“We had our daughter’s birthday party at Chipmunks Manukau, and the experience was fantastic! 🎉 Before booking, I had heard mixed feedback from friends and people in our community, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. But Chipmunks completely changed our perception. The service was excellent, the food was great, the atmosphere was lovely, and everything was managed very smoothly. A special shout-out to Valerie, the manager, who was absolutely phenomenal - energetic, friendly, supportive, and incredibly helpful throughout the party. She made the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable for us. Even some of our guests who had heard mixed things before were so impressed that they said they would consider having their own kids’ birthday parties here. Thank you, Valerie and the Chipmunks Manukau team, for making our daughter’s birthday so special. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“We came today 25/1/26 for a birthday party (2-4pm) and the staff you had on, especially the young lady in the grey singlet were amazing. So impressed by the customer service provided to us in the party room. Everything was done with a smile which made the party a breeze with such efficient and helpful staff. I hope the bosses see this review and reward the team accordingly. In addition, the food was outstanding, I’m genuinely blown away at the quality provided. Well done Chipmunks Manukau.”

“My son loved it here. Everything was really clean including the toilets. He is 2 years old and there were multiple areas for his age group which is a nice change from other places. He was super happy. There were no damages, everything worked and there were a variety of things to keep him occupied. The kids pizza meal was good and the burgers were amazing tbh. The beef burger is highly recommended. Best children's playground by far and we will def return soon. 👍”
