  Half the games didn’t work and would steal your tickets, basketballs were on top of the basketball games. No employees were around and a bunch of cops showed up, unsure why. Paid $4.99 for dipping dots and nothing came out. Who in there right mind would spend money here

  Horrible communication by staff. Everything is unorganized and staff has Horrible customer service skills. We put our name down for 2 lanes for bowling and we're told it would be a 90 minute wait, at the 90 minute mark we were told it would be another 90 minutes. This place is also filthy. Bathroom was disgusting and floors throughout the restaurant were full of trash.

  Went bowling last night for a friend’s birthday with a group of 12. The lanes we were assigned had a giant pillar in between the two lines which made interacting with everyone very difficult. We asked the staff if we could move to the two lanes at the end where there was no pillar. They said no because they had other reservations. Throughout our two hours of bowling, no other groups showed up to use those lanes. It took 25-30 minutes for a server to come. We ordered drinks at the bar because it was faster. The kitchen was clearly very backed up. It took almost an hour to get our appetizers. We tried to order a pizza & the server said it would take a long time so we decided not to get it. I’m assuming this was a normal Saturday night for the kitchen so I’m not sure what the issue was. Servers & bartenders seemed overwhelmed so I tried not to make a big deal about it. Overall, my friend enjoyed bowling with everyone but I was not happy with the experience. Probably will not return to this location.

  Took my kids there for the arcade. Half the games don’t even work. No signs or communication, so when you swipe your play card, a lot of them take the credits but don’t work. And the ones that do work, don’t work properly (racing games). I know these are expensive games, and can’t imagine the maintenance and upkeep needed…but if you are an arcade, at least have signs on the ones that aren’t working. For example, the Buck Hunter game had 35 credits on it but neither side worked. Steering wheels on some of the racing games are barely hanging on. Spent $120 on game cards and it was like a slot machine hoping it worked after taking your credit. Definitely not worth the prices. Kids had much more fun for $20 an hour at Galloping Ghost in Brookfield and Underground Arcade in West Dundee. Do better.

  We have had 3 bday parties here and twice we have came just to play and hang for a couple hours. Two completely different experiences. For parties it's a go!!! They are amazing. We've always had amazing host They literally took care of everything for me. It really was a 10 out of 10 from the food, service and activities. I was literally able to hang at the bar while they ran my kids entire party. I've never had service like that anywhere else. NOW if you're coming to just hang or on a deal day. It is straight trash and it pains me to say that. Arcade games just take your money, the 2 activities they did have were spaced out by 2 hours. That would be fine if we could eat during that time. But we spent those 2 hours looking for our food. We spoke to 5 different workers and no one could tell me where my food was. Finally it was found and I got it, cold of course. I even saw a mom just leave and bring happy meals for all the kids she had. The employees are really trying for what they have. It's not their fault. Just save your money and go somewhere else. I really tried to like this place
