One of the cleanest indoor kid play spaces we've visited in the Bay Area. The space is on the smaller side, but they do make effective use of the space they have. There are swings, slides, a ball pit with interactive game screen, electric cars, building blocks, grocery store with checkout machine, and small areas for infants as well. The party rooms looked tidy and accommodating. The design is well thought out, and my 10 month old and 2.5 year old had a great time. We will be back. Note: We came here on a weekday so cannot speak to how crowded it gets on the weekend. read more

Took my daughters here on a no school, rainy day. It was PACKED. I think the space is too small for a play place. The entrance and front desk area was very cramped- too many people trying to get in and out at the same time. There's a small seating area for parents. They have ride on toys but not much space to ride around. The slides are small. The ball pit takes up a big part of the play area. This place would be best for kids who are old enough to play and roam around on their own but not too old to be too big for the structure and toys. My 7 year old got bored pretty quickly and my 2 year old was very overwhelmed with the crowd. read more

Went to Kiddo Adventure yesterday for the first time and my daughter (2.5 yo) had a great time! Maybe because it was a Thursday and most kids have gone back to school after Spring breaks but when we got there around 11 am it was not that busy. We were able to go walk-in without a reservation, and I did the waiver at home prior to arriving. It did get a little more busy closer to noon with older children. It reminds me of some indoor playrooms that they have in Japan- it's cleanly and I appreciate that it is a no-shoes facility. I only wish we had a location closer to our house in South Bay! read more

This place is super cute! Metered parking on 4th so plan for that. I brought my 4 and 5yo here on a weekday and it was pretty busy. I do think the experience is best for children under 5. It's very clean which is a plus. There is a nice lobby with seating area for parents/visitors. The bathrooms are clean as well. Socks are required for entry for adults and children and can be purchased for $3. There is a shaved ice bar inside, which is a nice touch. They also sell some small snack, and drinks. They do have a two hour max for open play, but I'm not sure how this is enforced. My only complaint is that there are a couple of motorized bikes that the kids enjoy but there are only 2 of them and some kids stayed on them for 15 to 20 minutes so others could not get a turn. I feel staff should monitor this a little bit better. Also you can only access the bathroom by going through the play gym area and adults are required to pay a fee to enter the play gym. If you only stay in the lobby, you do not need to pay the adult fee. read more

A (new) indoor playground that combines elements of other indoor playgrounds in the area to offer a sanitary, versatile, fun experience for the kids. You are greeted with a giant, inviting ball pit that comes with a flashing, carnival-style slide. The play structure is a few stories tall, but not so big that you can't still keep an eye on your kid at all times as they move throughout. There are lots of benches around the structure for parents to sit down at, and they also have seating outside the play area that is more cafe style, where you can have food and drinks. Behind the structure you have a small 3 and under baby play area as well as a mini shopping store where kids can use their imagination to pretend they are checking out groceries. There is an indoor track that circles around the play structure where you can ride some cars. And of course, you can't forget to throw some balls at digital zombies or feed balls up the tubes and wait for the giant ball drop once the device up top gets full. Your ticket allows for 2 hours of open play. A good option to come to as a parent if you need to help your kids burn off some energy while you take a bit of a breather. read more

Stopped by Kiddo Adventure awhile ago witmy daughter along with my other friend & two kids definitely had a good time as this was both of ours first time here! It's nice that you can reserve a time ahead of time but they do accept walk-ins! The facility was overall very clean and the workers are very welcoming. It does get very crowded especially during the opening hours and some kids can be a bit aggressive so there is also an area for kids under 2 to enjoy the little kitchen space or the other section with soft blocks. Overall, we had a good time and our kids were satisfied! read more

