Jungle Adventure and was left quite disappointed by several aspects of the experience.
To begin with, I was surprised to see an 18% gratuity added before the party had even started. Gratuity is typically based on the quality of service received, so being charged upfrontâwithout knowing what kind of service weâd be gettingâfelt presumptuous and unfair.
Upon arrival, I noticed the party setup was not up to standard. The tablecloth and backdrop were extremely wrinkled and appeared to be reused, which gave a careless and unprofessional impressionâespecially for a special occasion like a childâs birthday.
Finally, the strict two-hour time limit left no room for flexibility. Once the event ended, guests were rushed out, and even the birthday child wasnât allowed to enjoy any free play without being charged full price. I understand policies, but some courtesy or flexibilityâespecially for the child whose party it isâwould have gone a long way in improving our experience.
Unfortunately, based on this experience, I wouldnât recommend Jungle Adventure for hosting birthday parties
REPLY TO OWNERS RESPONSE!!
Vacuuming, wiping down dirty tables, and general upkeep are part of the package WE PAID FOR.
Additionally, the tablecloth provided was very wrinkled and did not look presentable. I was told âsorry weâre working with what we haveâ Iâm happy to send over a clearer photo. The âHappy Birthdayâ sign was misspelled, which was disappointing and reflected a lack of attention to detail. I can provide a photo of that as well.
No one from your staff took any photos during the party. Your team simply called the kids to the table, and we took all the photos ourselves.
As for the 15 âextraâ minutes we were supposedly given, that time was spent discussing the open play issue with you and your staff. It was time taken up by trying to get clarification and advocate for a small courtesy that we feel should have been extended, especially since there was no party scheduled after ours. Also, to be clear, the 10% discount was not something you offered, we asked for it being that we just finished a party and kids wanted to continue playing. That was when your staff said âWe are going to give you 10% off for our lack of communicationâ
Lastly, considering there was no party scheduled after ours, it would have been a gesture to allow the birthday child some complimentary open play time. Small acts like that make a big difference.
Overall, we were disappointed in how things were handled. Iâm sharing this feedback in hopes that it will be taken seriously and used to improve future customer experiences. People are choosing your business for meaningful moments in their lives â kindness, attention to detail, and accountability should...

   Read moreItâs a long one so sorry in advanceâŠ.I was at this location with my 21 month old and my 5 year old. Our day was going beautifully until a disgruntled parent came in. I commend the business owner for his handling of the situation that unfolded between himself and a very aggressive and verbally abusive male customer.
All customers are REQUIRED TO WEAR A MASK while playing. This is stated CLEARLY at several points of entry (including the website, front door, front desk and many other locations.) This man did not want his kids wearing a mask when everyone else clearly was. Including my 21 month old. He was asked nicely by the owner to mask up or they would not be able to play. This resulted in a flurry of extremely foul language and aggressive behavior. Lots of f words and hand gestures if you know what I mean.. He made the entire play space extremely uncomfortable. This man was so out of hand that myself and another parent felt the need to speak up. The owner refunded the customer and asked him to leave or he would all the police. The customer continued to throw foul language at myself as well as the owner before eventually gathering his poor children and leaving.
After we all came down from that unexpected adrenaline rush, the owner expressed to the parents that his priority is the safety of his patrons. He also gave my kids a couple of juice boxes for free to make them feel better. Itâs clear to me that the folks at Jungle Adventure are doing their best to keep the community and our kiddos safe in these crazy times. Not just from the threat of coronavirus but also from potentially dangerous people. We all know wearing a mask is no fun. Iâm just glad that there is a space my children can go where the rules are followed and the environment is...
