7 reviews for Boomers
Family fun Center, Arcades, Indoor/Outdoor/Cosmic golf, Go Karts, Kiddie Rides, Batting Cages, Bumper Boats, and the Be Bop Café......
I'm as happy as a kid in a candy store.... Maybe even more, I never was too happy in a candy store.... Who wants "god knows how old it may be" stale hard candy?
Oh Boomers, how you bring back memories! I used to go here at least once every other month when I was little and it used to be called Bullwinkle's. If you look close enough you can still see some of the old Bullwinkle's stuff.
Me and my friend, now in our 20's would come here (to the Be-Bop Café) for a quiet night to get a bite to eat and play in the batting cages. It was a cheap way to start off our night if we had nothing better to do, but I can see it getting pricy for a family of 4 or more. You can always check out their website and they have specials and deals you can take advantage of. The food in the Be-Bop Café is ok, about the same as you will get a Chuck-E-Cheese, but with a bit more variety. They have root beer floats! They also have spaghetti and sandwiches and like fry's and stuff, but nothing to die for. Just good old cheap junk food, you can get a salad there but why go to a pizza place for a salad? It does and always has had that funny indoor arcade smell to it. They used to have an indoor water show when it was Bullwinkle's with those creepy/great talking character robots, but now on the weekends they have the waiters and waitresses that dress up in 50's Be-Bop do hula hoop contest with the kids on the stage. Though I've never been there for that, I like to go when it's not really busy at all. (Keep in mind not everything is opened every day, the Kiddie rides, and Bumper Boats are closed Monday - Thursday)
It's a little old, and a little run down, but it's a good place to kill some time, have some fun, and get out of the house! And if you have Kids, they will have a blast! The best part that I remember as a kid, it was never super crowded and we never had to wait long for anything.
This place was great when i went.
Cosmic golf was awesome!
Go carts was great
Batting cages were fun.
Water boats...........aww man who wet me?
The carousel was extremely fast, scared the begezees out of me. Was it because i was pregnant??? hmmm ? Maybe!
Good for kids over 6. Have not tried the food. But didn't seem appetizing. These type of places i would not eat at, unless you were born and raised off the microwave... (oops did i say that?) No offense!
Recommend? Yes. Kind of pricey though. Expect to pay.
Oh, did i mention i lost my wallet there??? I did... Someone actually went to my moms' house 25 miles away and left it with her Apt. manager. I use my moms address on my D.L..
Thank you person who did that for me... Although.... I was missing a dollar..... Fine with me =)
I took my two little ones here recently this place has gone way down since the last time i visited (like 2003). I'm not sure if its because i was there on a Thursday that all the water was drained from the golfing area and the fountains were not on or working but it looked really bad and run down in there, the only reason i would go back is for the go karts but that's about it, they need to rehab that place arcade and all.
Coming here after Boomer's Cafe is like, "this is cool, all these games, golf, air hockey, coughcoughcough, what's that smell?"
It was stuffy and funky up in here. Not sure if it just so happens but it was like walking into gang-land in here. Thugs everywhere and their girlfriend's and kids. We were here for a birthday party so we had little kids running around here. My best friend and his wife and I were following the birthday boy around the place making sure he wasn't getting pushed around by the older kids. He sure knew where or who to ask for more tokens to continue to play the games. He was certainly having fun but I was ready to get the fuck out of there. I rather go to Golf 'n Stuff off the 605 and the 5 frwy but I'll be returning here tonight for the same birthday party. Someone shoot me now!
Good Time!
Havent been here for awhile but reviewing it because i just went to scandia today and saw this on here also. This is another dump :-) The inside golf stinks as in it smells bad!!! because of the water inside. and the staff sucks. Needs an overhaul
Cosmic Golf. Need I say more? Who doesn't like a round of mini-golf on a black-light course? I came here after taking the bar exam in Ontario, and it was the perfect activity to unwind from 3 days of exam hell. They also have an arcade, outdoor mini-golf, AND bumper cars. Perfect place for a nerd like me to spend an evening. I would go more often if only it wasn't in Upland and if only I had a car, sigh. Highly recommended if you're looking for some fun off the I-10.
