There's axe throwing , bumper cars, a go-kart course surrounded by dinosaurs, plenty of pinball machines, laser tag, VR arenas featuring 3D simulator attractions, and a 3D XD Dark Ride Adventure Theater that seats eight people. The pinball machines are typically $1 or more per game, while the classic arcade games are just 50 cents each! I was especially in awe of the incredible pinball machines, including The X-Files, John Wick, Aerosmith, South Park, and more. A big thank-you to Allie for being so sweet and taking a video of us on the bumper cars! There is so much to do at Pinballz and so little time. I definitely need to come back for another visit!

My family was going there weekly which is quite expensive but was great when they were having fun…read more My 4 years old has not wanted to go for a bit since he was yelled at twice in one visit for bringing his sippy cup in which really made him uncomfortable. We were in the process of leaving the second time. Every time we would go, multiple games wouldn't work but it's part of the pinballz experience and we just wrote it off as no big deal but the losses do pile up. I was there today and it was busy and more than half of the games didn't work. When they did work; they had glitches. I found an employee which is tough and they saw what I was saying and apologized and said to go to the counter and they can credit me back. The woman at the counter wasn't as nice and told me she wouldn't be crediting me back for games that didn't work and said it with a huge attitude. The way people treat people there is wild. I've literally spent thousands of dollars and when telling them I was having issues with 5 games and would like to be credited back for the games that didn't work; they seemed to take satisfaction in telling me no. I won't be back and no one there cares. Broken games and counter people with superiority complexes aren't a great match but they will still make their money. The last thing this place is is fun.

Staff is friendly however the bowling lanes in the private room by the door are iffy. Twice now…read morewe've gotten the 2 lanes and there is no reset button. Once it got locked, we requested service which took plenty of time off our play time (NOT FAIR when you're paying by the hour!!). The other time, a ball was just rolled down which reset but unsure how it affected the score. Bumpers popped up unexpectedly for one player. Had to request they be taken down. The food is meh..... sliders, fried pickles (which are speared), egg rolls, wings, mozzarella sticks. Prizes aren't anything to play over. Variety of games to play though (similar to many other game venues). Do recommend laser tag! The set up is good. Two stories, high and low walls to hide behind. Tables can be cleaned more often but fairly clean overall.

Ok what a cute place in an amazing location. Just stepping into Old Taylor Highschool feels so…read morehistoric. The arcade is very nice and has several things to do besides arcade machines.

Via a mutual friend, we were invited to the grand opening event. TX Craft is a cool venture that…read moreoffers art and crafts classes for both the young and old. They also have a small boutique that offers unique Texas-themed sundries, including clothing. Last but not least there is a custom furniture maker affiliated with TCC. I viewed his brag book and he can design and build custom furniture at a very reasonable price. Plus 1 was pretty excited to sign up for a ladies night out to wine, socialize, and do an arts and craft class. Friendly folks in a cool country setting.

After getting back from a trip packed with walking (and unexpectedly shedding a few pounds!), my…read morehusband and I were determined to keep the momentum going. We were on the hunt literally for something fun, active, and a little outside the norm for our weekend. That's when we stumbled upon a local scavenger hunt experience right near home. It sounded like the perfect blend of movement and adventure so we signed up. Enter MJ, our energetic and enthusiastic Hunt Guide. From the moment we started, she was cheering us on, keeping the energy high, and encouraging us every step of the way. The two-hour hunt flew by. While we didn't manage to complete the entire list, we made up for it with a few fun bonus missions that boosted our final score. One of the most memorable moments? Walking into a dive bar on a mission to find a San Marcos native. The second we stepped in, the music didn't stop but it may as well have. Heads turned. It felt like we were aliens who accidentally landed in the middle of someone's regular Saturday scene. But, mission accomplished! We found a guy who looked like a leather-clad biker from a movie turns out, he was born and raised in San Marcos and couldn't have been more welcoming. The hunt turned into more than just a game. We discovered hidden corners of the city, chatted with locals, and learned that San Marcos is not just a great college town it's somewhere we would've loved to have spent our college years. What really stood out was the variety of activities throughout the hunt each one pushed us just a little out of our comfort zone and made us laugh, connect, and enjoy being in the moment together. If you're looking for a unique way to explore a city, meet new people, and get moving, I can't recommend this hunt enough. We're already eyeing Kit Kat's other hunts in different cities!

It wouldve been a lot easier to be sent a challenge or 2 at a time instead of the pick and choose style that had my face stuck in my phone for the entire 20 mins before I declined to start. And the owner will not issue a refund even though I didn't participate so that's terrible practice.

Wow! Amazing petting zoo! My son's first birthday party was incredible because of this petting zoo…read more The animals were super cute and they had a variety of animals; goats, baby chicks, chickens, bunnies, a small pig, and ducks. The kids absolutely loved all of the animals and especially the pony rides! The people are friendly and very informative of the animals while the kids were petting them. They were able to set up wherever we wanted which was convenient and so exciting to have right in our backyard. They were quick to set up and to even put the animals away. This petting zoo is affordable and easy to contact and book. I highly recommend them if you are interested in booking a petting zoo. Thank you for making our son's first birthday a memorable one!

The point of contact was very unprofessional and never confirmed my booking two weeks in advance…read moreeven after deposit was made. Was told the date I wanted to book was open only to be told it was double booked after they took my deposit. Afterwards the staff never returned any of my many emails, voicemails or calls. While I wanted to love this company, I unfortunately was extremely disappointed and out my deposit although I never breached contract and should have received a refund or at the very least a call back or email back. Terrible experience that almost ruined the event, gratefully I was able to find a replacement since I could never get El Rancho representatives to email or call me back after many attempts.

The party was for elementary aged kiddos but middle school kids and even parents got in on the games. It was super easy to book online and the team emailed me to confirm the same evening I booked. The staff member was professional, friendly, responsive and helped me pick the location to host. When he arrived he set it quickly and gave great instructions. He kept the attention of kids (as young as 5) and full grown adults for the full game. The set up and equipment is impressive and it was by far the best and easiest birthday party we've thrown for our kiddo! We have already booked again for an upcoming block party.

On the day of the event, I didn't really know what to expect. Mitch was on time, walked us through how the event would go, and started setting stuff up. He was great with our large group of 10-year-old girls and had them running missions in no time. The kids did not stop sprinting and laughing for the solid 2 hours. I highly recommend Run N' Gun for a kid's party or even a team-building event. Bonus, he sends you a highlight reel after the event so you can share it with friends and family. Thanks!!
