I don’t know what this place is trying to be. One star for the overly complicated laser tag scoring system and decor, but that’s it. Food was gross and made me sick. It looked like it was microwaved. The nachos in the photo were unwrapped and heated at the start of the night…no one got any and they wrapped them back up and turned the light out. So buyer beware…don’t get the nachos. Actually, don’t get anything from here. Games were a rip off. A few took your money from the card play and that’s it.

I organized a large corporate event for ~125 people at Area53 Laser Tag, Mini-Bowling, Arcade and did a buyout of their space for the evening. I can't say enough good things about this place! The entire process was painless from start to finish– everyone I spoke to over email & over the phone were incredibly responsive and helpful. The staff on the day of the event did fantastic work getting everything set up, getting the arcade cards loaded for us, and making sure all of the laser tag games were running on a timely schedule. Jose in particular really went above and beyond as a host making sure the event was as fun as possible for all of the attendees. He also mentioned that Area53 has something like 16 giant AC units, which was a game changer when hosting an event on one of the hottest days of the year. The space itself has a very cool industrial vibe, with plenty of space for mini bowling & lots of different arcade games. It kept everyone entertained for hours. Will definitely be making an effort to organize future events here since our experience was so positive!

Great place for kids parties. They have adult nights as well which is a bonus. It's a small place but inside is big w lots of running room. Mini bowling and laser tag was fun. Workers were nice and attentive. Will visit again 👍🤗

It was cool! I will be back, I would like to try the laser tag. After about an hour, it does get a little redundant so I suggest to go with a group. The zip line is cool. They definitely have many rock climbing walls, my grandson did some and my little son did some so they have enough for the family. A cute small skating rink and little arcade games. The only thing is the food is way overpriced so I didn't try it.
But nice to hang out on Friday night. Had some good vibes .
