    So fun and interactive, my son loved playing with all the different types of slime they had to offer. Each ticket comes with a free build your own slime, and that was also very fun to make, from choosing the color and texture to picking what scent you want. Great family outing. Highly Recommend

    Sloomoo was good but really expensive $50, especially when it is just the kids playing. Yes everyone gets a slim kit but in reality the kits for the parents are really for the kids, I could have done without it because I'm not playing with the slim. It is great that the have other interactive games such as the glow cave and movie room along with the touch room that makes different sounds. The play area was not bad either. All in all, it was a good experience and the staff was friendly and all the areas were very clean. Oh thank heavens I didn't pay for that extra experience, the slim bath that is. Super expensive and definitely not worth it.

    Food- NA Service- 5/5 Ambience- 5/5 Drinks- NA Value- 10/5 This place is fantastic for the kids. Would definitely recommend. Lots of hands on slime for everyone to play with and it really showcases the variety and adaptability of slime to be something different for everybody. You buy a ticket to get in at a specific time and get to play with sooo many varieties of stickiness, wetness, composition, soft, hard, and everything in between. At the end of the experience, you get to make your own slime to take home. You choose what type of slime, then a scent, color, and a couple of small charms to embody yourself. The staff is exceedingly courteous l, helpful, and full of fun themselves. They were awesome. Perfect place to take some younger kids and let them play for at least 1.5hrs if not longer. Towards the end of the slime tour, there is a miniature jungle gym type area where the kids even get to take their shoes off and walk/run through some slime. Totally worth the price of admission. I will definitely be coming back next time we bring the kids to the city.

    This place is located close to Subways stations, but we drove into the city and it was easy to find a street parking. Place was great! It was rainy and we enjoyed our time there very much. We still play with Sloomoo slime all the time. I would really recommend this place to parents with kids of all ages.

    Where adults can feel like kids! I had an absolute blast at Sloomoo! I was there with 2 other adults and we loved it. The staff was so welcoming and friendly. They have a ton of different slimes you can play with and they all have unique scents and textures. It was super therapeutic to just sit there and play with slime and get lost in the moment. DEFINITELY UPGRADE the experience and get slimed! That was probably the highlight for me. I definitely laughed hysterically as the slime rained down on us. Don’t worry they give you a plastic covering and so your clothes are totally protected. It was great to see everyone around us smiling and enjoying the experience regardless of age. I will definitely be back soon!

    Amazing time, get there early it's getting very full and you have to wait outside. We were amongst the first ones, had a blast. The team was very nice, well staffed, and we enjoyed it all. Would surely recommend even for the adults, the experience is super satisfying

    Was an awesome experience. But we went on a Saturday around 3pm with a large group ourselves and it was crowded. They were super vigilant about keeping mask on and up and wiping your hands. I can't say all the staff was super friendly but a good amount was. The experience was worth it. All the kids loved it. We loved being able to create our own slime. Also, it's not an all day affair. You can get in and out under an hour if you semi rushed it. But take your time and feel the slime lol

    It was a great time for the kids, tons of slime all over , fun activities and nicely put together slime making stations. Skip the premium / vip slime experience. It’s def a waste of $. They pour “slime” on your head in front of the crowd … but it’s not the same slime. It’s basically water. Def recommended visiting tho. It’s worthwhile trip.

    All 5 kids I took had previous slime experience and were looking forward to being at the institute. They ranged in ages from 16-8, all of them had an appreciation for the institute and the various slimes. Watching the employees here was a highlight for me. They were all so upbeat and happy to be there. They treated each kid as if they were their first client. Amazing staff and experience.

    Every ticket admission comes with a free slime that we can make. You first pick what kind of slime you want (glossy, cloud, etc), then the smell, then the color, and then 3 trinkets. This place is small and we spent about an hour here total with 2 small kids. Overall they really REALLY enjoyed it. 5/5!

    Definitely a great place to take your kids. You a guaranteed to have a good time. The slime is slimetastic and the kids get to experiment with different textures. Definitely a hidden gem and a great birthday spot. They treated my daughter exceptionally well and all the staff is very nice. 10/10

    Definitely kids love here!! Adults also enjoy to touch a lot of different textures slime. We could make an own slime per person to choose texture, color, aroma and three toppings for each slime. There is a playing space for kids at the end of part, I cleaned our soles of shoes while kids playing.

    We Loved sloomoo, my son and niece enjoyed every second of it. It’s better to book online in advance, rather than get there and have to wait outside. The staff were very kid friendly and energetic. Best part was when you got to mix your own slime. Wide variety of aromas and you get to choose what type of slime you want. I Definitely recommend taking your children here.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! We (2 adults) went and enjoyed ourselves. We thought we wouldn’t like it but we actually LOVED it!! We showed up at 9am and when we exited 90 mins later there was a long line out the door. So we would recommend going first thing in the morning— you get more uninterrupted time with less people! All of the staff was SO kind and helpful. The slime was fun to play with. They had fun experiences with the slime too. The gift shop was amazing too!! The only thing I would recommend for Sloomoo would be to let those know who are traveling ahead of time about the TSA regulations with your slime. Maybe have an add on button when you buy your tickets? But would do again!!!!!!

