Monique is very professional and courteous. We really enjoyed our playtime here. We really enjoy Hippo Hopp and the environment. Monique goes the extra mile to ensure that kids have a great time! My grandson had tears in his eyes leaving and she cheered him up instantly. She makes it warm and inviting to come to this establishment! Thanks for a great time! read more

My son loves this place. Every time we pull up, he gets excited. There's so much to do there from the bouncy houses to the toys for different ages. My son is almost 2 and I really like that they have activities for his age. This place is very clean and you constantly see the staff cleaning and tidying up. It makes me feel good to see that. It's great that it's a socks only facility. That helps to keep it clean. The cafe is awesome. My son loves the Hippo Hop smoothie. He has to have one every time. There's a good variety of foods like snacks, sandwiches and beverages. And free coffee before 11am during the week. Love this place! read more

A bunch of us brought our little ones here one day to try it out. It was VERY crowded and hot! I felt like it had too much going on with no supervision. The big kids were all over ht elittle kids toys and I had to tell them the sign said they were too big. I also felt like their were too many adults to kids there, yet the adults were not watching their children. The snack bar looked appetizing, even though I brought my own snacks. I personally like Leaping Lizards in Decatur better. It is 3 times the size and has a lot of natural light shining in through the windows. read more

My 2yr old Nephew had his party at the Peachtree Location last weekend and it was a blast!...Everything was clean, the staff was friendly and even the parents had a wonderful time! Special thanks to our party host Tiara for making everything Run Smoothly. Her positive Attitude, Attentiveness and Genuine Kindness was EVERYTHING. I will definitely recommend this location to all my friends! Thank you HippoHop, and thank you Tiara read more

Don't go with huge expectations and you won't be disappointed. We came here for a birthday party. I will say the place is well organized, it doesn't feel like everything is crowded or jammed into the place. The floor was a bit dirty in some areas, like there were crumbs in the inside of one of their plsstic castles but overall, I didn't see anything major. I had to buy socks for myself since everyone needs socks to be there but they didn't gauge me. I paid $1.50 for them. This place does not look new or state-of-the-art but the kids love it and get to burn off a lot of energy. If you are there earlier in the day you should have no trouble finding parking. For a rainy day its not a bad option to have the kids hang out. This place is not really great for kids over 10. read more

HippoHopp - Inside Hippo Hopp - Kids Activities Near Me - Brookhaven, Georgia

Hippo hopp is a cute little warehouse turned indoor playground. There's a ton of things to do for big kids, little ones, and a room for the very, very little to crawl all over while keeping a closer eye on them. My son enjoyed himself (there were only a handful of kids around, so he could explore without fuss) on the many bouncy things and him and my husband ran through the giant inflated obstacle course. Theres tons of toys and building things to mess with. Theres an interactive projection pad along with a tv on one side and a McD's style playground as well. Not much for the parents to do, but there are plenty of chairs for you to sit on if your kid is too old to play with mom and dad. Free wifi, too, and food and refreshments at the front of the play area. Costs five bucks a kid and parents are free. And you gotta wear socks. Or buy some at the front. read more

Went for a 2 year olds birthday party and had a great time. Our party host Fariah was awesome with the perfect toddler approved playlist! Fun place for preschoolers up to 7 to play. This Indoor play place is FAR cleaner than most play places in the city. Also great food options and seating for adults where you can watch your kids and get a rest. Entrance is usually $9 and there were soo many food options that were healthy available. Will be back with my preschooler for sure. The activities are mostly various bouncy houses for all ages with a great separate toddler and small kid play area in back. read more

Hmm. I'm having mixed feelings regarding this place. It was a very cool concept, I just didn't feel that driving as far as I did was worth it in this case. There was this horrible, horrible smell on one of the slides and I was mad that my daughter had to endure that. Also, it was very busy that day so It seemed very chaotic! Kids were everywhere lol. I love kids but it was very unsafe to me. One kid ran into me and bounced off, (I'm kind of solid, but still). I am all about solutions though and I believe more seating for adults could help a lot at this place and to have some type of employee around the attractions to just check on sanitation and make sure things are somewhat orderly. read more

