Rating: 5

They did an incredible job hosting my son s birthday party! The kids had a blast and the adults were able to relax as they took care of everything from beginning to end. The venue is clean, spacious, and well equipped with the latest nerf guns. Brandon and his wife were very friendly, helpful, and patient with all of us.

The dude was getting kicked out of the building, no power, no notice for the party person, he made the kids play in an alley, he started a gas generator inside, it was dirty and gross, the owner was obviously high, said he hadnt sleeps in 4 days. Very creepy and weird.

This place is amazing! My son had a birthday and lemme tell you, it was THE formula that would blow a kids mind. They all had fun. The parents had fun. It was a truly excellent birthday. The theme, the dude running the show, the blasters, the arena- it s the whole package! This is not a riff on the other Nerf places- this place is ORIGINAL!

Excellent experience with Brandon and his crew. First time doing something like this, we were treated like family and given admirable hospitality! Collection of inventory and activities are nothing short of impressive! Thank you Barricade family, well see you next time!

This is an amazing place. Perfect for kids birthday parties. The place is family owned and operated. It is all about family and fun. Brandon runs a GREAT operation. The kids had tons of fun, it was a safe and extremely fun place. My son and all of his friends had non-stop fun. They started the Nerf action right on schedule and never stopped. The kids kept sharing stories of the activities.

I will start off by saying, the kids did enjoy the party so much BUT the communication from the staff was absolutely insanely unprofessional. I get with the holidays it made things difficult but I reached out to them in so many different ways in the days leading up to the party because I had questions and got no response what so ever. The morning of the party my husband had to drive out there an hour before the party just to make sure that things were still a go because I had not heard anything and started to become under the impression that the party would need to be canceled. Unfortunately we missed out on 4 friends being able to come celebrate due to the poor communication. Great venue. Love the idea of the place but the customer service skills are very lacking. A mother should not be added that type of stress over what s supposed to be a stress free party to begin with ESPECIALLY when paying $514 (definitely was not worth that price tag either)

We had our sons birthday party at the Barricade and had never been here before. It was amazing! They are family owned and operated and you can feel that for sure. Brandon and his wife and brother took care of us from start to finish and we never felt rushed. Everyone got to pick out their own guns and practice shooting and learning how to use them first. Then we were treated to a series of fun games for just our group...so we werent crammed into a big arena with people we didnt know. Our son was so incredibly excited and felt so very special! Thank you guys so very much and we cant wait to come back soon!

I liked this place a lot we went for a birthday party and had a lot of fun. The only reason I didnt give it 5 stars is because the parent viewing area could be better it was in another party room so we couldnt stay in there and watch because another party came in that room

I want to tell you that if your kid is between 5-10 years old, you are going to be hard pressed to find a better birthday party spot than the Barricade. I mean we had 20 some kids for my boys 7th birthday, and they went absolutely nuts and had a great time. Staff is friendly and helpful, even cool in an 80s hard rock Cobra Kai kind of vibe. Highly recommend!

Super dope! My son wanted a nerf party and they delivered! Owners are very patient with the kids and explain each guns functions, they have a testing room to try the guns out, great customer service. Several different game objectives so it doesn t get boring and the DJ was great! Plus a special gun for the birthday boy to use at the end! Will definitely go again and again!!!

We had a birthday party for my son. The kids and adults had such a great time. The hostess Brandan was awesome and very knowledgeable. He gave us details about the nerf guns and the ones he recommend. Most of all he put his trust into people meaning he doesnt allow you to pay until after the party is over which i think is the best part. He cares and wants you to enjoy first. We will be back. 5 stars

Had my sons 6th birthday party here and it was a hit for not only the kids but the adults! The owners couldnt be nicer or more welcoming. They were great with the kids and go over the top to make sure you get a great experience from the beginning to the end. They had the party room decorated so one less thing to worry about. Lots of awesome and unique guns to choose from. Definitely recommend!!

First off, we came from out of state and received what I would call VIP treatment. The location was super clean, organized and very, VERY! well laid out for our party. They provided a very nice pre-staged party room, decor and had Disney+ showing. Their weapon selection has to be the best collection of nerf weaponry in the state. This family owned business takes pride in their attention to detail and customer service. The only downside to any of it is the morning after. The level of SORENESS is thigh numbing, I swear I cursed the Nerf gods more than once. But the countless amounts of OMG this place is amazing was all worth it. As a parent I did not expect to have as much fun as I did but I had an absolute blast. Hell my kids are still asleep! By far money very very well spent and we will be returning next year for another round.

The Barricade was absolutely perfect for my 10 year old son s birthday party. The facility is very clean and there is a wonderful selection of nerf guns. One of the owners runs the party and keeps it moving and fun the whole time. All in all, a much nicer party experience than many kids places that are similar. Highly recommend.

We just celebrated my sons 12th birthday here all of the kids had a blast. The owners were very freindly and attentive. Our party room was set up when we arrived and we had the arena space to ourselves during the party. The party room had a viewing are of the arena, so the adults could watch all of the action. The host had a series of games, so the kids did not get bored. They were sanitizing the guns before they would be put up for use again. I would highly reccomend this for anyone, of any age, that loves a nerf gun war!

My son celebrated his 11th birthday at The Barricade and we had a blast! Every aspect of this party was an excellent experience. The staff was great with the kids and the MC for the games and party kept it fun and well paced the entre time. The staff was also very accommodating of the parents. They did a great job with the party room, helped us with clean up and decorate, and were generally friendly and helpful. In the run up to the party the staff promptly answered emails and returned calls, answering all of our questions. When we arrived, everything was as we expected it and we were able to jump right in an play. Most B-day parties are fun for the kids while the parents stand around, but this party was also a great time for the parents who all jumped in and played. The pricing is extremely reasonable, and Brandon worked with us to make sure that we got the best possible package and deal for our group, which ended up being quite a bit larger than we anticipated. Even with the large turnout the price was VERY reasonable. The play area was a lot of fun with plenty of space for over 20 people to comfortably play. The area was well laid out and felt safe. The space is filled with soft inflatables, so even as people were running around, I never worried about kids (or adults) getting hurt. I would recommend The Barricade for a B-day party, or just a fun afternoon activity for a group of friends looking for something to do over the summer. The Barricade has our highest possible recommendation for a great couple of hours for family and friends.

8 of us had a great time here. The people are really laid back and treat you well. They make the battles extra entertaining :). They sanitize everything so there s no need to worry about corona. People are expected to wear masks, and that is also good. They use nerf and rival brand guns, and their selection is varied and high quality. The arena is also very good and you can make music requests.
