| - Our group arrived to the front of the Gold Spike to find a short line at the door where you must show your ID...then, once you enter, wow, a fun place awaits for you and I ...you know...grown ups that are too old play on the playground without kids, but too energetic to stay home...fun grown ups.
This was my first time to Gold Spike...I was pleased that there was not an entrance fee, just a place to have some drinks with friends and have some fun like you might have had as a child on the playground...or with a friend at a slumber party having a pillow fight. We never managed to utilize the bed for the pillow fight, but our group got down with some 4 square, and corn hole. The playground was larger than I thought it would be, with lots of offerings, including beer pong, humongous chess, twister, tether ball, etc. When my love and I went down with some friends on a Friday night, there was a live band playing. We were in a large party of over a dozen people, but just like playground fashion would have it, we ended up playing with strangers and making new friends...a fun and easy way to wind down after a week of work.
Gold Spike is right in the heart of downtown, and we found a mix of lots of tourists and locals when we came. GS is perfect for a large group, but even a small party could have a great time. Don't take my word for it though, come play and get your drink on for yourself!
