Golf & Games Family Park

Lots of stuff to do here from golf to several batting cages, arcade games, miniature golf, and go carts. It’s a pretty cool place and I play putt putt for free with my military ID!

We are visiting Memphis for our son’s birthday.
We spent approximately 160.00 for the worse day of our lives. The place is horrific. Most of the games and «attractions» were broken. No one notified us of how broken everything was. The arcade has zero variety with over priced crap.
The opportunity to win tickets is little to none which is normal, but, when you have such a horrible selection and games, I hoped you could win more than a couple of tickets on the one or two tickets on the ones that weren’t broken. The go karts at the start of the «race» weren’t even turned on, so one car went and halfway around the other one kinda went and then the last one was able to go. Therefore the fun in the race was skewed. Did we get to go again? No. Of course not.
But! There is air hockey! Best game ever right?!
… That is until the machine literally falls apart while you’re playing it. The place where the puck goes in, fell off catching my hand as it did. Think anyone cared that I was injured? No.
Staff are horrible, very rude.
Total waste of time, money and energy. Do not bother. Ever heard of incredible pizza? Go there. Better yet, stay at home and watch paint dry, that’s easily 100 times more fun.

Pretty fun family fun center. Funland for the littler ones could use an upgrade, but great for middle school ages. We would come back and recommend. They have military discount too.

If there was an option to give 0 stars I would. My little cousin won over 500 tickets on a particular game, but the card reader did not transfer. After I told an employee, his response was «The best I can do is give you a free game.» I understand that people probably say that sort of thing a lot, but I was very disappointed in their response. My little cousin was devastated. I am not pleased with this place at all.

I like this place. I tend to tell myself I don’t, but then I go and I love it. After our recent bout of failed arcade trips, my appreciation for Gold and Games has grown. This place is great for any age, even my two year old has a blast.

I love this place and was reminded of that when we stopped in for a late nigh putt putt game this week. This place is nothing fancy but you will have a lot of fun if you can remember to act like a 10 year old while you are here. I believe they have 2 or 3 putt putt courses again nothing fancy a little worn out but they keep the place clean and the uneven bumpy old course just adds more of a challenge. There has been many heated putt putt games had here! If you really want to see our group quickly become enemies this happens when we head to the go kart track. Pretty decent size and as always there are a few slow karts but tons of fun for smashing into your friends and trash talking them. If you have younger children there is a whole area for them with a few rides plus bumper boats, bumper cars, and batting cages. There is also a driving range about one of the last few in the area at least that I know of.
Next time we will have to try out laser tag with my group I am sure some hard feelings will be had once we leave lol

I recently attended a birthday party for my best friend’s little boy — he was turning 7 & apparently, the Lasertron/​Putt Putt birthday party is once again all the rage. I remember when the Putt Putt party was the rage the 1^st time. (It wasn’t THAT long ago for those currently making age assumptions, albeit there was no such thing as Lasertron back then.) Secretly, I was kind of excited about an excuse to play Lasertron & was really excited to find out that the «course» would be closed to anyone who wasn’t a part of the birthday party. No teenagers to make me look out of shape & only 7 yr. olds to contend with — It sounded promising!
I planned on arriving early to help with any last minute set-​up issues, even though my best friend had informed me there was no need because Putt Putt supplied «party teens.» We both laughed at the sound of «party teens» but assumed they would be high-​schoolers who were well-​equipped to deal with a group of 7 year old boys. As I pulled into the parking lot at 12:30 (for a 1pm party), I was thankful for the «party teens» — there was ZERO place to park & I wouldn’t be arriving early. After 20 min. of searching & dealing with adults who obviously mistook their automobiles for bumper cars, I finally found a spot.