We hosted a 4th birthday party for my daughter at Kiddo Adventure and had the best experience. We had a smaller party of 10 kids and everyone had a blast. Our party ran from 2:30-4:30pm. I was able to bring a fruit/veggie platter myself as well as cake. You can order any food (like pizza), snacks and drinks through them. They served all the kids and adults and helped us take family pictures to capture the memories. It was the easiest and most pleasant experience I've had as the host. You pick the theme and they do a fantastic job decorating. It's not the bare minimum decoration - there are many details and honestly a much better job than what I could do. The play space itself is new and really fun, even my older daughters had fun, but the sweet spot for target age is likely under 7. There are many cute IG worthy spots to take pictures and the play features are really fun from light up slides to wobbly balance bridges and bouncy seats. The interactive video game screen where you can throw balls from the pit was also a crowd pleaser. My youngest could usually be found in one of the many cars or in the back where they have a market kitchen with target checkout counter. Overall, highly recommend and really glad to have this in the neighborhood. The care and service from management and staff were truly a highlight. read more

Had my daughter's birthday party here last week. It was an amazing turnout. Kids enjoyed the playground and the party set up. Even the parents get to enjoy the party. Party set up was amazingly done ahead. When we arrived, tables set up and decor are all done. During the party, kids and even are adults were taken care of. As a host, this is absolutely amazing as I get to just enjoy my kid's party. Most of guests praised highly of this playground and their service. Owners are very friendly and passionate.

My recent visit to Kiddo Adventure Indoor Playground was truly great! The variety of activities kept the kids entertained for hours. It was a clean and safe environment, which is always a plus. ‍ My 3 years old toddler loved it. I went on one of the busy day. If I plan a birthday party, I would try to book out the entire playground since it gets really crowded read more

We celebrated my nephew's 3rd birthday yesterday. As we were walking in, staff was cleaning the play areas and everyone is required to wear socks. The kids had fun and lastly, the staff were very attentive from start to finish. They assisted before, during and after the party. Thank you so much. read more

Cool indoor playground! We came here for a birthday party--it was very organized. We had access to the whole playground without any other people, then we had pizza and then a little more playtime. There are ride on toys, slides, ball pit, play kitchen. Kids who are not fully potty trained should be in a diaper ;) overall a great time and the staff was wonderful ensuring we stayed on time. They also passed around the pizza, fruit and cupcakes to the guests for the party. read more

We hosted our daughter's 5th birthday at Kiddo Indoor Playground in San Mateo, and it was absolutely wonderful. The decor was beautiful, the space was incredibly clean, and everything was fully set up before we even arrived. Savannah, Marely, and Emily were amazing throughout the party -- organized, kind, and so helpful. The owners, Sammie and Tim, were also very involved, checked in with us, and made sure everything went smoothly. The team helped hand out goody bags at the end and even helped us get gifts and leftover food into the car. Everyone had a wonderful time, and the whole event felt seamless. Highly recommend for a kids' birthday party! read more

Brand new indoor playground. The space is not big but very fun for kids. Very clean facility and restroom. Come early on holidays/weekends since they do fill up and their capacity is 90 people. 2 hours max stay during peak time. Had to wait almost 30 minutes since the line was quite slow. Hopefully, they improve their check-in process. read more

The kiddos loved this place! Which is unfortunate for me because once the baby turns a year old, now I'll have to be shelling out $50+ per visit. But in all seriousness, the facility is awesome. Great for my 3.5 year old but even my 10 month old had a great time. They have a small enclosed area toddlers can play safely and a larger area for ages 3+. Unfortunately, certain days hours are shorter due to private parties, so be sure to double check hours on their website. The day we went they closed earlier so we didn't get a full 2 hours (girl at front did let me know when checking in). read more

Phenomenal experience! Book this place if you want to actually enjoy your party and talk to your guests. We are so glad Kiddo Adventure Indoor Playground opened! We hosted our son's 4th birthday party here, and it absolutely exceeded every expectation! From start to finish, Tim and his wife, Sammie, along with the entire staff, were incredible to work with. They truly go above and beyond. Tim and Sammie put so much thought and care into helping us plan the party. Sammie did a phenomenal job with the decorations for our son's Thomas-themed celebration--even creating custom centerpieces! It made the space and whole day feel magical. This is THE place for parents who want a stress-free, memorable, and genuinely enjoyable party experience. They provide everything: themed decorations, a full menu of food and drinks, and even the option for goodie bags. And the playground itself is a kid's dream! From slides and obstacle courses to the role-play area and car track, there's something for every child. All the kids had a blast!! The biggest highlight of all was the warmth, thoughtfulness, and genuine care Tim and Sammie brought to making sure our party was everything we hoped for and more. We are so grateful to them and also to all the staff that made this one of the best parties ever. I can't recommend Kiddo Adventure enough!! Thank you, Tim and Sammie!! read more

