We had a great time and even though it was a Sunday, wait was minimal. Staff was outstanding, polite and compassionate with we two grandparents and 4 grandkids ages 6-16. Facility was clean and well maintained. We will return! read more

Every activity on this place is really poorly run and takes forever. A few of the attendants mean well but others are slow and they don't have any control on how the activities and rides are designed. The equipment isn't enough for the amount of people waiting to try them. The company has focused more on arcade games than anything else. I wouldn't recommend this place unless you like waiting 30-45 minutes to jump 2-5 minutes on a trampoline or do a water car ride or whatever other poorly managed activity. read more

Always a good time with the fam. We hadn't visited in several years, so we took our teens mini golfing. While it was HOT, the shady course was a nice reprieve. Could use some new turf in places and a new shipment of tall clubs since the tips on most were bad, but I was happy to see it was otherwise still as well kept as when hubs and I were dating in the late 90s. (Yet different enough to be new to us too.) Hinkle continues to offer a competitively priced good time for families, and in this day and age, that makes me extra happy. In fact, before going as a family, the kids had dismissed our suggestion of mini golf as a good date night for whatever reason, but after going as a family, one of the girls took her bf and they had a great time. read more

The staff made fun of a girl because of her skin condition and they did it infront of us other customers loudly and also loudly enough for her to hear. Ik that had to really embarrasses and hurt that girl it hurt for me. Sad they let that slide after I said something to the manager (I swear that wasn't the manager tho) they just shrugged it and said nothing they can do. So made me really think if I bring my child that has a disability you're gonna shame my child in front of everybody and my baby???? And let it happen? No. read more

I took me, my wife, and my 2 kids here the other day and they all loved it good prices and the employees were amazing for the most part. We mostly spent our time playing mini golf, bumper carts, and in the arcade. In the arcade area there should be a more selection of games but after we finished and wanted to collect our prizes an employee named "bean" was so helpful at the prize counter made my kids so happy and excited to be there and was so patient with them.(he also helped find my older sons AirPod case). Overall this was an amazing experience I will come here again!! read more

I went with family as a group of 13, ages ranging from 3-70. Everyone had a great time!! Some did the pick three attractions and others did unlimited. I don't think we have all laughed together and had that much fun together ever! Every age range had a wonderful time! We stayed from 12-5 and were busy the whole time! Waits weren't bad and the staff were all young and very nice! The only opportunity I would say is food/coffee options! I could've used a hot Starbucks coffee with all that craziness and the food is nothing to write home about. Those that could eat gluten said the pizza was good. Fries better than nachos and they give the smallest amount of popcorn. You don't go for the food though! The attractions were worth going... just allow outdoor food/drink... that would make it so much better! read more

This was the spot to go to back in 1994 when it first opened up. It was absolutely magical and I remember how exciting it was each time I played games here as a kid. The Hinkle family fun center offers that same magic to this day. Well they are no longer using tokens and have moved over to the electronic game card, they still have some of the classics that I remember playing growing up. We had such a fun time exploring their new options for games while enjoying some of the classics. I was even able to bring my daughter here so that she could play the games that I grew up playing. This is the ultimate game Center and it offers a little bit of everything for the family with plenty of entertainment. read more

THEY DO NOT HONOR THEIR COUPONS!!!I got sent a free birthday pass for my son's birthday.We went to redeem it and the link was broken. Instead of them honoring it or try to make it right, Adam (could barely understand him because he was out of breath the whole time) turned us away and blamed it on the company who sends the emails and my email. He was extremely unhelpful, unwilling, and unprofessional. After he rudely left a card with the marketing managers email, he walked away and then after just walked back and forth from the kitchen to the prize area not helping any of the workers even though there were long lines and people complaining of games not working. Thank goodness for places like Main Event and Round One who honor their coupons and try to make it right. Also can't wait for Andretti Indoor Karting and Games to open. read more

I love it there but the worst part of it I lost my phone at this place my phone was in lost mode they called my mom and got my phone back. I will come back to this place, but I will leave my phone at the house. read more

I went here for my birthday with all my fellas and we had so much fun. First we did the arcade. Then the laser tag, then the go karts, and the climbing wall. Its a 10/10!! read more

