Where to Escape Without Leaving the City

A very good bird, though you probably wouldn’t want to do both the chicken and the pork chop, and the pork chop is much better. This is the dish that most people know best from Vinegar Hill House, and for good reason. Cooked in their wood-burning oven, this thing is as juicy and tender as a piece of pork can get. There will always be a rotating menu of incredible pasta dishes on the menu at Vinegar Hill House, and our recommendation is that you order all of them. The servings are relatively small, and two or three for your table will be just right.

Few homes have sold in the Vinegar Hill area recently and none in the last year, said longtime real estate agent John Greenwood of ERA Golden West Realty. Lovers of traditional neighborhoods and classic domestic architecture will feel at home on Vinegar Hill, with its many vintage homes built in Queen Anne, Craftsman, American Foursquare and other styles. Several others have become rental properties or community-living facilities offering refuge from substance or spousal abuse. The local HPOZ board chairman is resident John Mattson, a computer programmer who spends much of his vacation time restoring his home. Marlow & Sons is one of the original modern Brooklyn restaurants, and it’s still one of the best places to eat in the city.

We will let you know about discounts, new products, and special promotions. Mattson and his wife, Kara McCleod, bought their 10th Street home in 2002 for $206,000. It’s a 1903 Queen Anne-style Victorian cottage, with later Craftsman features dating from 1917.

We have limited space and cannot accommodate changes in reservation time or party size. Nestled in the heart of the Los Olivos area, we've embraced the ideal climate for olive oil production. Each olive handpicked and cold-pressed, resulting in the creation of the highest quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Come on down to our tasting room and discover a world of locally sourced Extra Virgin Olive Oils, Balsamic Vinegars, Flavored Olive Oils, and other delicious products from nearby farms.

Tasting room location

We love coming to Vinegar Hill House on a summer weekend evening, right as they open, and grabbing a table in the back yard. Sometimes we’ll even make a day of it, starting on the Manhattan side of the Brooklyn Bridge and taking a walk that ends here. We love the vibe of the restaurant, we love the pasta, we love the wine list, and we looooove the pork chop.

Vinegar Hill House has been tucked away in the quirky, quiet, Dumbo-adjacent nook that is Vinegar Hill since 2008, and for nearly that long, it has been the most wonderful restaurant around. The cocktails are bespoke Manhattan and Negroni-types, always handsome and artful. Dinners usually include the juiciest pork chop or a hearty homemade pasta with kill-me-now ragù. Brunch is greasy enough to cure a hangover — those home fries, a.k.a. “wood-fired potatoes”!

The Garden and Sidewalk are outdoors so it's important to be mindful of the weather when booking these tables. Indoor dining includes our Main Dining Room and our Fireside Dining Room downstairs. We will hold a table for up to 15 minutes after the reservation time.

“It was still on the first set of wiring when we moved in,” McCleod said. To maintain the historic character of the neighborhood, owners of historic properties must adhere to strict standards when renovating a building’s exterior. Around the turn of the century, the cream of San Pedro society -- families of bankers, real estate agents, lawyers and civic leaders -- set up house on the hill. Early immigrant residents of Vinegar Hill -- first Scandinavians, then Italians, Croats and Yugoslavs -- made their own wine at home, dumping the dregs and grape skins into a nearby gulch. The sour smell is believed to have given Vinegar Hill its name. Our newsletter hand-delivers the best bits to your inbox.

By providing high quality treatment services, House of Hope creates a warm, nurturing environment where the journey of recovery can begin. Using a wide range of therapeutic approaches, the House of Hope team provides a unique and successful program that embraces the 12-step philosophy. When you visit Olive Hill Farm, you're not just tasting olive oil—you're embarking on a journey of flavors.

But after a city-sponsored survey of the area, the Vinegar Hill preservation zone is about to expand. The enlarged zone will soon reach from 8th to 12th streets and from Palos Verdes Street to Pacific Avenue, encompassing many historic structures. A part of San Pedro deeply rooted in the past is enjoying new life thanks to its historic-district designation in 2001 by the city of Los Angeles. Vinegar Hill, once the enclave of San Pedro’s elite and the site of some of its oldest homes, is the smallest of the 22 areas throughout Los Angeles known as Historic Preservation Overlay Zones.

