Funderdome Indoor Playground and Cafe

Reviews & Tips

  I have a two year old who loves to play. Being a rainy day, we decided to go to Funderdome due to the good reviews. Let me tell you that my son had a blast, it is by far the most organize indoor play ground we have been to. Our main concern is our child safety and here we did not see too many kids running around like wild animals. The staff seemed to be in control at all times and they were friendly. They have a spot for toddlers and other areas for the older ones, but I could not keep my child for too long in the toddler zone since he wanted to explore; he was able to play every where else under my supervision, I had a blast too crawling all over the place. The food was not that good, and the kitchen seemed under staff. If you have little ones take them!!

  Love taking my 10 month old to Funderdome to work out his energy and let him crawl all over the place.  The infant play area is nice and big and it's completely separate from the area where the older kids play.  There are plenty of toys for the babies to play with, although most of the ones that are supposed to play music don't have working batteries.  That's OK though.  The entire area is padded with gym mats so I don't really have to worry at all about falls or tumbles.  
  There's a nice diaper changing room right off the infant play area.  It's a little pricey at about $11 per child, but fortunately I have a friend who is a VIP member there and she gets to bring a friend for free twice per month!  They have Mommy and Me classes but I haven't tried them.

  1st time ever there last week and WOW was it cool.  We have an 11, 8 & 1yr old.
  
  The 11 & 8 had the run of the entire place....our 11 yr old didnt want to go because "it's a place for little kids"........yeah....sure it is.  Our 8 year old kept teasing her about that ..........."why are you having so much fun....it's only for little kids!!"
  
  They were covered in sweat having a ball.  They have this fantastic high beam obstacle course thing about 14 feet up (no worries.....children are very securely tethered & the ENTIRE floor EVERYWHERE is nicely padded) that my kids went on multiple times
  
  there is a rock climbing wall too......with overly padded floors.  i'm the most paranoid person about this.  it was my 11 year old who fell from the rock climbing wall onto concrete at Marlins Stadium
  
  google "Marlins Rock Wall" if you dont believe me
  
  also....a VERY cool playground w/ a 3 story slide.  it's all very colorful, very clean & from what i saw....very well run
  
  i spoke with several of the staff, asking questions & they were all very informative
  
  there is an area w/ air powered guns (think of the mounted guns on a WW 2 bomber) that allows you to shoot very soft balls at each other......a TON of fun
  
  annnnnnnnnnnnd for our 1 year old......they didnt forget about the little ones.  there is a great area with age appropriate toys & a very padded floor that is sectioned off
  
  we even forgot socks....no worries....they sell nice socks for $2 a pair
  
  we were there for hours....our kids loved it & so did we
  
  we left after a really fun and REALLY LONG game of Simon Says.....kids laughed the whole time & the baby fell right to sleep when we left  ;-)
  
  if you have kids 12 & under who are active & physical....this is a fantastic place
  
  i also looked at the 14 filtered reviews.....12 were 5 stars, 1 is 4 stars & 1 is 1 star
  
  why does yelp filter out so many?
  
  based on our fantastic experience there......i personally dont believe either one of these 1 star reviewers

  Friendly staff, a clean facility and decent food make this one of my favorite places to take my son to play.  This is the best indoor playground I've found in South Florida and I highly recommend it especially on a rainy day.

  If i were a kid, this place would be a dream come true! Great place to let the little ones get lost in their own world!

  We brought our kids here and the play area was decent. However, when we tried to have lunch the seating area was very limited. When we tried to ask one of the staff to help we where literally yelled at. To make matters worse she was the vice president!!! I would avoid eating at this establishment at all costs!

  We had a blast at Funderdome!  I brought my two year old son,my five year old Niece and my 8 year old Nephew, all the kids had plenty to do- we were there all day. It's a special kind of place, physical, intellectual, social, And all that brought on a special kind of sleep that night.   We can't wait to go back, and have more fun in this clean, cool, weatherproof playground.
