The facilities are a little dated and worn but are in working order. I took my 10- and 9-year-old for an afternoon of go-karting and mini-golf. Two rides each (two solo, two with dad) and a game of golf cost about $31 - not bad. The mini-golf (there are two separate courses) is the usual assortment of pirate ships, western towns and wild angles. The carpets are bit worn and could use some renovation. There are two kart tracks - one for "rookies" and another one for those 12 and older. The go-karts in both are well-used and not very speedy. The smaller track is just an oval. The longer track (solo riders must be a minimum of 54 inches tall) has a combination of hairpin turns and straights. On either track, the ride is about five minutes long. There also are batting cages (baseball and softball) which we didn't use though we saw little kids and adults practicing). We walked through the arcade, which had many modern games and a pair of air hockey tables. The place seemed to be staffed with high-schoolers, some more enthusiastic and helpful than others. On the late weekend morning we went, there were a few teenagers on the karts. The mini-golf was populated by pre-teen grade-schoolers. All and all, this was good value for the money; perhaps a good place for visiting grandparents to take the kids. The nearby Andretti race complex has many similar aspects and are more modern - but also cost much, much more. We've been to both and this is by far a better value. Startime advertised birthday parties. You're also close to some family friendly restaurants (Athens - Greek; Dreamland - BBQ; Moe's - Mexican; plus the usual assortment of fast-food places - Chick-Fil-A, Starbucks and the like.)

Go there about 3 times a month with few friends, we have great time together. The go-kart is my favorite, get to bump all of my friends without any damage, the course is pretty average size. They also have update movie in their theater section, and there aren't as much people in the normal cinema on the weekend. Overall, I think it is a great place to hang out on the weekend and spends a few dollars.

This place is a great place for all kids. Though there may sometimes be a group of shady suspicious looking children, the place is usually pretty safe and inviting. There's lots to do here, from eating pizza to just sitting around, playing arcade games or mini-golf. There's also a go-cart track but there are certain requirements for riders.

The Startime Entertainment complex is a great place for your teens to hang out. There is a movie theatre, arcade games, go-kart area, and a mini-golf range. There are enough activities to keep the kids busy for a couple of hours. While the complex isn't the most modern and lavish park around, it is convenient for families who live in the north Atlanta region. Startime is located at the intersection of Holcomb Bridge and Alpharetta Highway behind Value City.