— but there’s a nagging sense that the food is somehow a little too serious and the ambience a bit too intense for what purports to be a casual neighborhood spot. Despite appearances, it’s not the kind of place you feel able to just swing by. That said, the food is consistently great, especially the dramatically two-toned signature dessert, a pitch-black chocolate Guinness cake with a stark white cream-cheese frosting. As a result, we're not here to tell you that things have changed here. We're here to tell you that things are still really, really good here.

Vandelay Hospitality, the group that operates Hudson House, entered the Houston market a few years ago with East Hampton Sandwich Co., but pulled out around the pandemic. Much like the touted martinis, the food menu at Hudson House offers timeless American fare with approachable prices. Expect staples with a nod to the East Coast like the lobster roll, East Coast oysters, maple-planked salmon, and crab cakes. Other favorites include the signature cheeseburger with Hudson House sauce, steak frites, and Japanese nigiri and sushi rolls. Originally opened in Dallas in 2017, Hudson House takes its inspiration from neighborhood restaurants in New York's West Village. The concept is built around a classic, double patty cheeseburger, an extensive selection of raw oysters, and the self-described "World's Coldest" martinis.

Maven's making moves

Walsh said the dancers were tipped off that Jagger would stop by. "His visit had the dancers buzzing on Saturday," said the ballet star.We were all excited to have such an accomplished artist and icon watch us work. Especially in a ballet like Mayerling that’s choreographed by Kenneth MacMillan and was premiered at the Royal Ballet where Mick has had a long history supporting. CHAPMAN & KIRBY, THE premier event destination in Houston’s East Village, is thrilled to announce the launch of its Spring Music Series, kicking off on Friday, April 12. Chapman & Kirby has become synonymous with top-tier events and unforgettable experiences, many attended by celebrities both local and worldwide.

N Versailles Avenue Dallas, TX

Vandelay purchased the building a year ago and has been retooling the 8,500-square-foot space ever since. Hudson House is billed as an American grill that serves timeless American food. The menu — which is identical at lunch and dinner — has a check average of $35 per person. If that cheeky corporate moniker sounds familiar, you must be a Seinfeld fan. Vandelay founders Hunter Pond and Kyle Brooks, former college roommates, watched the sitcom, which featured a Vandelay Industries, religiously for years.

Lennox Lane Dallas, TX

With concert ticket prices soaring to hundreds and even thousands of dollars in the last year, this eight-week music series promises to be a welcomed opportunity to engage with live music for free, showcasing an eclectic lineup of talented acts. What sets Vandelay’s restaurants apart, in Pond’s estimation, is service. Playing up the coastal seafood theme are entrees such as a soy-glazed, maple-planked salmon ($42) and pan-seared lump crab cakes ($48). These HUD properties include single-family houses, apartments, duplexes, and townhouses. Being pre-qualified before attempting to purchase a HUD property is very important.

The menu focuses on East Coast-inspired dishes paired with classic cocktails. Elsewhere on the menu, diners can look forward to honey-grilled chicken sandwiches, lobster rolls, and hearty entrees like chicken parmesan and salmon grilled over a maple plank. Hudson House is also a popular brunch destination in Dallas, thanks to its red velvet chicken and waffles, avocado toast, and eggs Benedict loaded down with lobster. The restaurant is a project of restaurateur Hunter Pond’s Vandelay Hospitality, who brought his fast-casual sandwich chain East Hampton Sandwich Company to Houston in 2018. The first location, opened in Montrose, has since closed, but the River Oaks outpost continues to operate. Based in Dallas, Hudson House currently operates three outposts in the city, where it’s earned raves for its upscale-but-casual vibe, strong selection of briny East Coast oysters, and a killer happy hour that involves expertly mixed $5 martinis.

COVID and takeout services such as Uber Eats and Favor cut deep into their bottom line. Not to mention having a 3,000-square-foot location (one of three Houston East Hamptons at the time) in one of the priciest retail enclaves in the city in River Oaks District. Lessons were learned and changes subsequently made as Vandelay temporarily exited Houston.

