A fav spot in Ottawa for boy's birthday parties. If you are a visitor to the area, this is across the street from Midway and the science and Tech museum...makes for a great family day

Went with two of my sons and had a fun time, but find that the prices have crept up, even using a 2 for 1 coupon it seemed steep.
Otherwise, not much has changed in the past 10+ years - lots of room, plenty of people who don't respect the rules, and half the games in the lobby being broken.
I'll likely end up going back in a few years, hopefully with a coupon again...

Booked a team event. The staff at Laser Quest-amazing and made everything so easy from start to finish. Great communication. Energetic staff made event much more enjoyable and fun. Over 8000 square feet of space for games. Parking available. Would highly recommend for birthday, teams, team building or just to come and play a game. Fun for all ages: adults, children and teens.

Quite a disappointing experience: we booked a 9th birthday party at this facility. We asked in advance about the appropriate age and were simply told that kids as young as five used the facility. We asked what the best time would be for our group and we were advised mid afternoon. So we booked a mid-afternoon slot. As it turned out the five-year-olds the staff were referring to must have been quite tall and husky, as the laser-tag equipment is only one size, and that's grown-up sized (we later learned that they had some kid of padding - the kind of thing the staff might have thought about by simply looking at the group). Our group was put together with teenage kids, who looked just as disappointed to be stuck with youngsters. Young (i.e. eight-year-old) kids in our group were pushed around and some did not want to go back for the second game (included in the price). We mentioned this to the staff and were told that earlier in the morning would be better for grouping with younger parties. "Thanks," I didn't say, "Very helpful. Would have been great to know two months ago when we first spoke to you". Arcade games would have been available for those too intimidated to play, but the staff were unable to change a $20 bill to provide coins to play with: "our coin machine is broken" was the line. Party room was very small and very cramped, and there is very little time for set up and take down. In short the business is trying to cram too many people into their surprisingly small (for the all buzz) facility. Staff were generally friendly but it's the organization of this business that left us with a bad taste. Our mistake for booking here, caveat emptor and all that, but would have used another facility had we known what the experience would be like. For grown-ups: the decorations in the facility are rather "home-made" looking and likely not at the top of the industry standard. But there are probably not many competitors in town so have fun.

I planned an outing for my children and friends while travelling to Ottawa. They have played laser tag before at smaller venues so we gave it a try. Every single one of them loved it and wants to return again.... even my 18 year old son and his girlfriend. The music was vibrant, with a multi-level layout and dry-ice fog to set the stage for a thrilling game. Very exciting!

Laser Quest gives you a pretty much immersive experience. After selecting your call name, you're taken into the launch chamber to get a quick. The playing field is indoors, 3 levels, and dimly lit with blacklight. Easy to get lost in, but that adds to the fun! Lots of walls to hide behind, windows, mesh floors to shoot through, and mirrors to mess you up. Very fun to go with a group of friends, the more the better. Cost me just under $10 for one game when I went last week.

As somebody a decade and a half older than the usual customer here, I really didnt think I would enjoy that much. Happy to say, I was wrong. The whole work group, young and older alike, had a blast!Staff that work there were very friendly and enthusiastic. It does get hot and sweaty in there, so dress accordingly.

Went there for a kids birthday party. Girls, boys and a few adults (about 26 people all in). Everyone had lots of fun. Would do it again.

We went as a family and had a blast. The staff are enthusiastic (and good shots). They helped make it a fun experience. I even won a free round in a random draw. Highly recommend this place for families, friends, co-workers. Each round is 15 minutes and affordable. You can do 1 round or multiple rounds. Recommend reservations if in a big group.

Headed to Laser Quest this past Sunday with my 12-year-old daughter, foolishly thinking that we would walk in and play a few games. It had been YEARS since we played. Turns out there was a 45-minute wait; not bad. The place was a zoo, but the staff were all pleasant and the place seemed to run very well. 30 minutes after paying,we registered our player names, got our little activator things, then waited for a few minutes to be ushered into the game. After getting clear instructions, our 15-minute game begun. Maze is extensive and we had a lot of fun. Cost is $9/game. We played two games each; total cost was about $40 (with tax).
