Jungle Jim’s Playland

This place is a rip off. 1.00 for every game. The excuse was they remodeled so they have to make up the price.

Rides are classics, but the new games are way overpriced. Cost a nickel elsewhere, one dollar here. Unused capital just sitting there losing profits.

This place gets better every time we go here. It seems brighter & not dingy like it used seem. There are a lot of cool new games in the middle. They have a super neato holographic game that projects on the floor. It automatically rotates between several games & is free to play. They still have their trusty old bounce houses, carousel, swings, bumper cars, & about 3 or 4 other rides. They now have a nice little area for toddlers in the corner. The snack bar offers better selections than it previously had. The employees are friendly & good with the kids. In conclusion… a pretty cheap way to entertain my little for the afternoon.

This place has been around since I was a kid. So it’s clear that some updating needs to be done. That aside my 3 year old niece loves this place. It is an inexpensive way for her to have some fun. The rides make some crazy noises (probably due to age) but the staff makes sure everyone is safe.
I definitely will bring her back as she loves this place.

We had our 3 year olds birthday party here last Sunday and it went great! The place was clean, the employees were very nice to the kids and the place seemed well maintained.
Our party host Audrey was running her tail off but had a great attitude and smiled the entire time. All the employees we encountered really seemed to take a lot of pride in the job they were doing and making sure our little guy had a great party.
The games were fun for the older kids, the rides were a hit with the younger. They also loved the bounce houses.
We had pizza and fruit with our party and found the pizza to be surprisingly good!
Two moms from our group asked for party pricing prior to leaving — they were so impressed. I have a feeling we’ll be invited to a couple of Jungle Jim parties in the near future, and we look forward to it!

We started coming here about a year ago when my son was 3, it was cheap and kept him entertained for a couple hours. I really thought they wouldn’t be open much longer, the rides are old, the arcade games were terrible.
Well over the last couple months they’ve have made many, many changes for the better. They have all new arcade games, the rides are the same, but they work for the youngins, I was just informed that they will be updating the bumper cars next. The food isn’t terrible if you end up needing to eat and they now have three bounce houses as well as a baby section for those with small children. My only complaint is that the arcade games cost way to much. Some as much as $ 3 for one try!

Clean place and helpful staff. Great place for kids birthday. Instead of paying for the party plan we paid for each kid abd it worked it as a better price. Kids loved it.
We can from 10-​noon and we basically had it all to ourselves.

My kids (ages 8,6) liked this place for the most part.
However, they almost immediately got off the bounce house. One of their friends even said they (bounce house) were stupid ((7).
The carousel was rickety. Idk if it was the time we went but they only had 2 employees running the 6 or so rides.
Took my kids to the bathroom and though I can’t be certain I am pretty sure what I saw on the front of one of the toilet seats was blood. Covered most of the front part.
5.00 overall is a good prices if your kids are willing to ride the few rides several times.

I’m giving this a 5 star because even though currently I’d say it’s only about 4 due to a lot of out of order games, those are all being replaced with some pretty awesome games come the end of August according to their Facebook page. My son had his birthday party right before the new owners took over and it’s was good but not great. My daughter had hers there last month and it was incredible! The package prices may seem a little high but very comparable to other party places that don’t even do this much. My daughters cake was included in the package and it was so professionally done that a cake like that would probably cost 100 dollars on its own. She got a cute theme for the table settings to go with her cake and got to break open a cute Disney castle themed piñata. The party was so much more relaxed compared to my sons where they rushed us away from our table after the 2 hours were up, but this time they let us stay there the whole time. The party host was extremely attentive and the place is really cleaning up nice! A for effort with the new owners! We’ll be back in October for my sons party!

The new owners have made so many great improvements! It is cleaner and the new paint/​atmosphere is soo much better! My girls love to ride the rides and it is perfect family fun activity to beat the heat or escape the snow/​rain.