Inside, was no better than the parking lot. I had hoped that parents who could afford Putt Putt video games & LaserTron as a Saturday family activity would actually be participating as a family & not using it as a place to drop off their children. I was wrong.
I found my best friend & we went to stash our purses in the party so that we didn’t have to play Lasertron looking like Thelma Harper from Mama’s Family. There were cubby holes but nothing locked nor did the door to the room & we weren’t comfortable leaving purses just laying around for potential nabbers. Luckily, another friend volunteered herself as the designated purse holder.
Next, the «party teen» who was no «bigger» than many of the kids running around the arcade, wanted to make sure everyone who was going to play, had been properly signed up. It was confusing to say the least. I have to admit, my best friend isn’t the most organized person, but in this situation she wasn’t the only one.
We all gathered in the dark Laser Tag room to learn the rules as explained to us by another «party teen.» He spent 7 min. explaining where the bases were located & how to «re-​up» your ammo before realizing that these kids weren’t playing that version — they were playing a simplified «every man for themselves» game. Basically, you run around & shoot people. No teams or bases. Just a leaderboard at the end of 3 games. ADVICE: parents of younger children — make sure that you request this type of game because the other version is too complicated for the best of us.
Once inside the arena, I was extremely impressed. It was larger than any other venue’s arena, included 2 levels, VERY clean, spread out, & there were no spots where you could injure yourself. Trust me — we would’ve figured out how to have hurt something, somewhere, if it were possible! After the buzzer signaled the end of the final game, the typically active adults that we are, were plum tuckered out (that’s southern for we were sweaty, out of breath, & wanted to lay down). But, the kids were happy! It was time to reconvene in the party room for pizza, cake, and presents.
Our «party teen» eventually joined us in the party room & tried to hand out LaserTag scoresheets. The pizza was already being passed out by the birthday boy’s father — it looked most disgusting & was cold but the kids didn’t notice. She then tried to hand out the arcade «tokens» (now on a card), but after announcing that birthday boy got extra «tokens,» she proceeded to give the card to the wrong kid. Getting it back was fun.
Then, the lead «party teen» came by and asked the birthday boy’s name. Our «party teen» told her the wrong name & pointed to the wrong kid. We corrected her. Then, we corrected the lead «party teen.» She continued to call the birthday boy the wrong name throughout the party. His name isn’t odd. Next, our «party teen» gave my best friend the bill without explaining anything about the included Putt Putt, other than it was included. She never returned. So, we found the ice cream melting in a bag & passed it out, sang, & opened presents. A person did come in, clean around us, & say that they needed the room for the next party.

Next, the games wouldn’t accept several of the cards good for 30 free min. of play. I had no luck trying to find a manager. In fact, there wasn’t a single person over 18 anywhere to be found. The «kid» I spoke with kept telling me to try another game. That wasn’t the problem! An hour later, a college aged girl fixed the issue but by then the excitement had passed for the adults.

MY SUGGESTION: Skip the expensive Putt Putt Party & just take the kids to play LaserTron. Better bang for your b

My favorite driving range in Memphis! I don’t make it out to hit golf balls as much as I used to, but this place gets my full stamp of approval. They also have pros you can hire to help you with your swing.
And if you want to practice your putting, check out their putt-​putt course! Fun for the whole family! Although… we went on their hardest course and I don’t remember them all being par 2… and considering my dad still holds some state records in golf, he must have been putting me on to make me feel better when he was shooting 6’s and 7’s like I was… it is funny what you remember from childhood.
The courses are the same but they have added more games in the arcade (while keeping the oldies but goodies). And there are bumper cars and batting cages! Plus hot dogs, cotton candy, and all the «bad food» that is just so good. Fun for the whole family :)
Minus one star for the uninterested teenage employees. Don’t get me wrong, it is fine that they are teenagers… they just need to be more helpful and work a bit harder and not be so uninterested. They remind me of every stereotypical movie where the teenagers slack while working at the fair, movie theatre, etc. and are completely focused on flirting.

I LOVE mini golf. I am also a self-​proclaimed butt-​kicker at it. At this spot, I WISH they would charm up the courses. They have the space to make one KILLER course with all the bells and whistles.
I really do dig the games inside and really great people watching… ya know! Good date spot. Fellas, do the following to have a knock-​out time.
First: Early dinner (6:30) at Hog and Hominy, Interim, or Sweet Grass for savory.
Second: This spot, and don’t be cheap. Play golf, the games for sure and ALWAYS go-​karts. (LET HER BEAT YOU at something!)
Third: A scoop of cream or other sweetbite at La Michoacana.
Fourth: This is only a mere suggestion for those of us who love a good marathon date. A white Bordeaux wine with some cranberry Stilton at a CLEAN HOUSE. And… boom goes the dynamite.

We just had our kids birthdays parties here this past weekend and the service was amazing! The girls just never left my side to see if we needed anything, they were good with the kids and guests, the pizzas we had for the party were tasty (better than other party places for sure), and the games were just right for a 9 yo and a 4yo and their friends.
The only bad thing I have to say about the place is that the restrooms smelled pretty bad and were not well cleaned.
We chose a sunday for being one of the least busiest days of the week during the summer and it was very comfortable for the kids to be playing around all as a group.
We rented the lasertron for the 9 year old and his friends and they had a blast. Meanwhile the little 4yo played downstairs at the arcade room.
All in all it was a good party and a nice experience for the kids to be able to play together and enjoy a good part of the day.

One of the many places my family and I came to for vacation mini golf. It was quite wet outside, and the courses (they have easy, medium, and «hard») were somewhat sloshed, but we still managed to have a good time.
When I say easy, medium, and hard, I mean that the courses seem to be all relatively the same with some additional but not too difficult obstacles on the greens. We went inside and paid, and then came out to get our clubs where I saw a sign saying that law enforcement is free. I went back in and explained this, and then I got a refund for the whole family! I inquired about this, and they said it was correct. What a nice place showing some love for the law enforcement community!
Inside they have a bunch of video games, and they also have a go-​kart track. This was closed due to the rain.
What is really neat, though, is that they have above the video games a ropes course! So while harnessed in, for $ 10 for 10 minutes, you can be your own little monkey traversing about 6 styles of bridges about 12′ in the air! The people playing below can look up and see you. My son got through everything, my daughter got one and done. I’ve never seen anything like this in a facility before.
They also have a driving range, pro instruction, and water bumper boats.
Mini golf signs said they have weekly competitions.
Teen staff was very friendly and courteous… especially when I had to get my refund.

