Emmanuel made inappropriate passes to my wife and would not stop staring at her. He was also being flirty with some of the staff members from what I saw. I asked to speak to a manager and he was the manager on duty allegedly so I could not escalate. Do not hire any more of these weirdos.

Fomos em 4 pessoas hoje e jogamos 2x com 4 pessoas e 3x com 2 pessoas. Deu 270$, sendo que hoje havia uma promoção que era 31.99$ ilimitado. Fomos enganados, além de que nossa pista deu um problema e ficamos mais de 20 minutos esperando arrumar.

Didn’t even step foot inside!! I called Bowlero Times Square with simple reservation questions and the guy who answered was blatantly rude and dismissive. There was no background noise he heard me perfectly but every time I asked something specific he suddenly claimed it was “too noisy” and acted like he couldn’t hear me!! So rude! To top it off he hung up in my ear Clearly didn’t want to do his job. Extremely unprofessional, disrespectful, and a complete waste of time. If this is the level of service before you even arrive save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere.

I made a reservation in advance for a small group for my birthday, which I had written into the notes. They didn't even mention it when we got there. On arrival, we did come late and did not expect them to fulfill the whole time frame because we were late. However, we were told that we had to wait 25 minutes for the lane. We waited for the lane, and then when the time was up we went over to check if it was ready. The front desk said our lane was ready and then said it was not and we had to wait an additional 15 minutes. They told us it was ready again and just told us where to go instead of showing us. We got to our lane and they said they were still cleaning up and had to wait again. We waited a total of 50 minutes! Even if we were late the lane was reserved in advance and should've been available or had a shorter wait period.
The lanes are not as nice as the one by Chelsea piers, they look older and the lighting isn't as nice (why is there grass inside?). It's also less roomy to sit and less arcades available.
Our server was pleasant and attentive, but the kitchen forgot one of our appetizers, which I mentioned to our server, and he asked if we still wanted them. We received the forgotten appetizer about 40 minutes before our lane time was up (2 hour reservation). After our time was up, I went to the bathroom and felt super sick and nauseous. I went outside and walked to the corner and felt even worse. Without too much detail, my stomach was now empty after eating. I will never eat food there again!! Also, I was the only person in my party to eat the pizza which may explain why was the only one who got sick.
Overall not a good experience at all, people in my party even complained. I don't recommend to eat the food there, eat before you go.