This place is great! Very clean and lots of play options especially if its raining l. Our little one had a good time exploring and had so much fun. The only thing we hesitate on is that she is younger so if there is older kids they do not pay attention to how fast or rough they are. So we were always making sure she didnt get in their way. read more

Kiddo Adventure Indoor Playground is such a gem! First of all--so clean. Like, actual mom-approved clean which immediately made me feel comfortable letting my kids run wild. The space is bright, well organized, and perfect for burning energy (especially on rainy days ). The owner, Tim, is incredibly kind and welcoming--one of those people who clearly cares about families and kids . That alone makes such a difference. There's plenty for different ages to explore, climb, slide, and imagine , and it feels like a safe, happy space where kids can just be kids. If you're a parent looking for an easy, stress-free indoor option when the weather isn't cooperating--or honestly anytime--this place is a win read more

We had our daughter's birthday party at Kiddo Adventure a few weeks ago and I cannot recommend them enough. The owners and staff handled everything and I mean everything--from decorating the private room (many great themes to choose from), food ordering, monitoring of the time and schedule of events, cleanup, and even packed up the leftover food for us. It was completely stress free/hands off for me and I was able to enjoy chatting with my guests the entire duration! The kids all had a blast at the indoor playground too. Thank you Tim and Sammy for such a well organized, fantastic party. Haley had the absolute dream party and will never forget her 5th birthday thanks to you! read more

My 2.5 year old loved this place! We went today and he easily spent 2 hours here. We also met the owner, Tim - he was great and so glad they are open in San Mateo. My kiddo loved it so much we ended up getting a membership the same day! So good for rainy days and also I like that as part of the membership you can come anytime they are open. Flexibility is a luxury when you have an active toddler - especially in the winter months! read more

Our family excitedly waited for this place to open, and now that it's here it's already one of our favorite places! There's so much to do, and the space is clean and well organized. The play structure is spacious enough that parents can accompany smaller kids that might need some help. The owners are so kind and make an effort to get to know the families who come to play there. After the soft opening where my husband gave some feedback, the owner personally followed up with us to let us know they took our advice. They also have a great party space and our 4yo has big plans for her 5th birthday party there. This is a great new space and a huge win for families in San Mateo, especially as temperatures are dropping. read more

TOP TIER PLAYGROUND EXPERIENCE As a stay-at-home mother, I'm always looking for fun places for my toddler and me to enjoy--especially on days when the weather or park cleanliness isn't ideal. Out of curiosity, I searched for an indoor playground, and this was the first place that came up. It's located in San Mateo and is conveniently centered in the Peninsula. When we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the owner. He was welcoming, informative, and explained everything we needed to know. At first glance, the space looked new, tidy, and very clean--impressive considering how many children were there. The owner clearly takes great care of the place. Once my toddler and I stepped past the little gate, it felt like a mini amusement park for him. They have every toy you could imagine for a young child to explore, plus a ball pit and a small jungle gym. We have plenty of toys at home, but they can become overwhelming and end up unused. Now that I've found this place, I feel like I can finally start decluttering at home because he gets so much stimulation and variety here. There are ride-on cars and motorcycles that actually work, a pretend kitchen, a mini Target checkout area, and everything has lights, sounds, and buttons that function. There's something for toddlers all the way up to about age 12 or even 15, depending on the child. I love that everything is padded, so if my toddler takes a natural tumble, it doesn't hurt. The ball pit is amazing, and the slides with lights inside are such a fun touch. Honestly, this is a stay-at-home mother's dream--and really, any parent's dream--if you want your child to stay active, play independently, and explore safely. Another thing I really appreciated was how clean the bathrooms were. They even provide little slippers to wear inside so you don't walk in with just socks. For their grand opening in January, they're also adding a slushy machine and a small food-court area. There's a dedicated space where you can step out of the play area to sit, have a snack, or take a break. They also have memberships that I think is worth it! Another thing I would like to add is hot INSANELY clean it is for an indoor plsy Overall, this place is such a gem. I'm so happy it's now part of our community, and I hope you all get a chance to enjoy it. Party place available too!*** read more

