This pumpkin patch was so cute! There was no fee to enter which was so nice! We came during the week with our toddler and she absolutely loved it. Tickets to do stuff was affordable they had a petting zoo and so many photo opps. They sold little pumpkins we got a couple, they had a petting zoo, maze, and train. We loved our visit and plan to return next year! read more

Cute little pumpkin patch but not worth it. You're better off spending your money at Oma's or Bates pumpkin patches. Literally $5 a ride/slide and they don't even give you anything close to 5min on it. Was here for 15-20 min and spent $35+. Will not be coming back. read more

We had the best time at this pumpkin patch! No entry fee, just tickets available for purchase and packages are available!! Rides are age appropriate for our 3-5 yro. They also have a variety of slides. One thing I think stood out to me was the employees and staff. I had a pleasant experience with each ride operator! They were so kind and friendly. They were very helpful and attentive to our kids. It seemed there was no time-limit because our kiddos kept going over and over again down the slides and into the jumpy houses, the attendants interacted with them as well. Employees made it so worth the experience overall and well worth the prices. My favorite area was the petting zoo. All the goats were so beautiful and kid-friendly!! The attendant there was also very engaged and just all around lovely. I also love their array of pumpkins and mini, family-friendly photo ops. I recommend this pumpkin patch out of all the the ones I've visited for its location, customer service and ride variety. 10/10!! read more

Good for young kids. Can't say the same for young adults/adults. A cute place though non the less.

One I tried to take a cute picture and I got scolded for trying to use a wheelbarrow because I "did not purchase a pumpkin" which I had just gotten there and wanted to take a picture that's all.and if your Parent, to older children, I would not recommend this place because all of their activities were from children six-year-old and under there were only two slides that my 12-year-old daughters can go on and they did not enjoy it. They spent the whole time on their phones, so if you're trying to get your children off devices, do not recommend coming to this pumpkin patch I recommend the one in Carlsbad over this one. read more

Pumpkin Station - About to crave my pumpkin - Pumpkin Patches Near Me - San Diego, California

Horrible experience! In 45 minutes, one of my sons was able to go on ONE slide and my other went on a train ride and one slide. We were in line at 8:50pm and the person said they were done for the night, so no more kids were going to be able to go on the bounce house jumpy. They were closing (at 9pm). Kids were so bummed. Horrible way of utilizing bounce houses. Not worth time or money. And it's expensive! Do NOT recommend. read more

This is the first pumpkin patch I've ever been to. Took my son here and we both enjoyed it very much. Even though there wasn't much variety of things to do it was still a fun experience for the both of us. The employees here are very nice. One of the older gentleman that has been working at the pumpkin station for many years told me that there usually is more stuff set up but due to COVID they weren't able to have them on display this year. The great thing about the tickets is if you don't use them all they never expire so definitely holding onto the leftover tickets for next year! There is a large variety of pumpkins to choose from for a really great price. read more

Well first I was looking for a pumpkin patch that is not to far from where I live . So of course I search yelp and google pumpkin patches in San Diego !! So this pumpkin patch is right in the middle and is located in the Mission Valley shopping center Westfield Shopping Town !! It is an good pumpkin patch with plenty of things for your kids to do !! There is an petting area for your kids also there were a couple of rides here also !! But it costs 4..00 for one ticket and the only ride you could go on with your kids is the train ride the others the kids are only allowed to ride by them selves !! As for the selection of Pumpkins it does have all sorts of pumpkins here !! The workers here were ok but some did not know much. !! I ask how much is a ticket for a ride for my kid and he did not know !! Talk about lame !! If you work here you should know come on man !! Service is so so but the pumpkin patch is good for all and your kids will like it here !! No charge to come here and I can see myself coming back again !! read more

This place is one of a kind. The staff is so friendly and considerate of the smaller kids safety. Its very clean and they have handwashing stations which is great ! the tickets to the rides are $5 each which isn't pricy but it adds up if your child wants to get on everything like mine. overall had a great expirience. i am from LA and would drive back to SD for this place. read more

Pumpkin Station - safe rides for toddlers. the staff was very attentive - Pumpkin Patches Near Me - San Diego, California

Pumpkin station is a great place to take your family and kids to. Not so much a adult entertainment place but more so for the kids. The kids loved the rides that are there; where as to adults are not allowed on any rides. They have a game arcade which my girls loved. At $2 to play each game you are guaranteed to win a plastic blow up toy. A sense on accomplishment in their eyes when they win is indescribable. The workers there are very friendly and nice. Pumpkins for sale and a petting zoo gives extra things to do. Overall a great place for pictures, kid fun and family experience. read more