Thé mini golf was okay I guess but WAY TOO EASY. Maybe I'm just too good but I finish the 2-par holes within 30 seconds. And the employees are so tired they look like they are dead inside. 3 out of 5 stars because I'm sure the other attractions are fun. read more

I've only come for mini golf and they have a 7.99 or something like that deal for single event all you want to play deal, which is a great deal! Both the Lake and the river playing courses are fun. I like the river the best it has fun spin wheels with challenges like closing your eyes for the first putt, switch your ball with any other player etc. give it a little more excitement! Weekends are busy so expect to wait a little for your turn. Overall thought is a fun place to go and great for kids. Or date night! I recommend for sure! read more

Enjoyed the day date with my daughter. Course was a putt putt course. Nothing spectacular but can tell the community plays their. We were there at opening so several things were getting going. The water was pretty foamy so wasn't the best image. Also the lead on the cart track told me that the dual seaters were for only two people but then put a single person in a cart. I understood why, their single rider cart wouldn't go, but don't say it is an absolute and then do the thing you told me you can't. They were telling me to put my foot on the brake but the small carts were cramping my hips. A larger cart allows for a little more room. I'm not obese just tall. read more

Lots of family fun in one spot! However parents be aware you'll be spending lots of money. Haha but after all that why you are coming here right. The game room is good, the games do take a lot of credits to play so just make sure you add enough money to cards when getting started. Prize selection is one of the best. Lots to choose from. Kids felt like they left with a few good items. We only played games this trip because it was already a little cold outside. But they do have an awesome laser tag. So much yo do here. Next time we'll try more. read more

Purchased the unlimited attractions pass for all the kids. Wait times were very low on all the attractions. Had a great time. After doing multiple rounds on the attractions we hit the arcade. Ordered a pizza and it was pretty good. Staff was so awesome. My wife lost her cell phone, staff found it and charged it and we were able to pick it up the next day. Will be back again! read more

Dear Colleen , we had a very bad experience at hinkle . I have an individual tall enough , yet "Ray" the asset manager wasn't letting her on for the got karts . It was a horrible experience. We seen an individual shorter than her get on . Ray attitude towards the situation was horrible. No type of this dis escalation skills. We spend a lot of money here . Not anymore. read more

If you're looking for a great family day, I suggest this place. They have all kinds of stuff to do, we loved the mini golf. They also have an arcade, that was my son's favorite, there's a ton more stuff to do. The prices aren't very bad either. The employees are very nice and sweet, there was one guy, I didn't catch his name, but he went above and beyond to make sure my son was able to do some of the attractions that were there, he had surgery and couldn't do most of the attractions, because he can't run or get bumped right now read more

My buddy and I wanted to see the movie "Parasite" that was showing only at the Regal over on tramway next to Hinkle. We had about an hour to kill and nothing really much to do so we figured we'd stay warm by taking a visit to good Ol Hinkle Family Fun Center. Walking in we found ourselves surrounded by the tons of games in the arcade. I was rather impressed by the large selection of prizes. I have to say it's very easy to spend a large wad of cash here. There are so many entertainment options. Luckily they offer unlimited passes for reasonable rates. The place is well maintained and respectively clean. I recommend the miniature golf, you'll have a good amount of fun there especially if you came with your crew. The lazer tag is a nice large arena that utilizes the glow from black lights. They also offer a go kart racing track that is a whole lotta fun. The bumper boats are a nice touch as well. I recently heard they offered a 7D attraction. I wasn't sure exactly where it was but on my next visit I do wanna try it out. Oh also Nickel city is their other arcade that offers more older and cheaper arcade machines and a similar bunch of prizes. Definitely fun for the whole family. read more

Comparable to any fun center. There's multiple buildings so beware of extra walking/driving through the parking lot. If you're into 4D games, theirs are very fun! read more

Amazing but for the summer and kinda of confusing if it's your first time but a good time all day

My family and I just left this family fun center. And we felt that the premises were extremely clean, and there was a lot of different games to choose from.The reason why we rated so low is because we felt that every time we turn around we were nickel and dimed for every thing. The staff was unfriendly and not helpful. Also the go carts were extremely slow like they needed to be tuned up, some would just stall out. We will not not come back. read more

