"I had mistakenly booked our group for 10:30 a.m. instead of 11:30 a.m. When we arrived, I checked my confirmation email and realized my error. It was very upsetting, as we were a group of two adults and five children who were extremely excited for the experience. I immediately called The Running Grid's 0800 number, and Carrie was incredibly supportive and accommodating. The process to change our games was easy, and she patiently assisted me the entire time. Everyone came home happy and excited! It was such a great and wonderful experience for the kids. The communication was lovely and clear. I definitely recommend this venue—it was clean, offered a safe place to store belongings, and had a beautiful front area with enough space for our group to move around and take photos. Five stars for an amazing experience and top-notch customer service!"
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for older kids, teens, and adults who want a high-energy active session — this is more workout than play centre. Reviewers consistently note it's fast-paced and competitive, and call out the customer service (Carrie is named for going out of her way to fix booking errors). Air-conditioning gets a specific mention.

“10000000/10 Great experience, easy to navigate inside the venue & so much fun! The Good: - Great pricing $80 NZD ($70AUD) 4 x Adults in 35min session - Parking available and restaurants downstairs - Toilet on-site - Locker with key available to store your belongings while you play - Vending machines with water/juices and games available - Can access the venue earlier than your time slot (Great for us cos it was hot outside today) - Air con in both game rooms (absolutely needed after that workout) The Bad: - Location: Google Maps says its right at the entrance, when it's actually located upstairs next to Systematic Accounting services (photo & video attached) Highly recommend for energetic kids, friend groups and team building!”

“It was great fun! The perfect activity for a group of friends or family to enjoy some teamwork and exercising time together 😄 highly recommend it! The facilities are clean and tidy. There is a display of rankings across NZ. Xxx We also got a labubu in the weekly draw as part of the soft opening - you will be in the draw after you make a booking :)”

“Super fun and easy experience I have never seen anything as wonderful as this, combining both endless fun and a workout, the self service setup is very easy to follow and it’s great to have the space all to ourselves. The game is fast paced and highly addictive, I can stop playing! Will be back 100%”