Very spacious. The location we went to just opened so there are some things that may not be in place yet such as the kitchen. This has the best snack selection in my opinion. There's fruits, cheese sticks, muffins, King of Pops popsicles in addition to the usual fare. Down side, 5 bouncy houses. Not as much stuff to do as Top Play or Bean Town. Top Play is my go-to indoor play area and they always have something new. Bean Town is awesome but far. Catch Air is for someone VERY quickly bored. read more

New location is smaller than the previous one. One of the main climbing structures wasn't set up when we went. You'd think they'd offer some compensation for the fact that one of the main structures wasn't open. The 4 year olds found enough to do but the 7 year old was bored. The parking lot had a weird smell. read more

I enjoyed Hippo Hopp as i went for my god daughter 1st birthday. I must say that they need better parking as it is very limited. I like the choices of food they have in the cafe, very healthy. Good place for small kids and big kids read more

While Hippo Hop certainly serves its purpose as an indoor playground, the atmosphere and equipment are a bit underwhelming; and parking.... well, let's just say parking and accessibility are a bit nightmare on Elm Street-ish. The building and parking lots are located off the Northeast Expressway; so if you are unfamiliar with the area, you'll miss your turn/exit and have to drive another 5 minutes and come back around to reach your destination. Was that a run-on sentence? Well, that's what it feels like trying to get to HippoHop IF you don't know where you're going. There are a few bouncy houses, a tot area, a dance floor, games, toys, and a nice snack bar. I think for kids 4+, the experience is much more exciting. But for toddler aged children, there is more to be desired. The kids have a great time running around and are worn out at the end of it. But if I have to choose between Hippo Hop & Catch Air, I choose Catch Air every time. read more

Hippo hopp is relaxing for parents. I love their cafe. I just sit and talk to my sister on the phone and let my son play. He always has so much fun here. He likes to pick out which juice or snack he wants. They have socks that are sold for 2 dollars for adults. I am not sure how much Children's socks are because I always make sure I bring some in my son's backpack. read more

Love it for the 4 year old I nanny! Parents attend for free and can jump, too, if they have socks. Cute cafe that's not too over priced. Only draw backs: the chairs could be more comfortable and the noise of the inflatables gets a little much by hour 3. Free fast wifi makes up for it! Also, if you bring your receipt back with you, you can get your next entry for 1/2 off (as long as it's within a week of your last visit). That's HOURS of fun for $4. Delightful! read more

I had a great experience here for my daughters 3rd birthday party. The food was tasty, everything was as expected and the party host was very nice and productive. The children had a great time as well as the adults. I love that its not so huge that your kids could get lost but enough space to run around and tire the kids out. The food was a little expensive but the cost of the party was much more affordable than similar venues. I will definitely be back for sons birthday. read more

4 stars for being an amazing concept with a smoothie bar and food options inside. Very friendly staff, reasonable prices, lots of space and various areas or stations for play. Good amount of seating for eating and seating for parents who definitely deserve a break that overlook the play areas. My only reason this didn't get 5 stars is its impossible to get someone on the phone, and I wish there were a few more staff walking around to have a presence for any issues. For example. My husband and I were following around my toddler making sure he's safe and playing nicely with others, and there was a little girl who kept shoving him off toys and screaming in his face. We couldn't find her parents and obviously we can't scold someone else's kid so we had to take our sobbing son over to another area. We kept seeing this little nightmare (sorry, but she was a bully) steal things from other kids and bully other kids. It left a real bad taste in our mouth and put a damper on this otherwise awesome experience. Anyway, love the idea but wish there was more supervision or enforced rules for parents to still supervise their kids. read more

