- Purchased a Groupon (great deal) - Easily reserved date online for 6 20something year olds - Knowledgeable, funny host (Joseph) - You can communicate with the host for time checks and 3 hints via walkie talkie - Fun puzzles! Challenging but not impossible! - Would love to come back and try the other rooms...note that there's nothing fancy/electronic-y about the Prison Room (I mean it is a Prison after all) - Highly recommend!

On a first trip to San Francisco, this ended up being the highlight and stand out of the trip amidst many amazing restaurants, bars, and tourist attractions. Though it was very crowded, we ordered drinks for our group of 4 and waited until the indoor mini golf course opened back up. It is a tight and crowded space in a lovely Victorian row house in the Mission District and waits at the holes did get backed up but not too bad. The 14 hole course was so inventive, locally themed, and intricate that each hole was so interesting and often at first perplexing to find out which paths your balls could take and where they would pop out and where the actual hole was. I can't believe all the details and engineering that must have gone into this and we loved the course ranging from Duck shoot theme to electronic space video game theme to Day of the Dead themed to octopus under the sea themed to San Francisco earthquake themed and everything in between. There is a full service bar with beer, wine, and cocktails and it is cool that you can take your drinks along the way (a small countertop table at each hole) and there were people of all ages there including families with small kids and babies along with the 20s and 30s groups and couples. It is a great way to spend an afternoon or evening in San Francisco and I would definitely recommend this place because it was so detailed and eclectic and unlike any mini golf course I have ever seen. Great concept and only thing would be how to control the queues in the small spaces.