Had a scheduled baby sitting appointment with my grandchildren and was looking for something to keep them entertained while the parents were out enjoying themselves, I happen to find this on Yelp my husband & I took them here it was clean, organized and a lot of fun for my grandkids they had so much fun !!! I love that they keep it to a 2 hour limit but my granddaughter was upset that we had to leave. Her favorite thing to do was the kitchen & store area she said never mind the slides & balls she spent most of her time there!!! read more

We had such a great experience hosting our child's birthday party at Kiddo Adventure! From start to finish, everything was smooth and well organized. The activities were a huge hit with the kids--especially the ball pit, which they couldn't get enough of--and there was plenty to keep everyone engaged and having fun. The staff was incredibly accommodating and helpful throughout the party. Tim, the owner, was especially great to work with--very communicative leading up to the event and clearly invested in making sure everything went well on the day of. That level of care really made a difference. The decorations were also a standout and made the space feel festive and special without us having to worry about a thing. We received lots of positive feedback from our guests, which says a lot. Overall, it felt best suited for kids around ages 3-5, but we had some younger and older kids attend as well, and they all had a great time. Would definitely recommend for a fun and easy birthday party! read more

We recently hosted our child's 3rd birthday at Kiddo Adventures, and it was a 5-star experience from start to finish. The indoor structures are impressive--very safe, incredibly clean, and full of variety. The ball pit, slides, and balance structures were huge hits, and I especially appreciated the dedicated, protected areas for younger toddlers. The facility is well-organized and spotless. The owners are incredibly sweet and went above and beyond to help us coordinate every detail. During the party, the staff was a lifesaver, helping with everything from gathering the kids for food to cutting the cake. The party room itself was beautiful and perfectly set up. While we didn't have music in the room (not sure if it was an option or just our oversight), it didn't take away from the experience at all. Highly recommended for a stress-free, fun celebration! read more

What an amazing place for kids! It is so clean and safe. There are bathrooms which is so convenient. We will be back for more hours of fun

This place is incredible. We went here for a 5-yr old's birthday party and having the whole play area for the class was so much fun. There's the classic ball pit, but also fun slides and interactive video games. read more

Way above expectations! I am a busy working mom and I'm always grumpy around the degree to which I have to plan my kids' birthday parties with little help from my spouse and family. Kiddo went above and beyond, the decorations were better than I could do myself, the remembered all the little things like lighters, candles, and serving utensils. The even helped cut and serve the cake! My only nit is that the food needs to be ordered from Mountain Mike's pizza, I don't think that the parents loved it. But the kids had a blast from beginning to end, the only thing I need to do was to reserve the room, order the food from Mt Mike's, get the cake, and send the invitations! read more

Came here for the first time on a Saturday, 2 hours before closing. My 2 year old absolutely loved this place. He really enjoyed the ball pit and all the electric trucks/cars he was able to ride around. Great service. Paid somewhere around $35-38 total for my wife, son, and I. Definitely will come back. read more

We had our kids birthday party here and even after multiple reminders they forgot key things for our party. It is 2hrs but they made a big deal out of when we chose to do things which didn't make sense at all but then later on we realized they keep rushing parties so they can fill in as many as customers. The assistants are super slow and I had to take over. All in all, I approached kiddo to takeaway party planning stress but this has been so far the most stressful party ever. Edit: 1. We booked party from 10.45am - 12.45am. It's agreed that the playtime will run from 10.45am - 11.45 am. We informed that the cake will arrive promptly at 12 noon (which it did) and will give ample time for kids to eat food (15mins) and 45 mins !! for cake. Even then you were insisting that the cake is late which I still don't understand. 2. I came to the store at least 2 times and emailed multiple times confirming party favors which your team completely forgot on the day off. 3. I am not sure who approached you about the venue (I am sure others might have had great experience but unfortunately we did not) but it's upon suggestion from our party attendees I felt encouraged to write this review. 4. Lastly, throwing a party isn't an easy task and human error is almost always expected and I won't hold Kiddo accountable for one party mishap. It happens. However, I am disappointed by the lack of accountability (even in your current response - omitting details about party favors but blaming us for the cake delivery). I am going to assume our party was just a one-off event and is not the norm. Wish you the best! read more

