Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is a clean well minded child activity centre.
It has a reasonable variety of things to keep young children occupied up to a limit of 10years old.
We brought a 5, 10 and 11 year old.,while the 5 year old loved it the and the 10year old did have a good time; entertaining the 11 year old (but closer to 12) was more difficult. The website mentions they cater for up to 16 year olds, well they must be very sheltered 16 year olds, me bet is you wouldn't get a 13 year old out of the car if you brought them here.
Ask that being said, for the toddler to 10 year olds this is an enjoyable 3 or so hours.

There is a coffee trailer on site and plenty of tables and picnic benches to choose from.

We paid €52 for 2 adults and 3 children which is a little steep for the facilities on offer.
(compare Dublin Zoo @ €54 for the same family)

The staff were good and friendly and there was good supervision on the site.

Had a brilliant day here. Our girl is nearly 6 and loved it. We stayed for 3 hours but honestly could've stayed for the 5 if we had time. There's so much to do, even when there's loads of people there everything is so spaced out it doesn't feel cramped.

All the staff we met were lovely. We had food that we thought was reasonably priced and was tasty, ice creams also weren't expensive.

Will definitely be back again.

I spent an amazing day with the team at Mellowes today.. My two nieces had a fantastic time exploring all of the facilities this adventure centre has to offer, And there are so many of them with all age groups catered for!!! It's beautifully maintained and spotlessly clean. The coffee garden provides a lovely place for the adults to have a chat when the smallies are adventuring!! If you're looking for a fun, safe place to visit I highly recommend Mellowes for your day out 😊😊

Due to my granddaughter's illness on the day she had to go to Mullingar hospital to be treated.
Her mother informed Mellows and asked could they go another day as the ticket was for two adults and two children. They did not want a refund.
They were refused the request as it was policy !
Such a simple request to be denied in this way is totally inflexible.
This is a shameful policy.

After attending a birthday party at Mellowes today, I was actually astonished & disgusted to see a post they put up on their social media platforms accusing the party host of deliberately leaving their one bag of rubbish that they had from tidying up after the party. It was a genuine oversight. It leaves a bitter taste in my mouth that an apparent professional business would stoop to this level of customer interaction. Amazing that I had spoke to family & friends today to recommend this place for the kids to just as quick retract my words. They will also only remember Mellowes for what they are capable of doing not for the facilities they have, The embarrassment and distress they have caused with their very unprofessional social media posts. Bad form Mellowes.

I cannot praise Mellowes enough. From the moment we arrived the staff were so nice and really interactive with the kids. Love the fact there are no hidden costs. There's so much to do we spent the whole day here, really refreshing not to be restricted to sessions because of covid. Coffee and cakes were excellent. The place is so clean and all the equipment is really well maintained. They even had games for the kids, face painting and staff doing bubbles. Can't wait to book our next visit!

Came here with a 6 year old and 4 year old and had a fantastic time! Played happily for 3 hours and would have stayed longer if they could have! So much space to run around and no activity felt overcrowded even though there were plenty of kids about!
Got some hot food there to keep us all going and it was great too, no complaints at all from anyone!

Absolutely brilliant place for kids!! my kids are 2 years, 9 years, 11 years. Fun for all the family myself and my husband were able to sit back and relax while t kids had fun! Loads to entertain them. Price was very reasonable. Bring a change of clothes for kiddies. There is mud kitchens,water stations, sand pits go karts mini golf no extra charges. I will definately be returning back and spreading the word. The owners were so helpful and friendly. And sanitizers everywhere great venue and all outdoors bring a picnic.

Poor value. Small and unfinished appearance. 28 euro when we arrived at 3pm on Sunday. One 5 year old and mammy and daddy. Gravel surfaces resulting in lots of small gravel all over the attractions. Dangerous hard core surfaces on the go cart tracks. Honestly, they could do a lot better.

The place doesn't look like in this pictures anymore, is just being upgraded into one of the best places you could dream about bringing your kids for a day out. Unbelievable, 8,4 and 3 year old entertained from start to finish. Great picnic and adult retreats,the whole place in general is amazing. You not just getting value for money you get that and a relaxing day.
We will definitely be back again. Love it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
