From the reviews

The center was nice and spacious and very clean and can accommodate many events at once. I attended the Black Millionaires convention this past Saturday, and there was another event happening at the same time.

★★★★☆ — Tinika, Feb 2023

Great space! I am visiting from out of town and got a day pass at a great deal! They have so much to offer here; from arcade & rock climbing to a walking track, spin room and great weight and cardio space. The locker rooms are outstanding! Towel service, sauna and steam room!

★★★★★ — Christine, Nov 2019

Bowling was fun. EpiCenter is clean and well maintained. Arcade room was ok. We went there because it was an add-on to the Groupon. 10 lanes. Nice atmosphere

★★★★☆ — Charlesha, Jan 2026

This place is truly a hidden gem, in plain sight! We hosted my son’s birthday party here, and everything from the cleanliness of building to the staff made it a fantastic experience.

Birthday parties at Riverside EpiCenter

Riverside EpiCenter hosts birthday parties — confirmed on their own site. Climbing parties come with staff who handle the harnesses and belaying, so parents can mostly watch. One thing that's different here: every guest needs a signed waiver — send the gym's waiver link to the other parents when you send invites, or check-in day gets slow. Packages, party rooms, and pricing change often, so check the current options and book ahead — weekend slots go fast at popular gyms.