You know when the wind does that blowy thing and the leaves on the ground blow in a circle, the air has a slight chill to it, moon gets brighter - you just feel Halloween in your heart. You feel me? You know what happiness is....when Pumpkin patch stations start poppin up all over town with the cute warm yellow string lights, blow up slides & stacks of hay with rows of pumpkin all around. I swear I'm really a 10 year old girl inside, I think Im really out here having more fun then the lil children running around. I hope this station never shuts down - please come back every year please please please. I decided I love this station out of all the stations I've ever stepped foot in. Adults get in free - children come in for $15 a pop, but relax with that amount of cash the kids get access to ALL blow ups and rides. Amazing! We love a good deal. All the games are around $3, cute lil prizes you can win - I love the ball and chain with nails sticking out of it blow up he he he. Little kids were bopping each other in the head with these blow ups. read more

people in the front were nice but an old man was rude I understand there's rules but you should watch how you answer things so my son has austism & club foot and he enjoys the inflatable slides but won't do by himself so I go on everything with him to help him and teach him to not be afraid of anything anyways everyone was falling once you get down there so when I go on with my son I put him in front of me and I guess it's not safe or whatever but as I was explaining he said it doesn't matter what he has and that was rude so I left very unprofessional read more

This location is best for very small kids in order to participate in most rides. Probably 4 and under unless you have a petite short child. Not that much ride or activity for 6yrs old or older. There should be advisory to inform the community or public of height limitations for most rides. Entrance is free but a ticket per ride or jumpers is $5 and has a short time limitation. There is a bundle deal 12 tickets for $44 and above. read more

Love taking our grandkids each year BUT the safety features are questionable! The flimsy safety straps are faulty, many don't tighten enough to hold the kids in! The train doesn't even have a bell for the kids to ring now! The personnel are lazy and inattentive. They have limited people to oversee the rides so they rotate from ride to ride- so all the rides don't run at the same time- when you ask about a ride they make an excuse, "It's broken..." Then another attendant will come over and start up the ride (because they're not lazy). So sad for the children and families who enjoy the annual Pumpkin Station. read more

This is not my favorite pumpkin patch sadly. Prices are a little too high and staff was not that friendly. At closing time one of the older staff members yelled at my friends daughter and I to leave. A friendly "hey we are closing right now" would have been nice. No actual food inside the pumpkin patch. Must purchase a ticket for the petting zoo, all rides, and all bouncers. Petting zoo: Yes Parking: Yes Recommended: No, find somewhere else. Unless you want your child to get scolded. read more

Seemed like a good place to be during the October and November months. Although it was a bit expensive it was definitely worth the experience for our family. Will definitely return next year :) read more

Came here on opening day, and the crowd was minimal. Kids got to ride longer & jump longer in the inflatables. Check the website and print off one free train ride. Then go to Groupon and purchase tickets online 12 tickets for $17 (excellent deal). Or if you come on the day, it cost $3.50 each. Come on day of: 12 tickets $34 24 tickets $56 36 tickets $70 read more

I have a confession.....this year was my first time EVER visiting a pumpkin patch and it was so much fun that I've already been there three times in a week. The reason I haven't been in the past is because unless you are going with children, it's not really a place for adults or older children/teenagers to hang out. Now that I'm a new mommy, I love this place mostly because my toddler loves it! It's located conveniently off the 8 freeway (in the Macy's/Bed Bath and Beyond parking lot) in Mission Valley. The admission is free, but you have to pay for the rides, $3.50 each=1 ticket (they offer discounts off the tickets online). There is NO CHARGE for an adult accompanying a child on the El Paso Train Ride, Carousel, or in the Petting Zoo. Hands down, my favorite station is the petting zoo. They currently two adorable baby goats. They also have rabbits and two chickens. The goats are all female and non-agressive. You can also feed them alfalfa for an additional $1. Now you....yes YOU....you will get a BONUS reward for reading my review!!! The link below is for a coupon for a free train ride: http://www.pumpkinstation.com/coupon/ read more

first time visiting a san diego pumpkin patch and it was quite fun. i like that the pumpking patch area is tented -- plenty of pumpkins for you to choose from and it seem to be decently priced. Those baby pumpkins are $1 only. and the colored pumpkins and squashes are $2-3 there are rides for little kids and a petting zoo. They also have food and drinks. I noticed that there are two empty tents for people to rent out to have parties at which i thought that was neat. I don't think i've seen a pumpkin patch where people can have parties. Good for little kids because little kids can go on rides and play some carnival games. Not sure how much those tents costs to rent out. It's free to walk into the petting zoo, there were goats and bunnies they were all under a tent. I think it's $1 to get some grass to feed the animals. read more

