Indoor Active Brands, a platform company that focuses on indoor entertainment concepts, announced today the launch of The Pickle Pad. The Pickle Pad combines sport and entertainment in one venue featuring indoor pickleball courts, a chef-inspired restaurant and bar, and a plethora of social gaming options – offering fun for everyone.
The brand’s first U.S. location will open in Tallahassee, Florida at 1925 North Monroe Street (the North Monroe -East Bradford Road intersection) in Spring 2024. The 27,000-square-foot facility will offer six indoor professional grade pickleball courts with casual seating for guests, a full-service restaurant and bar, elevated private areas with billiards, shuffleboard, and darts.
The Pickle Pad is also slated to have indoor green spaces with games that include Cornhole, Ladder Ball, Ping Pong, and Eight-Person Foosball.
The Pickle Pad will also feature PICLZ Pickleball Training Simulator.
“We are excited to bring this awesome venue to the North Monroe Street Corridor,” said Mike Rotondo, CEO of Indoor Active Brands. “Tallahassee is the perfect market to launch The Pickle Pad – as we look to create a destination for both pickleball enthusiasts and novices, offering fun, great food and social activities for the community to enjoy. Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in the U.S., according to the Annual Growth Report published by USA Pickleball. They estimate that 1 in 6 Americans play pickleball! That is why The Pickle Pad will be a great outlet for residents and college students in Tallahassee and beyond.”
The company press release stated that the “venue will allow guests to enjoy top quality food at the restaurant or courtside. It will offer something for everyone, including indulgent treats and healthy options, wine, beer and more.”

@Makin it Happen = When Channel Surfing I have come across the Pickle Ball Tournaments from time to time and would stop and watch for a few. I seen how wild they play and how hard they hit the Ball. If that Ball his hit Hard and the other team misses it and the Ball is high enough, someone can get hurt there since they are sitting right there at the Fence and the fence looks to be just 36 inches high……..just saying.
So.. you’ll be running Dungeons and Dragons games in there?
David you should get out more, go check the pickle ball courts at the park in Southwood. Although it appears to be somewhat of fad, it is an emergent religion out there.
I have seen Pickleball on TV a few times and believe me, You might want to raise those Fences up to 6 Feet.
What are you NOT telling us? I see just 7 Pick Nick Style Tables. Do pay to enter? Do you pay to Play Pickleball? Do you pay to shoot Pool or Darts? I see the Dart Area but not the Pool Tables.