    LET ME START WITH THE GOOD . friendly staff Cute theme Interesting HOWEVER 1 BATHEROOMS .... AND IMAGINE COMMING FROM FAR AWAY AND you have to wait online outside you ask them to let you use the restroom they say no till u go inside . Just make sure you have good bladder or go nearby batheroom before hitting up on the lines to go in . Just make sure goto batheroom before u even feel like going because it can be a line or maybe not depends . And getting slimed was ehhhh . ... Everything else was ok but could be better . Walking on the slime was very disappointing it wasnt like the photo. But it was cute . But wouldnt go back twice Was dying of thirst bring water 💧

    This is a very great place for kids, and you can design your own slime. I would come here again and recommend this place to anyone. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a vibrant and colorful space filled with various slime-themed exhibits. I especially enjoyed the DIY slime bar, where I got to create my own custom slime with various colors, textures, and scents. The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about all things slime, and they were more than happy to share their expertise with me.

    I scream, you scream, we all scream for…SLIME. Oh my goodness, if slime is your thing Sloomoo is THE place. Truly wonderful and extraordinarily happy & fun experience for all ages. From DYI slime creations, many types of slime to test, the slime lake, and of course the all slime immersion experience. The only possible critique is it ain’t cheap. But while the entrance is timed, if you plan to go early, you can spend many hours of the day making the price tag worth it for a truly unique and fun experience. Whether for the family, friends, or even solo. Birthday’s too!!!

  • 5/5 The O. 9 months ago on Google
    The kids had a blast - it’s amazing the draw for slime! It’s a heck of a business model as the parents have to pay to supervise their kids! $$$$ But it was a fun 90 mins for the kids and gave them a break from constant walking. They enjoyed it - so that’s all that matters! Make sure to make a reservation!

    Very entertaining for young kids… and parents You can try all kinds of slime, their different thicknesses, smoothness, textures and even scents. Then you make your own slime with your preferences about you just felt and smell There is no time limit At the end the kids can walk in a small thick slime pool We didn’t tried the slime shower

    Went here for my niece's 13th birthday. The kids had fun, I just thought there should be more for the price. There wasn't as much to do here like the other pop up museums. The ability to make your own slime was really cool, but there should have def been more to do for a price tag of $70!

  • 5/5 ana f. 2 months ago on Google • 17 reviews New
    Celebrated my niece's 10th birthday here today and we (yes, including my 44 year old self) had the time of our lives touching different slimes and then choosing the color, type, scent etc on the one you get to take home. Spent 2 hours. Staff was great and all seem to love their job. Very welcoming. Did the slime at the end too and had enough plastic over that my clothes did not get dirty. Absolutely recommend this place for all ages.

    Our daughter absolutely loved it! I didn't love the pricing for adults. There is no option to just spectate and watch your child enjoy themselves. Full price or nothing. Despite that, I would still recommend to all parents who can afford it and who's kids love slime like mine.

  • 4/5 Erin J. 1 month ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    If your child loves slime it was worth it. It’s shorter than expected. Price isn’t terrible considering you leave with a custom created slime. My kids had fun. We didn’t pay extra to be slimed…it’s $30…didn’t seem worth it…I told my kids I would mix up something and they could be slimed at home. Asmr rooms are a bust due to the acoustics of the place. Very clean. Friendly staff.

    Fantastic experience at Sloomoo! From the second we walked in the door we met friendly and helpful Sloomoo associates who guided us through all the activities. Our belongings were securely stored for us and lots of hand sanitizing stations provided a worry free visit. Kids of all ages loved playing with the huge slime stations and interacting with the awesome sloomoo staff Some of our favorite stops; slingshot slime, adding to the slim wall, walking across lake slime and of course making our own slime So many colors, textures and scents Well done Sloomoo!!

    2 hours of fun time. Many activities from slime to interactive dancing. Very helpful and friendly staff. Not crowded during weekdays.

    We absolutely loved it there. Staff was amazing, my daughter had the best day ever! We were there for an hour or so and had so much fun. Totally worth it if your child loves slime🥰

  • 4/5 Roddy C. 2 years ago on Google
    My kids love to play with slime, so my wife and I surprised our daughter for her 8th birthday by taking her to Sloomoo. Our kids had a great time. There were several stations with slime activities for kids to play. My only complain would be that it was a bit over crowded.

  • 4/5 Maria Mootoo (. 2 years ago on Google
    This was a slimy experience to say the least. I am not a big fan of slime but I stuck my hands in it a few times. I didn't know there were different textures to this stuff. I definitely preferred the clear to the rest...even made my own purple madness. The experience was quite sticky, yet fun.

  • 5/5 Thomas D. 2 years ago on Google
    Visited with my family on a Saturday for brunch. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The staff were friendly and attentive. All of the food was delicious and with generous portions. The little ones loved the food as well. A wonderful experience.

    I didn't like slime till I visited this shop. I had more fun than my granddaughter 😁🤣. So much to do with slime, so many different slime's to play with and make. Can't wait to return. Prices are reasonable, and you get free slime apon arrival.

    Went with a 4 adults and 5 kids ages 2-8. The kids were in heaven, all of them! As an adult the entire experience was perfect! The kids had a great time, playing with the different textures and each one was so entertained from start to finish. Highly recommended!!

    It is a waste of time and money. Way too expensive and not impressive at all.
