Pro Tips
- 1.Visit on Sunday afternoons (1:00-5:00 PM) for the earliest opening with fewer crowds and a more family-friendly atmosphere before evening crowds arrive
- 2.Let kids wear white or neon clothing to make them glow under the black lights,it adds to the fun and makes for great photos
- 3.Arrive during the 1:00 PM weekend opening for the best experience with kids, as the venue transitions to more of a bar/lounge atmosphere later in the evening
- 4.The arcade uses a card system, so load up at the beginning and set limits with kids to avoid constant requests for more credits
- 5.Keep younger children close on the golf course as the black light environment can be disorienting and harder to supervise
Best Time to Visit
Saturday or Sunday between 1:00-4:00 PM is ideal for families. You'll catch the daytime opening when the venue is most kid-focused, avoid late-night bar crowds, and have plenty of time to enjoy both mini golf and arcade games before it gets busy.
What to Know
As a venue that doubles as a bar and lounge, this location becomes more adult-oriented in the evening hours, so plan accordingly with younger children. The venue is located in a shopping center with ample parking, and while there's a bar on-site, families typically focus on the mini golf and arcade areas.
Seasonal Notes
This indoor venue is perfect year-round, especially during San Antonio's scorching summer months when outdoor activities are less comfortable. The black light environment makes it an excellent rainy day option as well.
Nearby Eats
The venue is located near several family restaurants including Chick-fil-A and Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers (both within the same shopping area), making it easy to grab dinner before or after your cosmic adventure.
