Imagination Zone — Local services in Chestnuthill Township

I took my daughter(5 and with autism) here today because it was raining out and new to pa still, it was nice that it’s free play for the kids, but due to Covid the main attraction (for my daughter anyway ) was closed due to Covid which was the huge ball pit and the mini ball pit which also means the main and only slide that connects to it too. The bounce house got all the glory since the balls were a no go! She went in and out over 5 times in sessions from playing arcade games, air hockey, collecting tickets as we went along, games don’t cost more than 4 tokens, a lot were only 2 or 1 which was nice, even the air hockey. The bowling, and a few other machines were very much broken and abused. The floor was super gross and stained but hey it’s a kid place that’s not new, so if you don’t go in thinking it’s par with other kid indoor playrooms you’ll love it(plus hello it’s free entry to burn off them endless kid batteries they have ) We had a blast, they even have a lil 3$ pictures drawing, super fun and cute. They have an atm, but be warned and bring cash for tokens. Only bought 20$ in tokens and we played everything several times. Didn’t have the pizza, but maybe next time I’ll give it a go. Overall 4 stars cuz my daughter was worn out, got her lil tickets cashed in for a cup lol (her choice) , the prizes were way over priced and bad selection(dollar tree got better quality), so just aim to have fun playing and collecting, but if you don’t have more than 300 tickets you won’t be getting much at all (we had 333). Cup was 300. Got two lil army men and that’s a wrap for our mini new adventure to imagination zone. I say under 6 years old- well worth the visit. One thing I did not like very much was zero sanitizer in any dispensers and just wish it was a bit cleaner, but for this age group no complaints past that. We practically had the whole place to ourselves on a Sunday...

The BBQ chicken pizza was excellent. The workers were all very nice and very attentive. I was nervous to come here because of some of the reviews but I'm glad I went with my toddler. I think maybe some people have a different expectation for what this place is. If you're looking for a newly renovated and up to date indoor playground, there are places like that around but you pay to get in. This is more like a pizza shop that offers free bounce houses and a decent ballpit and climbing zone, with a decent variety of older arcade games. You are under no obligation to spend any money here. While they do ban outside food and drink and I personally drink a ton of water so that was a bummer leaving my big water jug in the car, I totally understand that decision. And there are free refills at the soda fountain so that's reasonable. I really found the food prices and arcade games reasonable. I really am grateful this place exists. I feel like if the owners poured the money it would take to renovate, they would need to jack prices up high. Big chains are shutting down because they can't survive this economy, so here's to hoping this little business...

Owner is extremely rude. My husband and I spend no exaggeration hundreds of dollars here weekly between pizza for our kids and the games. We are here every single Thursday. Since my child was recently diagnosed with a few different allergies I wanted to minimize our risk of dealing with those issues and I packed them ONE peanut butter and jelly sandwich to share and a cup of watermelon... Not to mention the only food they offer here is pizza which is extremely limiting to people with gluten and dairy allergies. At this point we already spent well over $75 dollars on coins alone for the games. The owner approached my children first, then I asked her if there was an issue and she very rudely told me I need to get my things out of here and that “I would never bring food into Taco Bell.” I always bring my own water when I am here because half the time I come they don’t have water stocked and when I ask they say they don’t have any. Besides the amount of money I spent here on my own, I also bring with me about 6-7 other moms from our homeschool groups on the weekends. I will be sure they know how we where treated so that they don’t...