HippoHopp was a great place to celebrate a joint birthday party. The kids all had a great time with tons of things to do. Our party planner, Kaylee, was organized, friendly, and a huge help. We had a great party and Hippohopp made it easy! read more

My grandkids and I went to Hippo Hopp just off the I-85 access road in Atlanta for the day because the whether was bad and this was a place to play indoors. We had been there before and it was fine on those visits. The check in process required updating a waiver which did not work on my phone. The staff was short with me because I could not get it to work-- finally they did it and we paid $30 and went in at 10:49 am. The kids played and then we decided to get lunch. The person at the register told me it would be 6 minutes, but it took 20 minutes for the food to be ready. The kids played while I waited. As soon as we ate, they announced that they were closing for a private party. We were there a total of 1 hour and 12 minutes-- 20 of which I spent waiting for food. There was a private party that had booked the entire place. some people seemed to know that this was going to happen but there was no sign or information at check in. When I (and many others) complained we were offered a refund within a week. read more

Not great for toddlers. The toddler space was old and dirty. Parts missing off of the toy (ex. steps but the slide is not attached). The place in general looks kind of run down and I'm shocked at the high reviews. Every toy is dingy. Every. Toy. Staff not really engaged with the customers. We left after 40 mins. Would not recommend or return to. Two stars because they have a decent amount of parking, plenty of storage/shoe cubicles and offer hot food and all three of those tend to be rare at these types of places. Overall, even at $7 it was a waste but I won't cry about it. read more

I feel like this place is a hidden gem! I stumbled upon it as I was researching COVID safe party options for my toddler. I ended up having my sons 3rd Birthday party here Saturday and it was the best decision. I opted for the private party. The staff was amazing. They were attentive to my needs and assisted me before I even asked. They were friendly and readily available the entire time I was there. I arrived a little early to setup and observed the staff cleaning the facility. That was impressive. HippoHopp is clean and kid friendly. I would definitely recommend taking your child here for your next play date or next birthday party. It was truly the best experience! read more

Absolutely amazing for small children. Always something new to do and hours of fun. And the food is amazing .

Fun , fun and more fun! Kids of course enjoy this place. But grown ups can sit and enjoy a coffee , do some work or just observe the kids having a blast. Great and helpful staff every single time I come here. The cafe has a variety of foods at such great prices. There's no need to go anywhere else for lunch or snacks. Very easy to spend over 3 hrs here and you will love every minute of it! read more

We brought our 1 year old here on a random weekday for some running around since our original plans were waylaid by the rain (boo rain!). We found this spot on Yelp and decided to check it out because of the great reviews! Bring or wear socks, as you will have to take off your shoes to walk around and play. Also, there is free wifi (woohoo)! First off, parking in the area is a bit difficult. Make sure you pay attention to the signs posted along the street about which lots and what street areas are OK to park in and what areas are not. (You definitely don't want to get towed!) On a weekday, the parking situation is really not bad (we found street parking across the street from the building), but I can see how this can become an issue during peak times. The indoor playground is HUGE! The playground is loosely divided into areas with signs posted about what ages each structure or area is appropriate for. However, since most of these kids can't read, it's really up to parents and caretakers to enforce these rules (and not everyone watches their kids closely - there are rows of chairs and tables where some caretakers are just sitting on their phones etc). There is also a cafeteria with organic, 'healthy' foods and snacks. The cafeteria is towards the front of the building, and the floor here is not carpeted. You will want to wear shoes or the slippers they provide here. Same with the bathrooms (tiled). My only complaint is some of the areas are pretty dirty. I suppose even with daily cleaning this can't be helped to some degree given the sheer amount of sticky kids that come through on a daily basis. I will say none of the kids looked or acted sick on the day I was there, but my kid did come down with a runny nose and a mild cough a few days later. I suppose to some extent that too is to be expected. read more

