The Edge, featured in the Theme Park Directory category, offers a variety of entertainment options for families and individuals. Customer reviews present a mixed experience, with positive feedback on the activities and staff, but concerns about maintenance and outdated facilities.

Customers have enjoyed the summer unlimited day special, which includes laser tag, go-karts, and bumper cars for a set price.

The facility offers additional amenities, including an arcade, bowling alley (which was reported as closed during one customer's visit), concession stand, bar, restaurant, and movie theater. However, some customers have noted that the arcade games can be expensive.

There are also concerns regarding the overall condition of the facility, with some customers describing it as having a "1980" feel and needing updates. This suggests that the establishment may benefit from renovations to improve its appearance and functionality.

Customer Reviews

I spent a fantastic day with my teenage children. Surprisingly, I even had a great time. We bought the summer unlimited day special. The special $30 per person price included laser tag, go-carts, and bumper cars. Although I am older and not so in shape, it was an enjoyable time! Laser tag was a cardio workout; we were all sweaty when we were done. Ensure you wear shoes and no flip-flops; another guest was turned away. We spent around $90. It can get expensive to enjoy all The Edge has to offer. This location offers much more, but we had a long drive home and didn’t enjoy everything. An arcade area as you walk in costs about $.50 &up per game. There was a bowling alley, which I wanted to enjoy, but it was closed. There is also a concession stand, a bar, and a restaurant, including a movie theater. The staff was terrific and helpful. We plan to visit at least twice a year if permitted. Would recommend.

Half of the machines are out of order. Three of the machines that we played needed an out of order sign because they took our kid's money. The go carts were also backed up due to mechanical issues with a cart(s). The place looks and feels like 1980. It could really use some updates. I'd recommend going to Dogwood in Ofallon for arcades in this area.

To begin, half of the arcade was broken. The men's bathroom has no mirrors, and you can see into the arcade from the sinks. Not very private at all. They got rid of refills, so anytime you run out and want more, you have to completely pay for an entire new drink. They also have a "18+ to enter without a guardian" policy which they pick and choose when to enforce. This was a place made for kids and teenagers, though it's not like that anymore. They completely focus on the bar portion and give zero attention to fixing or renovating: bumper cars, vr, go karts, and previously mentioned, the arcade. To circle back to no-refills, pricing is already insane for a low quality product. It can be a fun experience if your willing to blow a decent amount of cash, but it's not what it used to be. If your just wanting to see a movie I would strongly recommend the Lincoln theater instead. The theater is as old as belleville and has a ton of history to it. There is no policy for teens and $1 refills + being much more affordable!

Great place for a date night movie. We came for the bistro theater. The theater was very clean and well kept. We ordered some food to eat during the movie and we were not disappointed. The food was delicious. Although we didn’t have time to enjoy the other amenity’s, they also have a really nice bar and restaurant as well as arcades, laser tag, and go carts. I highly recommend everyone checking this place out.

My wife and I came to the bistro on a Friday night. It wasn’t overwhelming busy for a Friday, but we had to wait over an hour between ordering our food and receiving it. The taste was far from being worth the wait. When the check came, 20% gratuity was already added in, though our service did not warrant such. We will not be returning for such poor service and food.