Hinkle family fun center is open ... I believe there are two hours sessions with a limited amount of people per group. This is in accordance with fire Marshall safety covid regulations. Plenty of time also to have a round in mini golf, go carts, bumper boats, bungee jumping and of course the Rock climbing wall. The Rock wall has a button to push for all the ones whom make it to the top! Support local family business and have fun! read more

Hinkle Fun Center - Notice she is the only one on the Rock wall. Social distance conscious! - Mini Golf Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Hello, So it started with the go karts, it was the first attraction we went on and the whole reason we got the ultimate pass so we could take the kids multiple times. My daughter was clearly tall enough to be a passenger as she is taller than my three year old who was a passenger and the she was standing at the measuring thing, the attendant was not being very nice when speaking with her to measure her. He made a rude comment to her. He was wearing a yellow shirt and had longish curly hair. He was not friendly at all.  After that we decided to try the bumper boats- I got on with my son since he wasn't tall enough to drive, we were the only ones on and pretty quickly into the ride he had to pee so we needed to get off, I told the attendant that We'd like to get off and he rolled his eyes and was annoyed that we needed off. Instead, of letting me help him he grabbed my sons arm which cause him to fall out of the bumper boat onto the concrete almost in the water.  After that we walked down to the laser tag building and did not utilize out pass again at the top portion, as everyone was rude and I did not want to go up there again, we did not get to play golf, rock wall or do the go karts again. I really couldn't believe it as hinkle used to be one of our favorite places. The manager down at the Laser tag building said I could get a refund for the passes but she did not have the capability to do so.  Let me know what information you need to refund our card. read more

Here now with two 11 year old boys; they are in Heaven!! They have gone on the go carts a million times, water bumper boats, an hour of arcade games, VR games, indoor bumper cars, and laser tag. My only wish was that there was a comfy grandma zone! It's not cheap- $100 for two kids, for an attractions pass and arcade games. But we have been here 4 1/2 hours and they are going strong. They love that they can do the things they like over and over. I am sure we'll be back. read more

Hinkle is one of the places my family and I enjoy doing together. It's affordable, which we love. In the summer we like the putt-putt golf area. Just now, we ended up at the race track! That's always a fun time. My children have enjoyed a few birthdays there in the private eating area. It's a family owned place that is better (in my opinion) than the other chain children's activity places. The food menu could use a re-do, which is why it's only getting 3 stars. Also, depending on the staff, you could be dealing with some grumpy teens but overall, it's a great place! read more

had to deal with multiple Racist employees when i approached the management to situate the issue they took it as a joke then removed me off the premises with no refund not even 2 hours into being there. wouldn't recommend this place this isn't a first something like this has happened here read more

9/6/2019. I took my son and two of his friends on a Friday evening to blow off some steam after their first two weeks back in school. One of the boys moms had free passes for five of the "attractions". Let me first say, I hate free passes. It almost always seems like something is wrong with them: they're not good on the day of the week you're there, or the time of day, or you have to meet some sort of odd conditions to use them. Not so the night we were there. Because we had multiple free passes, manager approval was required. Both the young lady at the counter and the manager were EXTREMELY friendly and helpful. In fact all the young people working that night were friendly and accommodating. They all really appeared to be enjoying what they were doing. Based on this experience I will have no reservations at all about taking the kids back. They really enjoyed the time we spent at Hinkle. read more

For $40 a person you get an unlimited band to do go carts, bumper boats, rock wall, bungee trampoline, laser tag, xd dark ride and a few other things but they were down so we didn't get to enjoy them. That is the only reason I gave a 4. The staff there are incredible. I believe they have a great team. I enjoyed them so much I made sure I shared that with a lead. I would say if by through, visiting or get stranded (like I did) I would say go and enjoy you day with them. read more

Great fun! Good value! I've been here a few times. This time, I found out there is a whole level below the lazar tag arena. The first floor has bumper cars and an arcade. The bumper cars are SO fun! They are round and so much more fun than amusement park bumper cars. We purchased the 2 hour pass. In that two hours we complete bumper cars, bumper boats, go carts, lazar tag and a round of mini golf to cap of the day of fun. Even though it was very busy, we were still able to get our monies worth in that two hours. Tip...save the mini golf for last, as long as you have a few minutes left on your pass, you can finish the golf outside your pass time. Saturday is very busy, we will probably try to go on a. Weekday in the future. read more