Well it's alright when you don't have enough time to head out to Bates Nut Farm. The staff have poor attitudes and are bordering on rude, but as long as the kids have fun, who am I to complain? At least they allowed unlimited time on a slide for one ticket. This time around, the petting zoo was quite clean, but unfortunately, my 6 y.o was no longer interested in "wasting" a ticket on this. He was all about the giant slides. I think he must've slid down each one at least 20 times, then went back around again for more. He was too tall for the mini-ferris wheel, and un-interested in the trains or the spin-boat ride. I wasn't about to pay extra for the ball-toss games. At $30 for 12 tickets, that's enough! Apparently there was a Groupon to get the tickets for only $15. There was a nice selection of pumpkins in the patch, but quite expensive! The Vons near our house has much better prices for similar sized pumpkins. Plenty of parking, but, no food? well at least the Mission Valley food court, In and Out and Taco Bell are just a short walk away. Overall a good way to spend a couple hours on a weekday afternoon but not worth waiting in lines for. read more

Honestly, what is there not to love about this place? The staff is AMAZING, you can tell they're working hard to keep children and parents safe and satisfied - they know how to make customers happy! They have a fun game zone and for some games, you get a prize every time for $1-2 which is not bad at all. The rides, slides, and petting zoo are just one ticket. Tickets are $3.50 each, but there are package deals for the tickets which lasts you the whole month. The pumpkins are in good shape and have decent prices. Here, you'll find the perfect one to bring home and carve! Overall, the experience that I had was unbelievable. I am definitely coming back whenever I get the chance before it shuts down (October 31st) and the many years to come! read more

Pumpkin Station - Breathtaking sunset at the pumpkin patch - Pumpkin Patches Near Me - San Diego, California

Very calming good for kids or a date . Entrance was free which was nice . I'll definitely come back also dog friendly

Took my 7 yr old non verbal (very autistic) son there Saturday night. It was packed. THANKS to the incredibly kind man who was working the bounce house my son finally got the courage to get in. This man was so patient and helpful my bear felt safe. And welcome..... he said my son deserved to have as much fun as all the kids and he did.... I had tears of joy cause not all people are as understanding as he was given the chaos of a kid filled area..... The fellas at the huge slide were also very patient and sweet.... I would strongly recommend this place for any special-needs kiddos!!!!! for two hours I forgot my son had autism and he was just a kid in a pumpkin patch...... Awesome rides awesome people epic night..... Thanks all read more

The address on here is wrong! We kept going in circles and found it on our own after driving around the area.

The pumpkins lasted about 4 days. Aside from the sweet older lady who helped us checkout, the staff seemed annoyed to be there. Most of the pumpkins looked the same, and there was not much more to it. Definitely one of the least eventful pumpkin patches. read more

We have visited the Mission Valley Pumpkin Station for years and this year was no exception to the fun my kids had! The staff were extremely friendly and let the kids ride super long. The pumpkins were great quality and there was plenty to do. I like that if you purchase tickets, they are good even the next year. My only complaint is the little carnival games... we won a medium prize and two small prizes and they wouldn't let me trade in the two smalls for a medium. Some flexibility would be nice. The guy working the games seemed like a grump too. Here's a tip:purchase your tickets in advance through groupon or circle buzz for amazing savings! read more

Brought our Special Needs Clients out to the Pumpkin Patch for the start of Fall Season. Received such a great experience with welcoming staff (Manager Kim and Modena). Flat grounds were perfect for our clients in wheelchairs. They had pumpkins of all sizes. Amazingly HUGE ones too! There was a petting zoo, mini carnival rides for small children and a few inflatable slides. They even had an area of fair games to play. Kim and Modena expressed how wonderful they think it is when they see the Special Needs community out and about experiencing "normal" things. Manager Kim was even kind enough to give each of our clients a mini pumpkin! We will definitely be back this season with our own families to enjoy this patch! read more

They only had 6 fair games working but it was a ton of fun as a family activity my daughter had a blast

Had a good experience , just a little upset with the fact that there wasn't much to do since it's more for little kids then for teens or adults. read more

This pumpkin patch is really not that great. Rides are for 1-2 year olds. Tickets are pretty pricey. Recommended for small children.

