The Pickle Pad is the pickleball eatertainment concept from Indoor Active Brands, the multi-brand franchisor behind Altitude Trampoline Park, giving it franchising infrastructure unusual for a young pickleball brand.

The venue formula pairs indoor pickleball courts with more than 20 social and yard games including cornhole, billiards, and darts, plus Crave Social Eatery, a full-service restaurant and bar with chef-inspired cuisine and curated beverages; select locations add mini golf and golf simulators.

The franchise pitch centers on multiple income streams from leagues, memberships, walk-ins, private parties and events, and the eatery, with memberships providing recurring revenue and labor-planning data, and exclusive vendor partnerships already in place. Financial qualification is published: $400,000 minimum liquidity and $1.5 million minimum net worth, though the franchise fee and total investment range are not disclosed.

Territory is described as growing nationwide, with the application asking for preferred state and city; venues are live in Port Arthur, Texas and Tallahassee, Florida. The stated ideal candidate is a passionate, engaged entrepreneur, with preference for restaurant-industry background.
