Don't waste holding a party here!

My 10 yrs old daughter had a birthday party there the other day. There was chaos in the building and no signs of a management team. You pay for a room and you get no help with the party. They do provide drinks, cups, plates, napkins and pizza, but you will have to go get everything yourself from the front counter. Oh yeah, bring your own decorations. All you will get is a bare room with tables and chairs. No one will check on you, that includes the nonexistant management. You will not get your monies worth from this place. Frazzlemom's comments ring the same tune. About half of the arcade games are not working properly and they are more outdated today. The one thing I did like was the Go Karts, they are very fast. Please Sherwood Forest build on your positives, which as of right now are few, to make this place great place to be. Care about what you have invested in.

• Pros: Love the Go-Karts and Bumper Cars
• Cons: Poor service for parties and aging / outdated video & arcade games

Nice place, still needs more upkeep

by jbaker232 at Citysearch

Sherwood is a great find considering we've been living in town for years and never knew it existed. Would probably get a lot more business if it were off the highway instead of stuck behind the Big Lots.

Overall, it's a good place that needs more upkeep. The game room area is very nice. Surprising amount of quality games. Mini-golf was fun until you got around all the murky standing water (guess the pumps were broken) Of course, we got eaten alive my mosquitoes (BRING INSECT REPELLENT) and the smell the ponds let out was sort of gross. Didn't go to the batting cages, go carts, bumper boats, bumper cars but they seemed nice from what we saw. My thoughts are they should focus a little more on having 1-2 great things instead of 5-6 marginal things. Cool place though, worth going to if you live in town.

• Pros: Variety, convenience, price
• Cons: facilities upkeep, overall quality