This is a great place to have fun and for great birthdays. My best friend had his birthday here and we got the pack where we have the 10:00:00 pass. It was a blast and we went on everything. the staff where great and very helpful. The only problem is the food. The food is not the best. And the arcade games are at ridiculous prices. Is we where at the second building with laser tag and we went to the arcade and the claw machine game that had a win every time was 100 credits. I felt like that was ridiculous. But other than that I had a great time and I might do this for my Birthday next time. Thanks Hinkle again. This is a big recommendation for me. read more

Putt putt was a lot of fun here. You can either do 18 holes or 36 holes. They do change their courses frequently. They also have the coupon on their website, you only have to pay for one person and two people can play. Only thing is some ppl don't know their putt putt manner and just linger at the course ahead of you for about an hour before moving on. You're only supposed to have 4 ppl max on each group, and when you're there, you're supposed to spend time and interact with each other! NOT ON THE FREAKING PHONE AND TEXTING AND HOLD EVERYONE BEHIND YOU BACK! Some of the courses are rather challenging, given that I ain't that good. Each of these courses are normally par 2, I was 2 par over on some of them and some of them I just picked up the ball and dropped it in lol. Now this review is only for the mini golf-putt putt. Not for the entire center. read more

This place is so great for kids! They have all different kids of games for all ages. On most games you win tickets you can then take the tickets to the counter and exchange for a corresponding prize. It was a great experience. They also have paint ball, laser tag and bumper cars. read more

Hinkle Fun Center - Games with the kids - Mini Golf Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

This was not the first time in nickel city arcade, how ever it will be the last. Walking in two employees were at the front desk. As always we ask about arcade cards and filling them. One of the gentlemen at the front desk flippantly let us know we were to go downstairs to get cards, which as far as we knew was unusual since it had been nearly a year since we'd been to the arcade last. Downstairs we attempted the kiosk, it seemed quite simple enough. Little had we known however was that their internet had been losing signal all day. So, the kiosk charged me but the transaction did not make it all the way through, so we did not get our game card or a receipt. Infact they had no record of any transaction. Had I known that the internet was on the fritz I'd have asked for additional help upstairs, had they actually been helpful and not so completely condescending perhaps the entire situation could have been avoided. We'd probably still be there having fun and spending more money. Oh also, customer service actually requires for your employees to be present, not hiding, not in the managers office, not sitting in the lobby on their phone face timing their friends regardless of break time. Unprofessional. read more

In order to really portray this on point, I gotta crawl into my cranial hard drive for a second, and dig up memories of going on family trips to boring campgrounds when I was little. Not all campgrounds totally blew, but some of them did, and when that happened my parents had, maybe, one day of good behavior from my sis and me, before we would be like Dad, this place Sucks, can we like... go Do something? And that's when we'd hop in the car and head to the nearest big small town and hopefully find a Hinkle Family Fun Center. If we were lucky enough to hit the Go Kart jackpot, man, that was the Best Camping Trip Ever. Hinkle is that kiddo wonderland on the side of the small town road, except bigger, with great Go Karts, a well-maintained and almost too frustrating 36-hole mini golf course, and then all of the other stuff you do after that, like bumper boats and games. I do have to state that, as a parent, I'm kinda done with the ordeal that is watching your kid win tickets for an hour and letting 'em pick out some schlocky plastic prize, but whatever, my kid likes it. But you should try to hit Hinkle on a beautiful day so to enjoy the outdoors of this facility; I've never felt like checking out the Lazer Tag course, but I hear it's a good time. The adult in me says it's time to elevate a couple key metrics: food and drink. If Hinkle offered something worth swallowing, I'd probably consider driving across town more often. But I'm happy with the current version, it's a good time during a lame camping trip. read more

We had a good time the only thing I did not like when we where doing the rock climbing the guy working it did not tell them how to get down so they where all the way at the top and stuck. But other then that we had a really good time read more

Took our family here during our vacation. They offer many different activities and my kids were busy the entire time. Not once did I hear "I'm bored". Make sure you come early to leave plenty of time to try everything. It is definitely a full days worth of fun packed into a convenient package. There is as much to do outside as there is indoors so don't let weather impact you're decision to go! read more
