My girls had a great time!! I have a 5 year old and a 2 year old. We were only patrons of the Matthews location before...but now we will happily revisit the Gastonia location. Very clean and friendly staff! 

Business response:

Thank you for your kind review, Ms. Liara! We hope to have you back again soon!

How sad is a business for children that doesn't accompany special needs children. Some stranger has to walk my son up the slide. We drive to Greenville SC just so our son is comfortable playing. One of the charlotte locations said they have no problem with us helping him up but the Gastonia location said sorry no exceptions. Terrible business 

Business response:

Andy- We were disappointed that your first visit what not what you had anticipated but we loved speaking with you and seeing you back in our playground to play! We look forward to seeing your wonderful family again soon!

We came here today for a birthday party. Rules are too strict for the children. Also, the wouldn't let the older kids 12 & 14 help the little kids. Have to be 18. Also, if you are 12, you have to be under 5' to play. Was not fun today at all for the kids or the parents. The hostesses tried... Was pretty much a cluster. Very unorganized. We will NOT be returning. We will stick to the MJ's in CONCORD. Gastonia was horrible. 

Business response:

Nicole- We are disappointed to see that your recent visit was not a 5-star experience. We do abide by strict age limitations for the safety of all our guests. Your comments will be shared with our staff as we hope to provide a safe, fun, and enjoyable experience for those who come to play. Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate it.

We will definitely not be going back. When we used to go our wrist bands would be checked upon leaving to ensure you are taking the child you came with. Today I walked right out.... nobody at the front. I even waited a minute thinking someone would eventually come back up front- no one came. How unsafe is this?? I could have left with any child in there. This place is being run by a bunch of teenagers. I will pay to go to Chuckie Cheese over this where my child is safe. 

Business response:

Kelly- We appreciate your feedback and taking the time to review our location. Your comments are being addressed with our staff as we strive to provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment for all our guests. We hope you give us another chance to provide you with the 5-star experience we strive to provide. Thank you.

We visited Monkey Joes for the first time this weekend. Our grandkids were in heaven! The staff was very friendly and I feel my grandkids were safe and secure. One of them is already asking to celebrate his birthday there! Great place for Gastonia! Sorry it took us so long to visit! :) 

Business response:

Thank you for your kind words Gina! We appreciate your review and we hope to see you back soon!

I would like to take the time to say that just like any other business you are only as good as you treat your customers because let's face it customers are why you have a business in the first place. Customer service should always be a priority! A business who wants to succeed and have great rating will go above and beyond in all aspects to please their guests even ones with special needs!!! Is it a child's fault that they aren't like every other kid?? I think not and I also think that sometimes great customer service means ... read more

Business response:

We are sorry to hear you feel this way. We do our best to accommodate all of our guests and 100% agree that customer service comes first. Obviously, we do not want to ever give that impression of anything otherwise to any of our customers. If you would like to discuss more specifics with our store manager directly please reach out to her at 704-824-5775. Thank you.

They are rude and mistreat children with disabilities! I say begin a boycott if things don't change followed by a discrimination lawsuit! CHANGE! 

Business response:

Ms Poole: We are sorry to hear you feel this way. Monkey Joe’s values all of our customers and families and we truly value the safety of all children visiting our facilities. As such, we have policies in place to protect the safety of our customers. The Under 3 area is designated for children in that age range based on age and our staff enforces these rules as fairly as possible.
