Happy Joe’s Pizza & Jungle Bungle – W. 50th

If you’ve got kids between 2 and 10 and need somewhere to burn off energy on a cold Iowa afternoon, this W. 50th Street location pulls double duty pretty well. The Jungle Bungle climbing structure keeps younger kids busy while you actually sit down and eat a slice — which, honestly, is the real win here. It’s fully enclosed, so you’re not chasing anyone into a parking lot, and there are restrooms and parking on site. The arcade games make it a legit birthday party destination, and the themed play area gives it enough personality that kids ask to come back. Not a bad call when you want food and play without making two separate stops.
