    We have recently partnered with Dave & Busters Southpark Meadows for our 2025-2026 Austin Bats team! We are having an excellent experience and the service is always immaculate from start to finish. We are warmly greeted and seamlessly directed to our station upon arrival. A huge thank you to Karson at the bar, who made sure to get our orders quickly even while working our event. And thanks to James for the great attention to detail in coordinating our events. The staff truly makes our events special. Highly recommend this location!

    I love this Dave and Buster’s, I had a blast here a few weeks ago with my dance team friends! It was my first time at a Dave and Buster’s, but I will definitely be coming back with more of my family and friends! The staff and the manager James were all so kind, attentive and warm, the food was absolutely delicious (the pickle fries and burgers are to die for 😋) and the games were so much fun. I loved the ambiance of this location and it’s a great place for adults and kids alike, highly recommend!

    I met the manager James at one of the Austin Bats Basketball games and he and his team are so kind and attentive! I loved visiting the location after the basketball game and enjoying the fried pickles! 😍

    Bar service is absent to say the least. Had to call over the bar tender and ask for a drink after I sat down for a few minutes. No “hello” or “what can I get for you”. Just a nod like I was a burden. Had to ask to order food and any refills I needed. Sat and watched the 2 bar tenders count their cash tips while waiting to close out my tab. I won’t be back.
