It was very cute but also really really loud. Other than that it's a blast and I actually liked it a lot! Theres a nice rest área and drinks available! Parking is annoying but we parked on a separate block further down the street. I'd be back!!

Zero stars if we could. After a month of back-and-forth planning for a birthday, Pickle Pop proved…read morethey have zero integrity. We were told for weeks to wait until the 5-day booking window opened. We did exactly that, only to be met with a condescending manager who basically told us that our business wasn't "profitable enough" for them. The manager's exact sentiment was that they'd rather chase "event money" than honor a regular booking. He didn't care that his staff gave us specific instructions or that we had been planning this for weeks. If you aren't dropping thousands on a corporate buyout, don't expect any respect or consistency from this place. Truly unprofessional and greedy.

Santa Monica Pickleball Center is an outstanding facility with a great atmosphere, well-run courts,…read moreand a welcoming community for players of all levels. The programming is excellent and the staff does a fantastic job keeping everything organized and fun. A special shoutout to Coach Julio, who is truly a standout teacher and best in class. His instruction is clear, encouraging, and incredibly effective. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced player looking to improve strategy and technique, Julio has a rare ability to elevate your game while making every session enjoyable. Highly recommend Santa Monica Pickleball Center to anyone looking to play, learn, and be part of a great pickleball community.

I am intermediate player, looking to upgrade from my Amazon paddle,…read moreand the employee was super helpful in explaining the differences between paddles and what to look for. The best part is that you can demo (rent) paddles for $10/paddle for three days AND they will apply that credit to your purchase, so no losing money and it's clear they want to get you the right paddle for you! They also have pickleball lessons and four outdoor courts for rental.

When I first started playing pickleball here, 4 years ago it was a good experience but…read moreunfortunately over time it was not so good. it was suppose to be a open format, where you put your paddles in line and the next 4 people are up. But as time went on , the organizer, Mike , would allow people to put their paddles together and it got to be where the guys ,mostly, were pulling their paddles and other people's paddles out of order so they could play together. I watched it happen all the time and when I said something, I was bullied and they had the nerve to complain to Mike about me. So one day, I put my paddle in an open spot near the front and Mike took it out and put it in the back. Then he waited for a guy who was playing, to get done and let him go rin MY open spot, and he went RIGHT back out and played with his 3 "buddies" !! So people should know they so NOT playing real open pickleball rules there., and ....Mike charges $7.09 to play on these city courts. So I just want people to be aware of this. I recommend Manhattan beach heights, mb intermediate school, Ernie Howkett park and Walteria courts as good places to play if you like fair open piickleball ball rules , and nice people who aren't "male bullies" who just want to bang the ball at you.

Best place for pickleball on the westside!! Love MRC for so many reasons. I just joined as a member…read moreand as a beginner pickleball player, appreciate the clinics and round robin so much.

I'm not very athletic and haven't played tennis before, but she made me feel incredibly comfortable. I can already see my progress after just two classes. Kern from the management is also very friendly and accommodating, he allowed me to retake the class that I missed due to sickness. The courts are clean, and the vibe is luxurious. I will be taking more classes here and will recommend them to friends.

He didn't bother to come around the counter to assist me. There was another man walking by and I got his attention to ask him a question. He was helpful. I went ahead and bought the racket anyways and the man behind the counter barely even acknowledged or thanked me. I have to ask him if we are set. Bad customer service. Won't be back here again. There are other places to buy tennis gear.

We've been bringing our kids to swim lessons at the Griffin Club for nearly a year and have…read moregenuinely enjoyed the experience (besides the food that really lacks quality and consistency). The swim instructors are wonderful and it's been a positive environment for our family. We were informed that non-members are only allowed to participate in swim lessons for a limited period (12 weeks). The fact that we were able to enjoy the club for nearly a year was an exception. We understood and respected the policy. Because we liked the club and have many friends who are members, we decided to move forward with a membership-- paying the significant initiation fee. However, after joining, we learned that some non-members we've seen in the past are now able to enroll in swim lessons by having member friends sign them up. This workaround seems to be very unfair, which makes the enforcement of the policy feel inconsistent. We've also heard ongoing concerns from members about how non-member participation in swim lessons can make scheduling more competitive. While we understand this from both sides, especially since we were recently non-members ourselves, it does highlight a broader issue around fairness and how benefits are structured. Members should always be given the priority. It's disappointing because we made a significant financial commitment based on what we were told. Greater clarity and consistency in how these policies are applied would go a long way in building trust and ensuring all members feel they are receiving the value they signed up for.

Gave them a second, third, and fourth chance…read more.. This was probably my 7th time joining zog sports league and EVERY TIME there is a screw up. I really liked joining to stay active and getting to meet new people. However I won't be joining their leagues any longer and I urge you all to do the same. This time I joined a basketball league in Koreatown. Perhaps a new location would be better... The whole setup was a mess- players didn't know which team they were on, refs didn't show up, and parking was a nightmare (ok, parking isn't technically their fault). We only played 3 games total - the rest were either forfeited or played half court because none of the teams and players showed up. Before I didn't blame Zog but this has been a recurring scenario every season which leads me to believe they are padding their roster and teams. We were promised to have two referees every week - only one shows up every week. We always have to have a player on a team to track score and fouls because of this. Our final game of the season AND playoffs were cancelled because they didn't properly secure the venue. They didn't offer us refunds and gave us a laughable $5 credit to join future leagues. You have one important job that is to secure the venue and couldn't even do that... To sum it up... DO NOT JOIN SAVE YOUR MONEY. Another note they didn't mention anything about charity and which org we would like to donate to this time (which they clearly state in their website). Pretty much scam artists what more can I say.

Other competitors don't even come close to what Zog offers players in the community, zog to me was just a casual night out to play softball but than it turned into a family/ community of fun every night I have the opportunity play ANYTHING HONESTLY FROM KICKBALL OMG kickball in the Venice beach and Hollywood area is the best ! The locations we play at for both are very friendly and great views/ scenery! Teams are amazing and openly welcoming to any one at ANY LEVEL OF PLAY! From beginners to advanced players everyone has fun! Their WEBSITE IS SO EASY TO USE ! I registered as a F/A in kickball and was placed on an amazing team! I even stay after my game to play other games because sometimes players don't show up so they need subs, there no ref fees ! THANK GOD ! Now I'm playing softball and won a few of my leagues overall a great experience and my home. I promise you you'll have the best adult rec sports time of your life