HAPPY HOUR

He has been with Community Impact for more than 11 years, previously serving as editor for the company's Cy-Fair edition. His past work has covered a variety of topics, including the 2018 Harris County flood-control bond referendum, the lack of affordable housing in Houston and the city's efforts to diversify its transportation options. Permit applications filed with the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts indicates that Hudson House will expand to Houston, and a representative for the chain has confirmed those plans for growth to Eater. The Houston outpost will open at 1964 West Gray Street, inside the River Oaks Shopping Center. It’s the fifth for Hudson House, the first outside of DFW, and will boast the chain’s largest raw bar.

Victory Park Lane #2900 Dallas, TX

To bring the concept to Houston, Hudson House owner Vandelay Hospitality Group has selected a space next to Brasserie 19 at 1964 West Gray Street. The 4,500 square-foot restaurant will feature leather booths, a large wraparound bar, and the concept's largest raw bar, where diners will be able to watch shuckers prepare platters of oysters and decadent seafood towers. Hudson House pairs its dishes with a selection of classic cocktails that is highlighted by the “World’s Coldest Martini.” To achieve the proper effect, the drink is vigorously shaken and served in a frozen glass.

Having visited the Dallas Drake’s, I can attest to its very see-and-be-seen nature, where tables clustered close together under the glow of flattering light foster a jovial party atmosphere of table hopping and delicious people watching. In terms of inspiration, Pond admits there is a direct through line from the decor at Drake’s Hollywood to Graydon Carter’s famed celebrity haunts Waverly Inn and Monkey Bar revamp in New York. At Monkey Bar, signature caricature murals adorn the walls (care of artist Edward Sorel). Its Drake’s Hollywood, arguably Vandelay’s most high-profile restaurant, is set to open later this year in the former Montrose home of the original Georgia James steakhouse on Westheimer Road. With a weeks-long waits for a table not uncommon at both the Dallas and Beverly Hills Drake’s Hollywood restaurants, we’re guessing you can expect a similar buzz for Houston’s own.

Get more of Dallas’ top restaurant, real estate, society, fashion and art in your news feed. As noted, Hudson House is touted as an upscale American grill that serves “timeless American fare” with a menu that’s identical at lunch and dinner.

Once seated, diners may choose from options such as a cheeseburger, lobster roll, lobster mac and cheese, steak frites, and chicken parm. Raw bar offerings include East Coast oysters, shrimp cocktail, and sushi rolls. The brunch menu features selections such as pancakes, eggs Benedict, and a bagel with lox and cream cheese. Operated by Dallas’s Vandelay Hospitality Group, Hudson House takes its inspiration from East Coast neighborhood restaurants, particularly those in New York’s West Village.

Maven Coffee begins service at the Thompson Hotel on Wednesday, May 1 (1717 Allen Parkway). The live auction was a theater-lover’s dream,boasting a walk-on roll in the Alley’s beloved Christmas Carol and a luxury trip to enjoy The Devil Wears Pradaon London’s West End up for grabs! The party progressed onto the hypnotic black-and-white dancefloor — a nod to the movie Vertigo — where revelers danced until after midnight to The Big Beyond. Before dinner was served, guests heard from the man himself, Alfred Hitchcock. Well, Alley actor Chris Salazar dressed as Hitchcock welcomed guests alongside fellow company members portraying some of the filmmaker’s most beloved characters from The Birds, Psycho,and Rear Window. Shawn is an editor for Houston's Inner Loop editions, including in the Heights-River Oaks-Montrose and Bellaire-Meyerland-West University communities.

Search HUD properties and buy the best real estate deal in Houston, TX. A Vandelay representative tells CultureMap that the company has shifted East Hampton from a dine-in experience to a locations with smaller footprints that are focused on to-go. The company thinks Hudson House's lively atmosphere gives it broad appeal. “In the Dallas market, we’re pretty well known for our service,” he says.

It has grown to four locations across the Dallas area, with River Oaks being its first outpost beyond the Metroplex. Like the carts, Maven Coffee at the Thompson Hotel serves coffee and coffee-based cocktails such as the espresso martini and carajillo. Having a dedicated space allows the cafe and bar to expand its offerings with teas, pastries, sandwiches, and sweets.

