The entire planning process was incredibly smooth, and they provide access to almost everything you need, which makes hosting a party so much easier for parents.

During the event, Jason was fantastic--he had everything we needed on hand, quickly helped with anything that came up, and took care of all the cleanup afterward, which was hugely appreciated. We had such a great experience and will definitely be hosting more parties at Playlab in the future!

Jason and Christian were fantastic. Jason communicated with me start to finish about booking, planning, and welcomed us day of to help with set up. The space was perfect for our group.

Even though it was a rainy day they made the outside conducive to the weather so that we had the option. They were both also very helpful in setting up with us before guests arrived.

If you're thinking about throwing a party here just do it! Kids had a blast and enough adult space in the front room to mingle. We had 20 guests total with 5 being kids.

-Bianca G.

Playlab is a great venue for so many reasons.

First, the space is great for kids 7 and under. There are both indoor and outdoor play spaces to allow kids the freedom to explore and all within a gated space so the crowd is contained and secure.

Second, they offered add-ons like balloons/ decorations or coffee, so you can minimize the stress of planning.

Third, it's affordably priced.

Fourth, they include a staff member with the booking to help you set up and clean up, and to support you throughout the party. Fifth, you can set up the place as you see fit and they are incredibly flexible.

Everything was so easy and they are very experienced in parties. All of the staff I interacted with were patient, kind and incredibly accommodating.

My little one now has a beautiful memory of her birthday party thanks to this place.

-Harleen G.

They were extremely helpful and responsive leading up to the day. We wanted to project a Yo Gabba Gabba compilation in the back room for kids to be able to chill out on some Nugget cushions and they were able to make it happen.

All the parents that came said their kids had an incredible time! Special shout out to Jason for all his balloon art and general help that day.

-Claire A

The sand box is such a genius idea! It definitely kept the older kids busy the whole time as gave the adults a chance to sit and enjoy the party.

The staff were very accommodating and helpful. The place was clean. Love the fact that it was both an indoor and outdoor venue so the babies and the elderly could sit inside.

It was hot and sunny outside but they had shades that kept us cool and nice. Outside sink was a plus. Will definitely come back. Thank you!

-Nairi S.

It's very clean and there is so much for my daughter to do and play with. She asks to go there almost every day now. I love the outdoor space too!

I found out about this location after attending a birthday party here - which was so lovely! The balloon garland was super impressive and I can't believe they made it in house.

My friend had such a wonderful experience having her party here that I booked my daughter's next birthday here as well! I talked to the owner Jason about my ideas for my daughter's party and he was so kind and knowledgeable.

I really appreciated how much time he took to answer all my questions as he walked me through the whole process. He calmed my nerves and made it all so easy. I can't wait to host my party here.

Highly recommend this location - and also check out the Playlab in Eagle Rock as well. It's equally wonderful.

-Kate C.

The price was completely reasonable for renting it for three hours, and booking it was crazy easy.

I communicated with Annabel at the Eagle Rock location and she made the process as simple as possible. She provided me with theme options (we chose jungle) and offered to set up decorations prior to our arrival for a small price. Literally all we had to do was bring cake, pizza, some paper plates cutlery, and babies!

They also do all of the cleanup for you after the party, Annabel made sure to come up and tell me not to lift a finger. We had a total of about 25 guests and it absolutely would have fit more. We even had a celebrity guest pop in from Crystal Castle Entertainment.

If you have the opportunity, I absolutely recommend throwing a party at either Play Lab location, but Eagle Rock does give you the option of having some outside time.

-Brittni K.

Last year, I planned a full on huge birthday for my daughter's 1st birthday and it was so much work.

This year, we wanted to keep it small...it was more of an excuse to have a play date...but I wanted to be as hands off as possible.

PlayLab made it so easy by ordering and setting up the decor (table setting, balloon garland, more balloons, tables, chairs) for us. Thank you! All I did was, order some Popeyes via Postmates, picked up a cooler full of popsicles from Nomad Ice Pops as it was a hooooooot day in August, and showed up.

The outdoor area was so hot that day, but my daughter loves their sandbox and she basically stayed there for her entire party.

-Amy C.

They went above and beyond to check in with us, buy supplies to match our theme, party plan, and support the event, I'll think twice about ever hosting at our home again.

The space is lovely and inviting, with tons of play areas to draw out every kid. The party blew by with very happy kids leaving...

And, my husband and I were thrilled we didn't have a house to clean after the fact! Whole heartedly recommend!

-Aimie B.

I also appreciate how easy they made the process to book. The online party planning tool was spot on and loved being able to just show up since most things I rented directly from them!

And above all the staff are genuinely kind people.

— Rosie B.

Everything went smoothly and the staff was great , they supported us with set up and clean up. We were able to bring our own food, desserts , and decorations.

Highly recommend this place for a toddler's birthday party !

One of the highlight was them allowing us to have a piñata for my son and his little friends to break.

Thanks Jason for helping us create a beautiful memory for us & our son!

-Sandy C.

