My kids are 6 and 1. Great for kids above the age of 2 maybe 3.
Amusements are good however only downfall is that the rides that need staff to monitor them or work them are really under staffed, we had to wait for the ride opposite to finish for the girl to come across and work the ride we were queuing for, this happened a few times... I was here 3 years ago and it was the same.

We ate in the diner here, food is actually nice here, we were pleasantly surprised as places like this don't normally have good food. But I would give the food 5 stars for a kids place.

We went into the player, we were charged €12 between the kids for 1 hour. Eldest had great fun, there's very little for kids under 2 in here. Very little only 2 small areas with very little in them. I was sitting in area at the end of the play area as the youngest made her way down there and there where no older kids in that area but we were asked to leave by a member of staff, when I said if older kids comes we will leave and she said adults aren't allowed in any of the play areas. So we then left. Really don't think kids under the age of 2 should be charged especially when there only allowed in 2 areas with very little in them.

Thank you for your comments.

Firstly we will address the cost of our play area for little ones. Under 1's go free but, going forward, we will definitely look at prices for two years olds.

Regarding the staff covering the rides, due to Government contact tracing and isolating rules, some of our staff have been absent but we have been doing our best to cover all the rides under the circumstances.

We do hope you'll visit us again. Thanks again for your feedback.

After a hard days work I wasn’t looking forward to a children’s party of 12 seven year olds.
From the moment we stepped into perks it was absolutely effortless.
The lovely girl at reception desk was super efficient.
(I’m sorry I don’t remember her name) she took the food order & having a few dietary requirements it was handled with “no problem whatsoever” & even managed to conceal the different order from the other kids.
Another lovely young lady Emma, looked after our every need. She was super patient with the kids & they absolutely loved her.
The adults sat peacefully with a delicious burger, a lovely Costa coffee & a chat, didn’t have to lift a finger. After almost 3 hours of fun we packed up & went home to a clean house. (Another bonus)
Perks covered everything, from food, drinks, birthday cake, party bags & even a gift for the birthday girl.
I highly recommend perks parties & they cater for all ages.
We are so lucky in Youghal to have it at our doorstep.
Thank you perks team, we will be back soon.

We were 2 families visiting with 4 children and decided to go for a game of bowling while in Youghal for a short break. We had significant difficulties with the bowling game which kept jamming and failing to register the correct scores. The staff were as helpful as possible and very friendly and did add on some extra time for us but it did affect our enjoyment of the game. Afterwards we decided to spend a bit of time (and money) on the amusements but there were multiple technical issues with some of that too. The basketball games not registering scores. Whack a mole games broke down in the middle of using it and a gun game which shoots foam balls had a mind of it's own. Poor experience to be honest. I suggested the proprietors invest in some equipment maintenance

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. All feedback is greatly appreciated. Unfortunately with mechanical machines and games, they can break down sometimes. We have technicians on the floor at all times to offer assistance and fix any machines that sometimes have issues. I do hope that you will visit us again soon and once again thank you for your review.

Hi all, my daughter and her friend had a joined party and the staff in Perks couldn’t have done enough for the kids. 2 of these kids were my autistic nephews. The staff, even though they were young, were very accommodating. The 2 boys got to join in in all activities. We did the soft play which was very safe, the carousel, the bumper boats and the ladybirds. Food was lovely, they gave us two pictures and fab party bags. We’ll be back.

Staff refused to leave my son on the trampoline because he is autistic. Just because my son is non verbal doesn’t mean he doesn’t understand that he must be strapped in as this was their reason for not leaving him on. Disgraceful treatment.