Other martini options include the Bleu & Gold (made with olive juice and blue cheese-stuffed olives) and a Lemon Drop that’s topped with limoncello foam. Two different espresso martinis will satisfy Houstonians’ seemingly limitless cravings for the drink. Again, the plate was cold and the burger was just warm served with barely warm fries. Located on the hotel’s first floor, Maven Coffee has a dedicated entrance near the valet stand. Founded by Astros pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. and his business partners, the new location builds on Maven Coffee’s success operating carts at Minute Maid Park and Toyota Center. Designed to be both a cafe and a cocktail bar, it will serve coffee in the morning with cocktails, wine, and beer beginning at 10 am daily.

Morgan's movie output at this time was not great as he preferred to concentrate his talents on the stage.

House blend roast ground coffee is balanced, smooth and lively

A further modification of the decaf theme, Maxwell House Lite, a reduced-caffeine blend, was introduced nationally in 1992 by Kraft General Foods and in its instant form the following year. It is made from a blend of South and Central American beans and has a rich, full-bodied taste that is sure to satisfy. The Dark Roast is also available in K-Cups for those who prefer the convenience of single-serve brewing. Maxwell House is owned by Kraft Heinz, which is one of the largest food and beverage companies in the world. The company has a strong presence in the coffee industry, with other brands such as Gevalia and Tassimo.

House Blend Medium Roast Ground Coffee

To decaffeinate robusta beans, you strip out the bitter, take out the caffeine and put the bitter back in. Like all dark roasts, Black Silk is lower in caffeine than mild or medium roasts, but not by much. Dark roast coffee has a strong presence, a specific odor and an unmistakable flavor. Like the smell of a charbroiled steak, when you open a great container of dark roast coffee, you know that something special is locked inside that grind. At the same time, it introduced a decaffeinated version of its long-established, lighter-tasting Yuban brand on the West Coast.

Maxwell House Original Roast

While there is some debate on whether the former president truly called Maxwell House coffee “good to the last drop” there is no denying the appeal this coffee has for many. The next time you sit down to enjoy a nice cup of Maxwell House coffee, you can think back on where it came from and who you should be thanking for such a wonderful cup of coffee in your cup. Knowing the reputation of Maxwell House Hotel, Cheek pressed the hotel’s restaurant to carry his new coffee blend. One famous guest, President Theodore Roosevelt, even called the blend, “good to the last drop,” providing Cheek with the slogan we’d all become accustomed to. Smith was a coffee broker who boasted to anyone who would hear him that he could tell the origins of a coffee by simply smelling unroasted, green beans.

Maxwell House Decaf Blend

The product was eventually discontinued, but it helped to establish Maxwell House as a leader in the coffee industry. Most authorities consider robusta beans to be mere fillers as they have a bitter, rather flat taste. Arabica beans are grown primarily in Central America, as well as Brazil and Colombia. For many years, decaf coffee has had a bad reputation because decaf producers used the easy bean, resulting in a dreadful cup of coffee.

Expansion of the product line

In 1928, Cheek-Neal Coffee and Manufacturing was sold to Postum Company for nearly $40 million. Postum decided to change the coffee company’s name to Maxwell House Products Corporation. Maxwell House coffee is made with arabica beans only; the company chose to remove robusta beans from their blend in 2007 per business expert Susan Buchanan of MarketWatch. Both Hazelnut and Vanilla ground coffee are available in a medium roast for a smooth cup of coffee with a hint of sweetness.

Maxwell House Company Information

They now have decaffeinated versions, instant coffee versions, and even measured varieties. Luckily, the Maxwell house line of coffee beans offers drinkers several excellent options. Once settled in Nashville and no longer traveling, Cheek went to work to develop a quality coffee blend rich enough for local hotels and high end eating establishments. While robusta beans contain more caffeine, they have little to no flavor subtlety.

If you enjoy a good cup of decaf, the Maxwell House decaf must come to the top of the list. Their decision to leave behind the nasty, scratchy flavor of robusta beans and use arabica beans for the difficult process of decaffeinating a perfectly good coffee bean is commendable. General Foods marketed decaffeinated coffee under various brand names such as Sanka from c. 1927, and Brim and Maxim, the latter a freeze-dried instant coffee which is not decaffeinated, from the 1950s. But it refrained from selling Maxwell House-labeled decaffeinated coffee products until 1983, when it introduced ground Maxwell House Decaffeinated into East Coast markets. Over the years, Maxwell House has become known for its rich flavor and high quality, thanks in part to the company's commitment to sourcing the best coffee beans from around the world.

