    Agree with the other reviewers. This planetarium is a real hidden gem. When we went it was not at…read moreall crowded (quite the opposite), but it was mid day during the week. The presentation was beautiful and engaging, and both parents and kid enjoyed it. Parking is plentiful and nearby (and free). There's even a nice cafeteria across the courtyard.

    Dare I say this might possibly be one of Chambana's best kept secrets…read more My husband and I just moved to Champaign five weeks ago and I stumbled upon the Staerkel Planetarium while using Yelp! to find "things to do in Champaign." Yay! What isn't there to love about a planetarium? (unless you're prone to motion sickness :-P) We visited at 9pm on a Saturday night for one of their Pink Floyd shows. The young woman selling tickets was very friendly, as was the gentleman (i assume a member of Parkland's faculty) who took our tickets and introduced the show. There were about a dozen other people of all ages in the dome with us. Plenty of seating. Show lasted an hour. Honestly, this is the best $6 you'll spend in the entire county. Talk about a great family friendly, friends or date night out, students, scout troops and more! Appropriate for those aged 1-101. My husband and I would like to see all of the shows they're offering throughout 2018 You can save $3 if you buy tickets to 2 back-to-back shows (total $9 per person). I think we'll do this next time. Facility was very clean and well-maintained. Big parking lot next to the planetarium. Three different shows are offered on Friday & Saturday night at 7pm, 8pm & 9pm; matinees offered during week beginning in June. Check Parkland's website for exact show titles. You can also pickup a 2018 summer show brochure at the planetarium if you're on campus. We'll definitely return. We're so fortunate to have this in the community!

    Up until yesterday I had no idea this place existed. I came here for a private event and we were in…read morethe private room known as the outlet. At first glance, it reminded me of Dave and Busters as it was riddled with games galore and a bowling alley! The private room was spacious and came with a bar, a place to play bags outside, a pool table and a basketball goal. As people trickled in, I shot some hoops and played a couple games of pool. The food they served was standard bar fare: pizza, t-ravs, salad, pretzel nuggets, buffalo and cheeseburger sliders. Surprisingly, the food was pretty good but the cookies were trash. The people working the event were friendly and attentive. I wish we had a chance to play games on the outside but maybe we'll get the chance the next time we're in the area. Overall, it was a solid visit.

    If I could rate this place negative stars I would. First of all, servers are supposed to be going…read moreto the bowling alley section. We waited over 30+ min and finally had to ask someone for service. 1 server came 1 time after that. Continuously had to ask for someone to come back to our section. Second, when asking for someone the manager, Tiffany, would get upset because that meant she had to stop eating in the back and actually help. Third, after waiting multiple times of our balls getting stuck, they would add extra time, but the extra time would take that amount of time for someone to come (but of course, YOU HAD TO ASK, and then when we tried getting a refund, it was basically "go screw yourself" from Tiffany. Fourth, when asked about a complaint card the bartender says "ask Randy" and walks away with no insight. Mind you that's after spending so Much money on games for half the machines to be broken. Edison's is a complete joke and waste of money. Customer service isn't like it used to be. Fuck this place. And fuck you Tiffany.