Perfect place for a soon to be 2 year old. My sons birthday is next month and we've been scouting potential birthday party venues. Hippo hop is a winner, he took off running as soon as we walked in. It's a very open and fun place. The staff and guests were pretty friendly and relaxed. I can't wait until next month so that my son and all of his friends and family can come enjoy it like he did tonight. I also ordered a veggie quesadilla that was great! read more

Great place to bring the kids, easy ratio if it's 1 parent to multiple kids. Good food. Reasonably priced

My wife and I love hippo hop for our 3 old son. First off the staff is super friendly. An example of outstanding customer service I have personally experienced...I brought my son in without going online first to fill out waiver etc. The staff member let me know that unfortunately the facility was closed due to a private event. Of course I and especially my son were let down. As we were getting ready to exit the same staff member stopped me and let me know that we could stay. She had spoken to the owner of the facility who told her to let us play even though it was clearly on me for not going through proper protocol before coming to hippo hop. At that moment hippo hop had won my loyalty. My son loves all the bouncing, climbing and sliding he can do with his friends. My wife and I love their cafe options (smoothies, paninis, etc) in addition to comfortable seating all over the facility made just for parents/guardians to comfortably watch their little ones. If you need an affordable way to let your little one burn some energy then please go to hippo hop you won't regret it! read more

I looked forward to celebrating someone's party here and we weren't advised that a private party would take place instead we were informed in a nasty nice manner that they were closed. I'm sure if people were informed in a timely manner, they would not have to be rushed out. But it was evident that they were focused more on making their quota. We weren't there for an hour and not once did anyone say "hey, were closing early due to a private party". To make matters worse, they turned off the jumpers without warning. A young man came into the bathroom while me and my children were in there and instead of saying "sorry, excuse me", (mind you, he had already stated 2 times on separate occasions that they were closed), he lingered in the bathroom and stated yet again "well you know we're closed". I advised him that we were well aware and to please exit the bathroom because he was in a bathroom with females. I found that highly inappropriate and informed the so called manager and she dismissed my complaint and said the young man was likely in the bathroom because he was trying to clean up. I told the "manager" that a woman had already came in the bathroom. She claimed she would speak with him, but I highly doubt it. A man is not to enter a bathroom when he is well aware that females are in the bathroom! This place has lost my service before they truly received it. I would not advise anyone to go here. Go anywhere else, they seem money hungry if anything. Others who were coming to the place weren't aware that the place was also closed and were upset because they had driven a distance to take their kids to play. I was not impressed with the place, the poor customer service, and the outdated-non-existent menu. read more

I love this place! I've been bringing my little guy here for a couple years and he always has a blast. They recently got some new equipment which is nice. There's something for everybody and they have free wifi so busy moms and dads can get some work done while the little ones play. The food is pretty good and they have some healthy organic options which is always plus. I highly recommend this place. Especially if you have a super high energy kid like I do. This place always wears him out. He gets to run around and jump and climb and play and get a yummy food too. Def my favorite place to bring my little guy. read more

They get pretty crowded especially when it rains. They have a lot of activities I do question the cleanliness at times because I'd often get a sick kid a few days after visits read more

We're here several times a month so we either love it or I'm a glutton for punishment. Well, any time you go anywhere with large, loud inflatables, bright lights and lots of happy, squealing children, you're a bit of a glutton for punishment to begin with. So there's that. But truly, we love this place. We've been bringing our son here since he was 10 months old and could only crawl about. They have lots of toys and activities for children who are too young for (or afraid of) the bounce houses. My son particularly liked a wooden school bus with a car maze in the front, alphabet blocks on one side and those ever-present beads on the other side. The crawlers love the tubes and the early walkers love the push toys and all the playhouses. There are at least six play houses and it seems they keep adding more. So the 2-and-under crowd are all set. As they get old enough to bounce, they have their choice of small, safe bouncies that ONLY 3 years and under can go in (and their parents), and then many others that scale up in difficulty and interest for older children. This business is serious about recycling and conservation. They are also committed to healthy food so you can get things like hummus and veggies or Annie's cheddar bunnies at their cafe. Free Wi-Fi but I never bring my computer cuz I'm too busy chasing after my very happy toddler. Rates are great, too. I think it's $3 for my son's age and parents are free. We've been to other bounce houses like Monkey Joe's but prefer this for the variety of activities for all ages and the healthy snacks and environmental consciousness. It's the type of business you want to do business with. p.s. - the last time I was there, it was raining cats and dogs and I was driving around looking for parking. The owner was out front directing us to spots, getting soaked. That said a lot to me about his care and commitment to his customers. read more

