Birthday Party- Orly's vs. Treetop

I am trying to figure out where to throw my baby's first birthday party. There will be kids of all ages so I want it to be fun for everyone. I have narrowed it down to Orly's Treehouse or Once Upon a Treetop. Has anyone been to a party at either? I want to know any positive and negative reviews of both! Thanks in advance!!

I haven't been to a party at either but have been to open play for both.

I loved Once Upon a Treetop for mine...who are 1 and 3.

Orly's was fun too but the play area was smaller.

My preference is Once Upon a Treetop.

I had my dd's 3rd bday party at the Treetop. The decision was easy for me since Orly's will not close the place for your party. So you will have other children who are there for open play at your kids party. The treetop was awesome since you had the whole room just for your party guests.
It was a very nice party and I was happy with the staff and location.
Just be aware of the pricing b/c they get you on all the little items you want to add. Everything costs extra.

Had my sons 1st birthday at Treetop and it was very good. I had all age kids, I think 1-5 years old. everyone enjoyed themselves.

I've been to both and like both. The advantage to Treetop is that you'll have the whole place to yourselves for the party. I believe Orly's would still be available to the public for open play. I'm not sure, so I would double check on that.

Thank you for your replies! I think I will just book Treetop. It's for a 1 year old's birthday with most of the kids between 1 and 6 so I think everyone will have fun there. I also didn't like that if I added an extra 1/2 hour of playtime at Orly's that it was also open to the public. Thanks again for all of the info!

Yes, we purchased the princess for our dd's 3rd party..totally not worth the $. All they did was put a brown haired girl in a Belle costume from party city. That's it. My dd kept saying where is her crown, it was a huge disappointment.
Plus we paid for coffee that they didn't bring out with the cake. We also did the sand art, that was very cute and I think it was worth the $. But not necessary for a 1 year old's party.

I thought a princess would be cute but then I saw a picture and it was just an employee in an ugly dress lol so def not doing that. I wish they had characters!! I was thinking about "cupcake the clown" who does face painting but don't know if that will be worth it either.

I've been to both. I like the party at Orlys better. However for open play I like Treetop better. There is more to do.