Plenty of tables and chairs for grown ups and little ones, easy to decorate/ execute your own vision. Handwashing station at secure entry, bathroom that accommodates both diaper changes and littles who are potty training. They let me use their Bluetooth speaker so I could bump the Bluey Instrumental soundtrack.

I could've done a free birthday at the park or the beach, but I think I would've been stressed about keeping track of the kids in that case. Also, at 3, they don't really do "activities" at parties yet, they just want to PLAY - and there were so many options (cushion room, sand pit, play kitchen, dress up, climbing structure) here.

Thanks Playlab, for hosting my kiddos first IN REAL LIFE birthday party!

-Bree W.

They even ordered the pizza for us. All we had to show up with was ourselves.

Jason, the owner, has a great eye and can make any color scheme and/or balloon decor option work for your needs. All of our guests had fun playing both inside and outside.

Aside from hosting a party, we love coming here for open play! The pricing is so reasonable compared to other places, and it is much cleaner and designed for real play, not just overstimulation.

Everytime we pop in, my daughter makes a new friend. It is a great spot with a focus on community building, evident in all of their programming.

We really love PlayLab!

-Amy

There was something to engage every type of child, and places for parallel play or group activities. Super cute kid-size tables and chairs so the kids could eat together, and plenty of lounging areas for the adults.

So worth renting this space so adults can actually relax and talk to each other, and the kids had a blast.

Staff were extremely helpful - Carrie and Nicole supported with logistics, and Jason and Grace on the day-of.

It's a beautiful, clean and child-friendly space. We love going for parties, and also just for Open Play time as well. Thank you for having this space for families!

-C.P.

I would definitely recommend this space for a party. I can not comment about open play as my children are past that stage but in general the play space and bathroom are very clean. You won't be disappointed.

-Andrea R.

We live near the Eagle rock location, but we had to make a last minute pivot to Hollywood due to some weather issues.

Jason could not have been more helpful throughout the process, especially with the quick change.

He and Natalie helped us set up, organize everyone, and helped so much with planning and decor.

Everyone had a blast. There is just so much for kiddos of all ages to do here. Highly recommend.

-Kiran S.

This one doesn't have a significant outdoor play area, so depending on your preference that might be a downside, but it had an awesome array of toys and things for kids to play with.

Best for kids 5 and under in my opinion - we were there for a 4th birthday party and the kids had a blast. Parking was a bit of a walk on a Saturday morning so take that into account if you're bringing multiple kids.

-Jen O.

I went back and forth hosting one but have zero regrets doing it especially with how wonderful it played out start to finish. Guests also commented on what a perfect venue it was + how nice the staff treated everyone.

- Space: the venue alone has enough activities to keep kids engaged both indoors and outdoors. They also offer to connect you with unique hired entertainment options (e.g. balloon animals, petting zoo). Love the variety of toys/play structures to accommodate a wide age range. Easy street parking. Didn't feel too crowded even at max capacity.

- Included/rental items: this was so perfect to minimize stuff to transport/buy - from included tables/chairs/fridge/freezer to fairly priced serving ware/decor/ice/drinks...they really thought out everything to make it easier on busy parents

- Staff/communication: Jason and Christian were incredibly patient and helpful setting up decor, making sure things ran smoothly, and just being reliable experts to lean on. Having prior planning input + assistance day of saved me so much time and energy.

- Food/Drinks: Appreciated having the freedom to pick our own catering/BYOB option without an additional fee. Overall there's so much freedom to be as minimal or add on as much as you need (and without any added pressure or judgement).
They really built a great party planning system to meet your needs at a transparent, reasonable rate.

I knew my kids would love celebrating here given how much fun they have visiting. The sweet surprise was witnessing first time guests + their parents having a blast. We received so much positive input which helped validate our decision to celebrate extra special :)

-Kathleen N.

I needed someone to help "plan" the party. Jason took multiple calls from me and we discussed for quite a while, through phone and email. He sent me some referrals for desserts, balloons, etc. This was very helpful, and according to Jason, they have quite an extensive list of vendors if needed.

At the day of the party, Jason and his team member was present to assist. They both made sure EVERYTHING was to our expectations, and even assisted with moving items as vendors started coming in. To us this was very important and appreciated, because my family and I were juggling our own kids and guests at the same time. The bit of help went a long way for us.

Now about the venue, I would say it was perfect. There were plenty plenty plenty of things for the children to play with. The outside, although small, was more than enough for the children and guests to enjoy. The sandbox does do its work :)

Lastly, the parking is little to none, but it seemed like all our guests were able to park on the side streets without trouble.

Cost wise, this fit within our budget. However, it's the care of Jason and his team that really made our event great.

-Mike H.

It was a lovely venue and perfect for ages 0-4/5 as advertised.

I considered more than one venue and the service offered at this location was the best. I could tell they would be a great event coordinators.

Thank you for your time and helpful spirit! We'll consider this location in the future!

-Britney H.

I threw my daughter's fourth birthday there and all the kids had a great time. Best of all it's in a controlled space where the parents can relax too.

-Lindsay M.

The owner was super helpful super nice.