A constant cleaning staff. Socks required for both kids and parents. Healthy food options. They have rubber slippers to put on to go into the restroom. I love it here. It's exercise for parents too. read more

HippoHopp - Food options at Hippohop - Kids Activities Near Me - Brookhaven, Georgia

I found the facility to be dark, crowded and in need of maintenance. Parking was awful - we parked behind the building and had to walk through a narrow gravel walkway that was dark and dangerous as we left at closing. The staff was generally indifferent and seemed like they would rather be anywhere but here. The attractions were outdated and included a hodge-podge variety (a lot of these plastic structures could probably be bought right off of Amazon, not intended for commercial use!) There are much better indoor play areas for children in town. I did love the availability of organic drinks and snacks, but at the same time people were eating dripping popsicles and leaving crumbs all over the place (not just in the eating area). Finally, I saw several people either wearing shoes in the play areas or carrying their shoes with them and leaving them inside the play structures. When I asked the staff what the deal was, they could care less. This place also does not have any system to ensure that children are leaving with the adults they came with. Considering how crowded it was on the weekend and the multiple birthday parties (there were practically as many adults as children) I would advise that you keep your kids close at hand. One more note, I really loved that this place had a nursing area. Even though I did not intend to use it, I made a point to check it out. Unfortunately, it is small and to say it is semi-private would be generous. The room it is in is packed with parents and children and the kids had turned the space into a fort and play area of their own. Unless the whole facility is empty, I don't see any nursing mother making use of this space. Pretty pointless! read more

I've been there once with my kids, and they had fun, but I have a couple issues: 1) Outside food is not allowed. They have a cafe with "healthy" and "reasonably priced" food, but their definitions of healthy and affordable are pretty skewed. 2) They don't accept phone calls. I tried to call and ask if re-admission was allowed if we decided to go somewhere else to eat, but they have an automated phone system that doesn't have any options for speaking to a person to ask questions. They have no information on their website about re-admission. After calling Catch Air Midtown and talking to a real person that was able to answer my questions, I decided it was a better fit. Seriously, who doesn't take phone calls? read more

Visited this location twice, it was good as advertised, clean and plenty of activities for my son to run, jump and bounce.

I get the appeal of this place. BUT, 2 things would make it SO much better and safer. 1. Stop calling food over the loud speaker every 20 seconds. It's SO ANNOYING. In the few moments I can actually talk to my friend between trying to wrangle my daughter, there is a horrible loud speaker calling #'s for ppl to pick up their food. It's so loud and muffled and annoying. Get some buzzers!!! 2. There should be more staff walking around and monitoring the place and entrance. I saw several kids in distress, including a kid stuck inside of a basketball net. There is like NO ONE working here except a few busy people selling food towards the front and taking $ at the entrance. When it was time to leave and I was quickly getting my shoes on, my 2 year old ran away and went right outside the front door on her own. The door should lock or an employee should be standing there. It's NOT SAFE. read more