Ok so I have been here on and off for awhile. But I have to say Its so much better! There is a NEW OWNER! And he has painted, cleaned the carpets, put in some bouce houses, and is makeing a toddler area. The food is better and they even serve coffee now. The price has gone up but its still a goid deal. The owner has been there every time I have gone. And it no longer smells like pee, and grandmas house. Plus they are taking care of the rides, so its alittle quieter. If yoy havent been I would go. The negitive well the bathrooms still need some work. But much cleaner. So I will go back

We had our son’s 6^th birthday party at Jungle Jim’s on a Sunday and had a good experience. We were a bit worried based on some of the online reviews, but we also saw that it had new ownership. (Also, I’d been there a couple of years before for another birthday party. It was dark and dingy then, but the kids had enjoyed it).
When we walked in last weekend, I could see that a lot of work had been done cleaning up the place. It was much cleaner and better lit than the last time we were there. They’d set out a very nice table, decorated with a Minecraft theme as requested. And we had a party host to help coordinate things, bring out snacks and drinks, and just make sure everything was running smoothly. She did a great job. We also enjoyed the pizza, it tastes like it comes from an actual oven, and is better than Chuck-​E-​Cheese. (It’s not gourmet pizza or anything, but it’s good).
Some of the negative things that are in the recent reviews are still true, the games are old, many of them don’t work, and there is still the odd mix of games that require tokens and games that require quarters. But the rides are fun, there were plenty of attendants, and the kids had a blast. It’s obvious that the new owners are working hard to improve Jungle Jim’s. Our family will be back.

Cost: $ 10 + an additional $ 5 for tokens.
Parking: Easy
Several rides. I thought that it was totally fine for what it is. Toddler enjoyed himself, ok way to kill some time playing.
Only improvement: some games that you pay for don’t work. It takes a coin but doesn’t do anything. That happened a few times and I wasn’t interested in bothering staff each time. I did ask for reimbursement once and the manager questioned me which game, which side, etc… I thought it was silly to do that and not very customer service friendly. It’s not like i’m interested in stealing $ 0.25, too much effort. My advice: just believe your customers and offer them the silly $ 0.25 with a pleasant attitude. Remember they spent way more coming here for just an hour or two.

Went in for my first time tonight for a birthday party. The concept of the place is great but its in MAJOR need of some work. I would guess at least half of the games didn’t work and had out of order signs on them. They give you tokens for the birthday party, but then have a whole bunch of games that won’t take them and you need quarters for. As others have said, the employees are less than thrilled to be there and there aren’t enough of them to run all the rides so its hit and miss what you can get on at any given time. As for the rides themselves, they seemed in pretty bad shape but mostly worked with the exception of the bumper cars. I think they had 3 out of 7 that actually operated and the others were all parked off on the side. I probably wouldn’t go back to this place, however I noticed that the new owner replied to a review below saying he is in the process of fixing the place up. Might check it out again in a few months and see if its gotten any better,

I think that only 2 out of 3 machines stole our money! Staff was either overly friendly or not at all. Rides were a little rickety, but they worked. ½ of the building was just empty picnic tables… probably should fill that with new stuff?

Probably not going back here. It is really run down, and dirty. The employees were pretty scarce. They could only operate one or 2 rides at a time, so you had to hawk them to see where they would go next.

This place is great to take the kids. If you purchase a pass its well worth the money. I like that the rides are clean. Yes they are old but they work and the kids love the super load merry go round. The worst part is the pizza i would say save your money its frozen pizza.
01−23−15 Jungle Jims has recently been bought out. They now have a million cheap toy machines and inflatables. Plus they raised the price! Probably won’t be going there as much anymore.

I took my 3.5 yo here. It smells very old and kind of like mildew. The place was dirty and just looks in need of a major remodel. Thankfully we ate dinner before we played. The conditions of the main area left me wondering about the conditions behind the scenes. It was our first and our last visit. Not worth it. Spend a little more money and go to Chuck E. Cheese, Boondocks, or Planet Play. Seriously.

My son loves this place. One thing I can tell you is brace yourself for the crowd if you come on a Saturday! It’s full of birthday parties, especially in the fall/​winter. I had my son’s birthday gathering here and we spent $ 70 in food only for 3 pizzas and 2 pitchers of drinks. We didn’t make a reservations ($ 25) but were lucky to find a table to use. You may bring your own stuff but are only allowed to bring cake/​cupcakes to eat — no other food besides that! The kids loved it though, there are tons of rides and a merry-​go-​round… I definitely like this better than Chuck E Cheese! At least the pizza here is actually good and worth for having «guests» to invite to your party!

I don’t know what to say… this is one of those places that my kids like and I don’t. We did a birthday party here once for a 2 year old, and with that age group it was great. It’s basically an indoor amusement park, with scaled down versions of Lagoon rides like the swings and merry-​go-​round and music express. The rides are small, there are less staff running rides than there are rides. But it works because this places never draws a huge crowd. The workers are all teenagers who seem to hate their jobs. But again, the kids dig it.
I’ve heard that the pizza is no good, so don’t bother.