In 1992, the company added cappuccino products to its line with Cappio Iced Cappuccino and Maxwell House Cappuccino in 1993. In recent years, the names of these products have been modified by the company to present a more uniform Maxwell House brand image. Maxwell House coffee beans come from a variety of countries, including Brazil, Colombia, Guatemala, and Ethiopia. The coffee beans are first sent to a Westside facility for cleaning and blending before being brought to the plant for roasting, grinding, and packing.

The brand has also spawned several spin-off products over the years, including Hills Bros Coffee and Cafe Bustelo. Despite some setbacks, Maxwell House remains one of the most recognizable and beloved coffee brands in the world. Maxwell House is one of the oldest coffee brands in the United States, with a history dating back to the late 1800s. The brand was founded by Joel Cheek, who met British coffee broker Roger Nolley Smith in Nashville in 1884. The two worked together to create the perfect blend of coffee, which they named "Maxwell House" after the Maxwell House Hotel in Nashville where Cheek often stayed.

It has been one of the highest-selling coffee brands in the United States for many years. The brand has built a reputation for producing quality coffee that is enjoyed by millions of people around the world. From the time you remove the flavor seal, this shiny black ground coffee is intriguing.

Cheek was known for his love of fine coffee and his skill in roasting and blending the perfect cup. He eventually started his own company, the Cheek-Neal Coffee Company, which became one of the largest coffee producers in the world. Maxwell House sources its coffee beans from a variety of countries, including Guatemala.

“It was so much work, but it turned out beautiful.” The firm wanted the space to feel “light and airy and breezy,” and incorporated fabrics and wall coverings by Thibaut in a soft color palette. Peltier and designer Marina Kelly installed an arch to divide the bedroom from the sitting area, breaking up the large space. A palette of whites, deep blues, and gold creates an elegant atmosphere in the formal living room, which was designed by Rachel Duarte. The designer established two seating areas within the space, including a cozy gathering spot with chaise longues that flank the original carved marble fireplace. The room’s coffered ceilings were enhanced with a faux-wood decorative painting by Jhon Ardilla.

In some castles, the gatehouse was so strongly fortified it took on the function of a keep, sometimes referred to as a "gate keep". In the late Middle Ages, some of these arrow loops might have been converted into gun loops (or gun ports). Designer Rachel Scheff used the home’s spectacular ceiling, woodwork, and stained glass as the inspirations for her fanciful, flora- and fauna-filled foyer.

Often the structure would incorporate two flanking towers, which provided greater height, giving defenders a better line of sight, and allowing them to pour fire into the flank of enemy soldiers attacking the gates. However, until the proliferation of the drawbridge, moats were typically crossed by wooden bridges which were removed in the event of a siege. Compared to gates, portcullises were advantageous as they were generally tougher to break through (being made of metal) and could instantly be lowered by a single defender operating the winch (useful in the event of a surprise attack).

Another defensive feature that was particular to gatehouses was murder holes – these were small holes in the ceiling of the gatehouse passage. In the event of enemy soldiers gaining access to the passage, either to attack the gates or to push through the passage into the castle, hot liquids such as boiling water could be dropped onto them through the murder holes. By the end of the medieval period, gatehouses began to be added to grand estates and large fortified manor houses, nominally as defensive measures, but primarily in order to project an image of wealth and prestige. The concentric design rarely made use of free-standing stone keeps, instead of using a series of gatehouses and towers as the primary defensive buildings in the castle. Early motte-and-bailey castles had simple wooden gatehouses set in the bailey wall to cover the gates that led into the bailey, but these were often relatively small structures. Tree-lined stone walkways lead through a detailed flagstone courtyard with a fountain at its center.

He used a limited palette of chartreuse and dark hues that nod to the brick exterior and arranged benches to create intimate seating areas within the larger English-garden-inspired space. A brick-walled patio became a party-ready outdoor kitchen and dining area thanks to Douglas R. Sanicola of Outdoor Elegance. Sanicola and Monique Wood installed Caesarstone countertops fabricated by Carlito’s Way Stone to create a functional space for outdoor entertaining.