I've been here three times and I've really enjoyed it. I have a group for single moms, The Single Mom's Network, and we've met there twice. Our last meeting was this past Saturday (12.19.09). There were two birthday parties going on, but the place was still great. Not too loud some of the other indoor playgrounds. At both meetings, there were moms with small children, and their toddlers were able to have just as much fun and the staff makes sure the older kids don't play on the toddler toys (no other place does this). When you go in, they have a sign that the children should wait before entering but they don't enforce that which I think is great. The minute kids step a foot into these places their shoes are off and they're running in, they don't want to wait for you to stop and pay. I've communicated with Joy and Wendy via email to schedule meetings there and they've both been wonderful. This is a great place to take your kids during the winter and even meet with other moms. read more

This place has a good layout, and is easy to keep an eye on the kiddos. Not too much for the babies/toddlers though. A little room hidden in the back, but then you can't see the older kids. It's very clean and has great healthy food options. This is one of my 4 year old's favorite places. read more

My review has two parts. 1) Great place to take your kids to 2) Don't book a birthday party here. This place is great to take kids to. Especially on extremely hot or cold days since its indoors. The food menu has a lot of healthy options which is a good change of pace. Kids can run around and you feel safe letting them go. There is free wi-fi and plenty of places to sit. My kids are 4 and 5 yrs old but there is places and plenty of stuff for toddlers too. They also have a card you can refill the balance with to use for entry and buy food. The only negative is their parties. Don't book a party here. We booked a party with cake and food and decorations. We got a lot of extras with the package we got. All was well except at the end when the kids wanted to go back out to the play area...they wouldn't let them. Everyone had to leave. We spent all this money with them and we couldn't have our kids go back out and play. What a rip-off! So disappointed. We and our guests would have spent more money had we been able to stay. I hope they change this policy. read more

So I like most people tend to leave a review only when a service/product goes above-and-beyond my expectations or extremely below them. This review is unfortunately due to the latter. I've been to this establishment three times and was generally pleased with the experience - most importantly my kid had a good time. Upon arriving for a fourth visit I was informed that they've instituted a new "parent must wear socks" policy just to sit and watch your kid play. I wasn't wearing socks and would've had to purchase them. I was okay with this, but as we were signing in and settling up, I asked to know why they'd instituted the policy. The man would only restate the policy as his answer, and then escalated by asking me why I was challenging him. I clarified I wasn't challenging him or it by asking for justification. Being just over a week out from major stomach surgery and having edema I really wasn't looking forward to discomfort of putting on socks, but would've done it if he'd just answered my question and was more polite. I also couldn't help but notice other patrons sitting with either bare feet or shoes on in the play zone. When he grew more belligerent, I asked to speak to the manager and he told me he was the manager and then also the owner. I asked for his name and he refused to give it probably because he's neither a manager or the owner. Meanwhile their staff still walk through the play zone delivering food with shoes fully on because of course it would be an OSHA violation to be in the kitchen without them. I'm honestly not sure what they're trying to accomplish, but being eco-friendly and gluten-free is not going to compensate for RUDENESS. They should consider that there are many perfect and imperfect substitutes for the service they render and put children and parent priorities ahead of their own paternalistic ideals. MONKEY JOE'S is just a few miles up the road. read more

Formerly Bounce-n-Bob's, this family-owned indoor playground with all inflatable equipment is a child's vision of heaven. With separate areas, each age group has access to Jumpy-Things that they can maneuver through and have fun on by themselves. Parents can join the fun if they wish (as long as you have socks!), or they can supervise from a safe distance while enjoying magazines, tv, and free high speed internet. I've been here twice as much as any other similar facility, and I've found it both safe and enjoyable (for the kids and adults). Exits are either carefully guarded, or blocked off. They use Green Cleaning Products every day to disinfect their equipment. The carpets are kept clean and things are always in order. Staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Because they are family owned and operated, you can tell that they put a lot of effort and thought into everything that they do and offer. Parties are always well accommodated -- offering pizza, juice, and cake or ice cream... 2 rooms with tables and chairs for everyone. I have never been disappointed with this company; I've always felt like the children there were safe and that the entire group was well taken care of. Not only will I continue to return here for years to come, I will continue to invite friends and recommend them to friends and family and total strangers. read more
