We weren't with the pirates one since you can select a class with unique abilities. It was fun and the game masters were really helpful with the choice. We almost paid for a back to back session but was hungry so ended up wrapping up with just the one session. Really fun!

Seriously such a great activity for both kids and adults. It's located on the 1st floor of the…read moreNorth County mall next to See's Candy and Old Navy and right below the Cheesecake Factory. It's a VR play store where they have individual stalls (about 8) each equipped with a screen, one VR headset, and hand remotes. You can play by yourself or join someone else's game in the other stalls. There's a 100 different games to choose from. There are also 2 virtual driving stations. Due to the complexity of using the remotes, I'd say these activities are best suited for 7-8 year olds and above. They also do birthday packages which I'm sure are popular among the kids. The owner Jordan is awesome. He is super friendly and helpful. I don't know how he does it but he is able to manage all 8 individual stalls and troubleshoot for each person right away. You pay every 30 min. They offer happy hour which is half off Monday-Thursday from 5pm to close. So we paid $10 for 30 mins for each stall which was a good deal. They also have a punch card so the more you play, the more free play time you can earn. My kids are already asking to go back lol :p we shall return soon for more fun!

I didn't think these would be qualities of a VR camp, I was very pleasantly surprised. Pan and Tina did a great job with the kids and they run a very cool business. I cannot wait to come back and do a VR themed "girls night out"!

Best party ever! I threw my son's 11th birthday party at The Grid (boys aged 8-13) and they all…read morehad a great time! The owners were there and very hands on, keeping the party going. It was so much fun for everyone and I liked how little I had to do. I actually got to enjoy the party myself. The boys had 90 minutes of VR laser tag like play. We had the whole place to ourselves so didn't have to worry about the boys getting split up, or random people being around. We were able to bring in our own food and drinks, and the kids came and ate as they pleased. If I throw my son a party next year, we will likely come back here. It's a 20 min drive from Solana Beach, but well worth it.

They've added some new things, which is awesome. This is THE ULTIMATE place for your gaming kids (and adults!) They have most everything! Pros: * Every time we come here it's super clean! I appreciate that. * Every employee has been very helpful, attentive to set up the VR for us, and has a great attitude. * It's super fun, and I think the all day pass is well worth the money! * They are chill about me (the Mom) sitting and working on my laptop at one of the cool tables. Cons: * The cafe is closed during the day (at least it has been every time we've come) They used to have a soda machine and if you bought time you got a free soda, which I thought was a cool perk. But that's gone now. Overall, we HIGHLY recommend Odyssey VR. If you haven't been, check it out! My kid loves this place!

Steven was the only one working so aside from price the only downfall is you needed to wait for him to help you set up on the next game/ride you're ready. However he was so friendly and welcoming! There is truly something for everyone here. Fun for the family! There's also a cafe but I don't try anything out. Smelled yummy! I saw they had 50% off on Tuesdays?
