One of the best places I’ve ever been to, the map is unique and a lot of fun. Have brought multiple people here for a first-time paintball experience, they’ve all loved it and have gone back again. The staff is great and the manager is very nice, always making sure you’re having a good time. Highly recommend to anyone!”

Went there with my 15-year-old brother for the first time and it was extremely fun. Good place for first-timers. Make sure to wear clothing that you don’t mind getting paint on. I also recommend going with friends or family. This is a great group activity.

Went to Area 53 for the first time. Finally a place within the city limits to play paintball! Had a ton of fun and the best part about it is they are open till late, therefore the fun is not cut short when the sun goes down. Will definitely be coming back!

Instead of a company Christmas party we went to Area 53… and played Paint Ball. We had an awesome time. The staff was great setting us up with gear. The guys can’t wait to go back.

We came to celebrate a Bachelor/Bachelorette day out. All of us had a blast. The lounge is great, you get to play other games while waiting for your turn. The staff were friendly and great too. The bathroom was really clean and they have a drinking fountain and vending machines if you get thirsty. I love the place and would definitely come back for another laser tag date

Area 53 was FIRE. I took my children for my son’s 10 year old birthday celebration and we had a great time! The lounge area is nice with basketball and other games and the laser tag area is exciting and also a great workout. Great for all ages, just be ready to shoot and run! Excellent experience We will be back!

I’m surprised there are laser tag spots that have guns that look so real! The games are pretty awesome. Our group was split into two teams. To win, the determining factor was number of kills! We played two rounds, then a game that was like each one for themselves. If you died, you would reload at your home base by tapping to the top of your gun to the lamp (RFID technology I suppose)!

We celebrated my daughter’s ninth birthday at Area 53 and had a great time. The adults were not planning on playing but the space was so cool we decided to join in the fun. It’s a great space for parties and events, for adults and kids… The staff is friendly, and overall this is a great addition to the neighborhood!
Lauren S.
Definitely recommend this place. Went here with 20 people and had a blast. This laser tag is much better than any other place.

Wow, what an experience! Went out with a bunch of friends, what a great atmosphere and the friendliest staff ever! Definitely on my list to go again.

I went for my birthday and it was AMAZING! I had to adjust my party size the day of and they change it without a problem. The staff was very friendly. The equipment was great. The music was perfect. The game area is huge and there are a lot of places to hide. There are games to play while you wait for your game to start and there’s a lot of seating space. It’s perfect for birthdays or just to go out and have fun. I definitely want to go back!

First time there with a large group (12+) of early to mid-twenties. Overall experience was a ton of fun and highly recommend without qualifications, especially if they haven’t played in a while….

I had so much FUN here!! I went with a group of 8 to celebrate a good friend birthday on a Thursday night. The host was super nice and super friendly. She made us feel very welcome, explained the rules pretty clear and even took a picture for their Instagram…