Awesome indoor playground! Super central location in downtown San Mateo. It's the perfect size--big enough to keep my 8 year old nephew busy for hours. Very clean, safe environment, and the free Wi-Fi is a nice bonus for parents. We'll definitely be back! read more

Visited for the first time and had a lot of fun. My son ran around and now he's sleeping peacefully

We have been to Kiddo Adventure 2-3x now and both my children love coming here to play. They say it's the best place on earth and even better than Disneyland The place is clean and the owner, Tim, is friendly. They also have open play on the weekends, which is a big plus. Hope they expand to a bigger space one day for more fun! read more

This place is always over capacity. You can barely walk, find your kids, and enjoy freely. The check in process is terrible. We have been there 4 times and every time the owner says we are not in the system. My nanny went today with my kids and he refused to speak to me over the phone when I wanted to explain we have been down this road before, literally said he won't take a call.... They have no phone number or way to communicate. Such a bummer because I really wanted to like this place but it's just not being run efficiently. read more

Kiddo adventure was an absolute lifesaver for a last-minute 3rd birthday! This review is long overdue! We held my daughter's 3rd birthday party here back in November right when they first opened, and I was honestly blown away by how amazing everything turned out right off the bat. I have to admit, I put them in a tough spot--I reached out super last-minute, only 5 or 6 days before the actual birthday. I felt terrible giving them such short lead time, but they were incredibly gracious and eager to make it work. I coordinated with the owner, Tim, who was so responsive and stayed on top of every detail to ensure we were ready to go. On the day of the party, his wife Sammi was an absolute superstar. She managed the setup and the flow of the event perfectly, which completely took the mental burden off of me. It was truly a full-service experience. They handled the food, drinks, and goodie bags. They even had a huge list of themes to choose from (they had the exact Mario theme my daughter wanted!). I barely had to lift a finger--literally the only things I brought were the birthday cake and two trays of fruit and veggies. The facilities were pristine, and the guests had a blast. Several parents actually told me their kids wanted to come back and that they want to book their own parties here now. If you are looking for an stress-free, fun, and professionally run venue, I cannot recommend this place enough to other families! read more

Great first impression! We came on a weekday and it was very clean and the owner Tim gave us a tour! It was nice to experience this playground on a very slow day especially having my baby son who isn't walking yet! He got to crawl around without getting trampled on by kids! Definitely coming back! read more

We went for a birthday party and the place we're not set up on time and felt rushed to get out. There was also another party that is happening that overlapped our party and they prohibited our children to play in the play area because it was "reserved for the other party." How do you explain to toddlers that they aren't allowed to play and that the play area is closed for our party when they see other children playing and enjoying? Everyone is upset-- both parents, children and the birthday celebrant. If they are booking a party, might as well book the entire place for the celebrant to avoid overcrowding and upset customers. read more

We had an amazing experience doing our four year old's birthday party here. Some highlights: - Amazing, attentive and friendly staff. They set up the party room beautifully and were there throughout to help us with whatever we needed. During meal time they were helping the whole time, offering all the guests food and drinks and constantly making rounds. They were friendly and helpful and made it a very pleasant experience. - The playground itself is beautifully set up with loads for the kids to do so they were playing nonstop and having the time of their lives. Its brand new and colorful and very exciting for the kids and they were very reluctant to leave. - The venue takes care of everything from A-Z - we just had to show up with a birthday cake and were allowed to bring a couple of veggie and fruit trays, and they handled everything else, from food ordering, decorations, cutlery, and even goodie bags! We had several guests tell us how well organized and well set up the party was and all the credit goes to the Kiddo Adventure team. Highly recommend them for your next party! read more

I had my son's 6th birthday party here, it was great him and his friends had a lot of fun. One of his friends did end up running out of the facility but they are working on improving their security so it won't happen again. Other than that, I believe everyone enjoyed the party. Huge shout-out to Sammie and the rest of the staff for organizing the food and decorations, and Tim for helping coordinate with me about party plans. read more