Now it’s for sale, with Alyssa Crilley from Washington Fine Properties as the listing agent. As castles became larger during the medieval period and were gradually built of stone rather than wood, so too were castle gatehouses. At the end of the Middle Ages, many gatehouses in England and France were converted into beautiful, grand entrance structures to manor houses or estates.

Usually, a relatively large building set into the curtain wall circuit of a castle, the gatehouse would protect the gate, which was the weakest point of the castle perimeter. Urban defences would sometimes incorporate gatehouses such as Monnow Bridge in Monmouth. York has four important gatehouses, known as "Bars", in its city walls including the Micklegate Bar. Gatehouses made their first appearance in the early antiquity when it became necessary to protect the main entrance to a castle or town. Over time, they evolved into very complicated structures with many lines of defence. Strongly fortified gatehouses would normally include a drawbridge, one or more portcullises, machicolations, arrow loops and possibly even murder-holes where stones would be dropped on attackers.

During my travels I was fascinated by the history and beauty of castles and I created this space to share my passion with you. Gates could also be faced with metal plates in order to make them stronger and resistant to fire. Gatehouses could have multiple wooden gates, and they regularly incorporated portcullises too – many made use of a combination of the two in order to create more lines of defence. However, from the late 12th century, concentric castles began to emerge, vast and complex defensive fortifications based around multiple layers of curtain walls, punctuated by towers. Gatehouses were by no means a medieval innovation – they had been employed since antiquity to guard the gates to cities and other fortifications – but they grew to be increasingly important in the middle ages. Gatehouses have existed since antiquity – as early as there have been fortifications to protect.

As a part of this process, gatehouses faded in military importance, although they still existed as decorative buildings on noble estates. Often their interior rooms were entirely given over to housing servants or guests or else were used for storage. In this way, the gatehouse functioned as the keep had in many earlier medieval castles, to the extent that some were even called ‘gatehouse-keeps’. This could be a large, complex structure that served both as a gateway and lodging or it could have been composed of a gateway through an enclosing wall. A gatehouse is a type of fortified gateway, an entry control point building, enclosing or accompanying a gateway for a town, religious house, castle, manor house, or other fortification building of importance.

“I thought, if somebody’s taking care of the baby, they have a space where they can come and feel like it’s a retreat,” Sabatella says. The designer outfitted a door handcrafted in India with a vintage mirror to create a one of a kind headboard and bathed the space in deep emerald green. The glamorous touches continue in the ensuite bath, where Sabatella added a custom mirror-tiled tub that plays off the vintage French tile floor. The designers worked with a color palette of Dunn-Edwards paints, and several chose to highlight the brand’s 2024 Color of the Year, a steely blue called Skipping Stones. Nods to Pasadena’s famous peacocks can be found throughout the designs, and many creators fearlessly brought in statement floors, enveloped their spaces with jewel tones, and added texture to ceilings. Others focused on bringing the beauty of the estate’s gardens and views inside with verdant murals, floral fabrics, and nature-inspired lighting.

Salads come tossed, with a cheese filled breadstick, and are large enough to share. Gannett then fended off an unwanted bid by MNG Enterprises, better known as Digital First Media, a hedge-fund backed media group with a slash-and-burn reputation for cutting jobs and letting papers wither. Gannett’s last big U.S. print purchase was in 2016, when it bought papers in the Journal Media Group chain for $280 million, including the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and the Commercial Appeal in Memphis. Gannett also owns dailies in major cities such as the Detroit Free Press and Arizona Republic. Several experts said they do not expect the Justice Department to have an issue with the deal, as the two companies have papers in different markets.

Having a wide array of both criminal and legitimate business interests also helps insulate the cartel from the economic disruption of police crackdowns, or drops in the price of street drugs. Over its ultra-violent history, the group has expanded its activities from drug production and trafficking, to kidnapping and extortion, to less predictable turf like the avocado trade and, more recently, time-share scams. Candidates can understand points about family, work, school or leisure, deal with most travel situations, create simple texts on topics of personal interest, and briefly describe experiences, events, dreams, opinions and plans. The most expansive and expansive Gates residence is a 66,000 square foot mansion in Medina, Washington, located not too far from Seattle. This abode is so impressive that it has its own Wikipedia page, which mentions that the property taxes for this estate were an estimated $1.063 million in 2009, when the home was worth approximately $147.5 million.

