Malibu Jack's Lafayette Introduce

Welcome to Malibu Jack's Lafayette, located at 2415 Sagamore Pkwy S, Lafayette, IN 47905, USA. You can contact them at (765) 799-0001 or +1 765-799-0001.

Malibu Jack's Lafayette, featured in the Theme Park Directory category, offers a variety of family entertainment options, including arcade games, laser tag, go-karts, and bumper cars. However, customer reviews highlight concerns about cleanliness, maintenance, and operational issues.

Customers have noted that while the venue has the "potential for a fantastic day with friends/family," there are significant issues that detract from the overall experience. Concerns about cleanliness, particularly in the toddler and jump areas, have been raised. Customers feel that the $10 entry fee is not justified if the areas are not "properly vacuumed, dusted, and maintained."

Several customers have reported that "over half of the rides were shut down" and "over half of the games didn’t work" due to a "glitch in the system." This has led to disappointment and a sense of wasted time, especially for out-of-town visitors. Specific attractions like go-karts and bumper cars were mentioned as being unavailable.

Operational issues have also extended to other areas, such as the bar being closed and limited food/drink options. Additionally, there have been problems with ticket redemption, with customers reporting that the system showed they had no tickets despite playing games.

Laser tag is generally well-received, but customers have reported long wait times, even when the venue is not crowded. This indicates potential inefficiencies in scheduling and staffing.

On a positive note, management has shown a willingness to address customer concerns and reconcile negative experiences. However, customers expect "everything to be up & running correctly" for the price they pay.

Key features and services include:

  • Arcade games.
  • Laser tag.
  • Go-karts.
  • Bumper cars.
  • Food and drink options.

Areas of concern noted by customers:

  • Cleanliness, particularly in toddler and jump areas.
  • Malfunctioning rides and games.
  • Operational issues with ticket redemption.
  • Long wait times for laser tag.
  • Limited food and drink options.

Malibu Jack's Lafayette offers a range of family entertainment options, but potential visitors should be aware of the reported issues with cleanliness and functionality. While management has shown a willingness to address concerns, improvements are needed to ensure a consistently positive experience.

Customer Reviews

I used to really enjoy bringing my kids here, but lately, it seems like the toddler and jump areas aren’t being thoroughly cleaned. Since small children play there, the equipment should be regularly sanitized. There’s a $10 fee to enter, which would feel more worthwhile if the area were properly vacuumed, dusted, and maintained. I hope management considers hiring night staff for cleaning. Also, several of the games are out of order and could use some repairs. We do like the place it just needs a little attention and care.

Before I start, I will say that the negative experience we had was reconciled with management in the right way. But I’m still going to point it out because it was our one & only experience of this place so I’m not sure if it’s the norm or not. This is a fun place and has the potential for a fantastic day with friends/family. Unfortunately, we were limited on what could be experienced because over half of the rides were shut down and over half of the games didn’t work due to a “glitch in the system” at customer service. We chose this place to come from out of town to meet friends who also traveled from out of town so we were bummed & felt our time was kind of wasted, esp for being the middle of a weekend day. We were unable to do go-karts or bumper cars because they were shut down. The bar was closed for the day and we were told we were limited on what we could get from the food/drink area. Our kids played games but when we went to redeem our tickets, the system said we didn’t have any. Again, very sad kiddos for a fun day at the arcade. We all had a blast during laser tag but we were told we had to wait 30min before we could play? It made no sense since there were only a handful of people in the whole place while we were there and no one went in or out of the laser complex while we waited. Overall, we’d try it again but for what you pay, I expect everything to be up & running correctly.

The Malibu Jack Lafayette team was absolutely incredible. They helped every step of the way making my son’s birthday the best experience possible. We can’t wait to make a tradition of this! Thank you MJ team we appreciate you!!

Family members from different parts of Indiana came to have a Christmas party event. It was a hit for all ages! The Holiday package with meal and 4 hours of unlimited play time was perfect for our group.

My boys just had the best night of their lives—core memories were made for sure!!! This place has every fun thing you could ever want to do as a family! It is truly awesome!!! The palm trees and waterfall are a whole vibe, too. We had a small issue, and Nequila (and her manager that was working, but I didn’t catch her name) went above and beyond to fix the issue. She made our night, and she and her manager just ensured our future business.