What can you say, it is in Mission Valley mall. It is in the parking lot and they put hay on the asphalt. Pumpkins are overpriced, a complete ripoff $15 for a standard size pumpkin! There is a petting zoo and a small train ride for babies and toddlers. It is sufficient if you want to take pictures with pumpkins on hay bales, without traveling far. Lots of high school kids from the mall come here for their photo ops. Employees are pretty rude redneck carnies. Buy your pumpkins elsewhere. read more

Wanted a pumpkin for carving and we decided to come here. I have never been to a pumpkin patch so this was a great experience. Different size pumpkins and different prices, the workers were very helpful. I hope my carving skills are just as good read more

We took the kiddos to pick out pumpkins at the Pumpkin Station down at Mission Valley Mall yesterday. During our trip, we visited their Petting Zoo. I noticed a bunny kind of sprawled out in her cage in DIRECT sunlight. And mind you, it's been extremely hot lately. She was breathing rapidly and didn't look too well. I mentioned to one of the workers that their bunny was in the direct sunlight and wasn't looking so good. Her response? "She's fine. I just sprayed her with water." I told her that the bunny wasn't fine and that she needed to be moved into the shade. And asked if there was management I could talk to about getting this bunny moved. And with an attitude she told me she would get someone. Another worker who was there apologized and grabbed the bunny out of its cage and took it into the shade. And even mentioned that the poor bunny was breathing really fast. And then management came... An older white lady with really short hair. (I didn't catch her name but I will be going back for it.) And this is how our conversation went: Her: "So I heard you were having a problem with one of our bunnies." Me: "I have an issue with the bunny sitting there in direct sunlight with no available shade. And the poor thing is laying there breathing fast because it's so hot." Her: "It's normal for bunnies to breathe fast." Me: "No, that is not normal. The bunny needs to be moved. There's absolutely no shade for it." Her: "We do have a tarp that shades it at other times of the day. The sun DOES move throughout the day." Me: "What about the other times of the day?! Like now?!" Her: "What do you want me to do? Move the tarp?" Me: "No. I expect you to move the damn bunny!" Her: "Well maybe we need to charge more for people to come in here." ???!!! Me: "All I'm asking is to move the bunny into the shade. Just the necessities. It's really that simple." Her: "We take very good care of our animals here. Our bunnies get sprayed down and bottles of ice." Me: "Well it had neither. And maybe I will send this video (I had taken a video earlier.) into Animal Services and see what they have to say." Her: "Alright. Well are you ready to leave?" Me: "Nope." She followed me around the entire time I was in there and left when I left. read more

Overall, we had a great time! We used a coupon to get ride tickets for half off, which was nice. The petting zoo was the biggest hit! The kids played in there for about an hour. For $1, you can buy a bag of greens to feed the goats. The kids loved feeding the goats, even though they got chased a little. They also have bunnies and chickens at the petting zoo. Pumpkin Station has a handful of bouncy houses and a few other rides (though many of the rides were geared towards smaller children). The one thing that tripped me out a little about the experience is that when the attendant for one of the rides took a break or left, the person who covered for him did not seem to know what was going on and I wasn't even sure if he actually worked there. read more

The staff is very friendly here, we took my toddler to some of the rides and bounce houses that they have and sadly she wouldn't take to many of them. She cried or struggled with a lot of their attractions due to her young age and they would always return the admission ticket back to me if they saw she didn't take full advantage of the ride. I asked if I could use my leftover tickets towards the purchase of some pumpkins and they said no and wouldn't refund them. That was the real disapointment. Why they wouldn't let me use them towards a purchase of their pumpkins was beyond me, Gina and Grace did not even try to meet me halfway, poor customer service on their end if you ask me. read more

We took our grandsons 3yrs and 17 months and they had the best time ever!!! The staff was great and HELPED my grandson win a prize when playing the games.

We went on sunday as soon as it opened and there were no crowds we will take them back next year for sure! read more

Great seasonal event to enjoy for FREE. Perfect family trip with plenty of rides and attractions for the kids. It's only $3 per ride and they don't expire, so they're good to use the following year or for a different visit! read more

If your kids are older than 2 or 3 don't come. Rides are boring and expensive. Carnival games are lame.