With a max capacity of 464 pounds, this park supports plenty of kids on its attractions. Dual sprayers on each slide of this Little Tikes water slide ensure the sliding surface stays slick. A large inflatable cushion at the wall’s base serves as a soft landing for kids who fall off. The above shot shows the climbing wall and bounce house area behind the soccer goal. The bounce house provides a good amount of bouncing effect for smaller kids with the amount of air beneath it. It also allows for soft landings, even if the kid jumps off the higher level (or is thrown by dad – though that would never happen).

Takedown is a reverse of the above steps, with the added step of opening the large release hole (shown above). This helps to quickly deflate the toy, but be sure to close it back up before use next time (it’s located on the bottom under the slide area). The UL-certified blower does a great job keeping the bounce house inflated, and didn’t seem to be straining or having any issues during the test period.

These slides range from small models designed for young children to large water parks that cover nearly 250 square feet of space. Features include a climbing wall, curved slide, and hoop with an inflatable basketball, plus there’s a low section in the splash pool’s wall for stepping in and out safely. The water slide can accommodate three kids and comes with an air blower, repair kit, ground stakes, and a storage bag. Inflatable water parks should pack in as many attractions as possible, and few do this as well as Wellfuntime. This inflatable kids’ water slide, which measures some 16 feet by 13 feet, includes two slides, a separate deeper bathing pool, and a climbing wall. The park also comes equipped with an impressive number of sprayers that include a bucket-style waterfall and giant arch.

The edge of the splash pool also has an open exit so kids can safely get out. Wellfuntime also throws in numerous accessories with the park, including four water guns and three inflatable balls.

This inflatable water slide is great if you have bigger kids and little siblings who want to play at the same time. Two slides land in separate pool areas, one of which is smaller and more appropriate for younger children. There’s also a climbing wall, two water cannons, and a tunnel, plus it comes with ground stakes, a patch repair kit, hose, and carrying bag.

It’s made from 420 denier Oxford fabric, and the mesh section at the top of the slide is heavy-duty 840 denier for added stability and safety. All inflatable water slide specs include weight capacities for their inflated parts as well as a maximum number of occupants that can use the slide at one time. It’s important to adhere to these guidelines for safe use of the slide and to prevent damage such as punctures and tears. Medium-size slides typically have a weight capacity of around 350 pounds with a maximum occupancy of four children. REVIEW – Bounce houses were always fun for me as a kid, but even though we have our own little one getting bigger every day I hadn’t ever considered buying one. In my childhood they were always things your affluent friends rented or were seen at special events.

Watch the above video to see why the EZ Wet or Dry Combos manufactured by Magic Jump Inc. is safe to use with water in the bouncing area. Don't be fooled by other companies that say their combos are "wet or dry", when in fact there is nothing safe about them. We cater to the child in every single one of us, bringing to you the safest entertainment equipment possible. Our unique designs are durable, meeting and exceeding the industry standards for safety.

Blowers play a critical role as many slides elevate kids up 5 feet or more off the ground. The slide must maintain proper pressure to avoid a dangerous collapse under the weight of its users. Make sure the slide includes its own blower, or purchase a compatible one if it does not.

We partnered with the best rental software platform on the market to bring you an easy and efficient way to book and keep track of your rental, with our contact-less delivery and ordering process. Our special non-slippery material has actually been tested and approved by the Magic Jump Research and Development Team for safe and fun bouncing with water. However, it is essential to acknowledge that the Cal Jump marketplace does not assume liability for any injuries that may occur during the use of inflatables booked through inflatable sellers.

Wondering how long inflatable water slides last or whether Dad can use it, too? Read on for answers to these and other commonly asked questions about backyard water parks. Blast Zone’s massive pirate-themed inflatable water park provides enough space for a kids’ water slide, an ample pool area, and a bounce house complete with basketball net. A climbing wall leads to the top of the slide while a tunnel underneath leads to the bounce house.

Larger water slides may create a footprint as big as 250 square feet. Even a smaller pool slide for toddlers takes up a fair amount of real estate. Buyers must also consider the slide’s dimensions when broken down, as the slide will need a home in a basement, garage, or shed when not in use. Make sure you purchase a water slide that’s suitable for the children who’ll be using it.