Saturday specials are a great deal… but go early! It’s packed by 12:30!

Let me begin by saying I HATE the new card/​point system that has replaced tokens… it makes me feel like they are attempting to «trick» you about how much games really cost to play… therefore, if I just want to take my kids somewhere to play games, Chuck E. Cheese is a better option, where everything is a quarter… that being said… Putt Putt is a FANTASTIC place for a kid’s birthday party… more specifically a LASERTRON party… we had our daughters 8^th party there and it was SO FUN, even for adults… it was a week night, the place was not that busy… we got lasertron, pizza, putt putt if you wanted to play, but the best of all… all kids get a card with 30 minutes of «free play» on it where they can play whatever games they want… it was the icing on the cake after a fun laser tag session. My daughter also got to do the sky ropes course and our family received a free «Super Saturday» pass as well as 3 free laser tag passes to use in the future. Our party hostesses were very sweet and helpful. All her friends who attended were begging their parents to have their next birthday party there, it was that good. It really was perfect… my only gripe would be that the «party room» was cramped and hot… other than that… it was AWESOME!

«Fun for the Whole Family» pretty much sums it up. There’s a driving range, mini golf, go-​karts, bumper boats, etc. etc. Something for everyone. On Saturdays they have an early morning «Super Saturday» special (per person):
8 a.m. — 1 p.m. Only $ 7.50!
Unlimited Putt Putt
$ 8.00 in gameroom value
Popcorn & small coke
Two outside activities (outside attractions open at 10 am)
Pretty hard to beat!

They have dated (but charming) animals placed around the golf courses. No one watches you (for the most part), so you’re basically free to play multiple courses, like sneaking into movies.
The arcade was pretty cool. Quarters are out, and rechargeable money cards are in — that’s new to me, and I’m not that old!
Skee ball is always a classic.
I introduced my companion (and rekindled a nostalgic affection) for Time Crisis 3 (and 2). I didn’t want to pay for Time Crisis 4.

Let us put the kids aside for a second. Of course this place is perfect for them. What about us adults who like to play games and partake in activities that may or may not seem a little, dare I say it, childish? This place is perfect for you too, and if you feel a little foolish coming here on a date or with your grown up, adult friends, borrow someone else’s kids and use them as an excuse.
My husband and I have taken a few date-​nights here. It’s super fun and fills the need for the child that lives inside you. Perhaps ours are still a tad bit more prevalent than others our age– but I could give a hoot. I have fun here, and I am not the least bit ashamed to admit it.
It’s relatively cheap and so much fun. They also offer bumper cars, an arcade, and putt-​putt golf.

A fun place to bring the family or even for a date night. There’s lots to do here– play putt, huge indoor game room, bumper cars, go carts, batting cages and a golfing range. Tere is even virtual golfing and a golf pro on site. The golfing range is very popular and there is always a lot of activity in this area.
It’s a good place for birthday parties and group events. They have a large pavilion area that can be rented for corporate events and family reunions.
It’s been in the area since I was a kid and it is a little bit older but not run down, just don’t expect shiny and new. You will be entertained and your kids will have lots of fun too!

This is a great place to take anyone who enjoys putt-​putt golf. It’s not remotely rundown, everything is in great condition.
It’s really perfect for kids, as it has a huge go-​cart track, bumper boating, batting cages, and a very nice putt-​putt golf course. It’s easy to spend the day there — they play top 40 music, and you can get refreshments and food.

Had some free time and two wee little girls in tow for «guys» afternoon. Go karting and batting cages sounded like a great plan to work up an appetite. Go karts were $ 7 for one round and $ 12 for two, with choice of Super-​track (I highly recommend) or kiddie track which is best for the little ones. The park also offers karts with two seats, $ 16 for one ride and $ 19 for two. Get to the head of the line to score the fastest karts. Some are really fast and some should be retired. They say no bumping but locals often bump without provocation! I wish the young karting staff would say something; oh well. Each round lasts pretty long, almost ten minutes plus. Also enjoyed the batting cages, cost was a dollar a round. This one attraction can be purchased inside the main area or out at a vending machine. Most other attractions must be purchased inside the main area and arcade. Plastic swipe cards are used for rides and more. The park also includes bumper boats, putt putt golf, a driving range, inside arcade and a new ball shooting feature being built at present. And there’s still more to the park. Pricing is standard for Tennessee, but for a Chicago guy visiting, these are great rates !!

This joint has:
mini-​golf
driving ranges
batting cages
go-​karts
lasertron
arcade games
… and much more
It’s a great place for the kids, though I wish they had a slightly better arcade selection.
