Menlo Aquatics Center — Restaurant in Perkasie

When I first moved to Perkasie. I loved this pool and quite frankly think it's one of the best pools in the area. But there are pros and cons to every place.

Positives: it's clean, the facility is beautiful and offers many things for kids to do. They allow you to bring your own food in and offer amazing packages for birthday parties.

Cons: it's always over crowded. People just drop their kids off or are too busy on their phones to watch their kids. (The pool does have a policy that kids 16 and under have to have an adult accompanying them, but I don't believe it is strictly enforced). It closes for swim meets throughout the week so unless you know the schedule well, be prepared to encounter a closed pool.

Suggestions: Have a members only day once a week or members only evening. People spend good money for season passes at the facility and would like to utilize it when it is not overcrowded with day pass people. We get passes every year and only used them twice because of the overcrowding.

Expand the parking if possible. You need adequate parking for the amount of people you let in the pool.

Limit the amount of guest passes per member and possibly the amount of day passes so the place doesn't get...

I like the pool itself. Very one of a kind public pool!! But, What about those people (including myself) that don't have that kind of money. In all honesty I've been discouraged to even think about going because the price is outrageous!! Otherwise exciting for a family to enjoy. And the kid oriented part is great. If they lowered the price of admission for adults and children even $3 dollars less so Adults would pay $12 and children would pay $7 I'd be more likely to go and or recommend this pool. For my family for one day would cost us $40 dollars. That ain't right and we frankly don't want to go to Holiday house pool as an alternative. I tell people straight up how much it costs cause why waste their time going there and then turning around leaving disappointed because the pricing is absurd. If anything at all going after 4pm when the price drops a bit having 4 hours to savor for a long time is alright I suppose. Cause I sure couldn't afford paying that price but once doubtfully twice all summer. For those who have that kind of money, smile and Enjoy!! That's what its there for to enjoy. I wish they would reconsider a more people...

My son was over the moon happy about the place. I fell in love with the pictures of all the things I knew he would live including the slide. When we got there I was told he has to take a swimming test. Ok no problem, we would have to wait until 5:00 to take the test. He waited all day and when it was 5:00 we went down to the 1st pool thinking it would be swimming test more for children. Absolutely not, not for an 8 year old. Mind you the slide is in a 3.6 foot pool pretty easy. The test was in a 6ft to 4ft they have to do a lap and back and tred in 6ft for 1 min. Both test you can't break or you fail and have to do it again. My son's heart was completely crushed and all he wanted to do is try the slide that WE all know he is able to do with no issues. I know it's all teens working there but there was no care at all as these children didn't meet their hard-core test. Really...
