities should be the focus. It's been around since the early 90s & is a safe establishment

Came for a birthday party the outside patio area is very cold outside feels so much better. The prices are very expensive the go carts cost $9. They even closed the kitchen early because they said not many people was there so I guess our guest wasn't enough

This place is not just fun for the kiddos. It's fun for the adults too. They have batting cages. I haven't done that in years and was so much fun. They have 2 different go kart tracks, bumper boats and an arcade. I'm the arcade is a VR setup that was tons of fun. You could spend hours in this place and have fun every second. Love it!!

Over all we had a fun visit. Some part of the facilities are clearly aged and due for some TLC. When trying to decide which activities we wanted to participate in, the cashier was no help in explaining the difference of the road course vs the drift course. She also told us cash only, and watched us struggle to see if we had any on us. Only layer to see that the machines to reload or purchase cards did accept cash. It would have been nice for her to Direct us there in the first place. The battling cages were cheap, $3/16 pitches. The machine malfunctioned and we didn't have to wait long for staff to come fix it. They even gave us a free swipe since we didn't get all the pitches due to malfunction. There are no sanitation options with using their equipment (helmets and bats). The road course was fun, lasted a good amount of time but don't really go fast and we felt sized more for children. The inside VR was pretty neat, $9 for about 10 minutes. Played a few arcade games, not much variety but still fun.

We had so much fun here. Everyone working was so nice, and one employee noticed that my little autistic grandson was holding his hands over his ears while we were paying for our cards and came over and offered to turn the volume down on the music. That meant SO much to our family to have employees who pay attention and care. My daughter found his little noise reduction headphones, and he was fine. The kids won prizes, we all played games, and it was a great time out of the SC heat. Highly recommend!

Prices for activities

My boyfriend wanted to stop by to use the batting cages. I haven't been here in years! Money for all activities is loaded onto a card, which is convenient...and easier than trying to keep up with coins. Each round of the batting cage is $2 (16 balls), which isn't bad. They offer pitch speeds ranging from slow pitch softball to 70 mph. The driving range, go-carts, rock climbing, mini golf, and bumper boats are the other outdoor activities. There's also a covered seating area, which is a great space for children's birthday parties. They have a nice variety of arcade games. Each one we played was $1.50. The arcade did have a strange odor, kinda moldy and old. Overall, we had a great time.

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.

Hit the Jackpot!

Who says arcade games are just for kids? I've been going to this Frankie's for over 10 years now and this place has always been a good time. This park is one of the more fun places to hang out in Charleston if you like games. The Arcade: They have mostly ticket and prize games. Some of their unique games include Flappy Bird, a huge 4 person Pac-man air hockey game, Connect Four, Kung-Fu Panda, a gigantic pac-man machine, and many more. There's also your typical arcade staples of Skee-ball, basketball, and regular air hockey. From their skilled prize games, you can give up to 30,000 tickets, Beats Headphones, or MP4 players. All the machines use cards to swipe instead of coins. If you have enough tickets, you can exchange them for prizes at the front. Outside, they have a lot of outdoor activities including a full range golf course at the very, very back of the park, putt-putt, battling cage, drop zone, and bumper boats. Each activity costs about $7 or $8 a person. I personally love the 18 hole putt-putt course, go-carts, and the full range golf course. With a group of 3 or 4 friends, the putt-putt course can provide up to an hour of entertainment depending on how bad you are. The go-cart course is a lot of fun because it's fairly large, the karts go reasonably fast, and they give you about 4 minutes of play time. The full range at the back is pretty cool if you want to improve your golf skills or just want to wack a ball with a stick. I usually spend about $20 here between the arcade and outside attractions so except to spend about that much and more if you have kids!

Not a great value, typical kid employees that could care less. Could be much better with some attention.

Do u need clothes toed shoes for go kart riding?

Yes

What ages for bumper boats?

It's not really an age requirement since it is based on height but the boats haven't been open in a while due to being seasonal and staff shortages.

My husband likes to play arcade games so after a game of putt putt, we'll venture inside to play a couple of games.

My family was gifted a SC Aquarium family membership. My wife and kid have been a couple of times,…read morebut I finally had the opportunity to come with my kid. There is a lot to like about visiting. My interactions with staff were all very positive. How nice and personable staff were really stood out for me and my kid. We came on a slow Sunday afternoon so parking was decently easy at the garage across the street. Since this was my first time everything was fun to see for the first time. We loved the otters, the large tank with mermaids, and the touch tank. My kid also loved the indoor playground which we spent a good deal of time at. I really love the blend of semi-outdoor areas and the sundeck area. I really loved the variety of fish and animals. It was also really cool to see the snowy white barn owl downstairs. I am not sure how I would feel had I bought tickets to visit and it will also be interesting to see how often animals change which makes multiple visits fun and interesting.

We enjoyed our visit to the South Carolina Aquarium overall, but it didn't quite live up to our…read moreexpectations and it was VERY pricy. The exhibits were clean and well maintained. The staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful. That said, we expected more for the price of admission. The aquarium is smaller than we anticipated, and we made it through everything fairly quickly. It's a nice stop if you're already in Charleston, but I don't know that I'd make a special trip just for it.
