  It was good. This was my second time going here. Every time they never had my size shoe. I always blame my score on the shoes.

  RACISM! I went today with my 8 year old and we were watched the entire time we bowled this made me feel very uncomfortable, also two employees refused to give me there names but they were extremely rude I definitely wouldn’t recommend this location to anyone of color or with children..really wish i could give no star at all!!

  I feel that the whole facility is worn down and needs a lot of facelift

  Summary: 1. Look at the specials before going to Bowlero Mechanicsville 2. Bad experiences with Victor's and Andrew's level of customer service. 3. Bud light pitchers are $23 each (sorry, I was surprised so I added this) Details: My friends and I came in to bowl without realizing that Bowlero in Mechanicsville was running specials. We each bowled three games, and it wasn’t until checkout that we noticed the deals being advertised on the monitors. When I asked whether we could apply the special, Victor at the front desk told me that the special had to be requested before our party started bowling. This isn’t really about the money, but about customer service. Between the four of us, we spent over $250 and had a great time. What bothered me most was that Victor made no effort to see if anything could be done. He didn’t ask a manager or attempt to accommodate the request—just a blunt “you were supposed to request that special before bowling.” Having worked in customer service myself, I know there is often some flexibility with promotions. While I understand Victor may simply have been following corporate guidance, the lack of effort or empathy was disappointing. Additionally, Andrew, another cashier, did not mention any of the specials when we arrived, which also reflects poorly on the overall customer experience. Customers shouldn’t have to hunt for deals that are actively being promoted. I’ve visited the West Broad location before, where an employee proactively offered specials for my son and me without us even asking. That kind of attentiveness made us feel valued and represented excellent customer service. Unfortunately, that level of service seems to be increasingly rare.

  Bowlero is generally a very clean and well-kept bowling center, even with how busy it often gets. It can definitely be crowded, which speaks to how popular it is. They offer a wide range of bowling league nights for all skill levels, from beginners to more experienced bowlers, which creates a great sense of community. The large arcade and prize center are a lot of fun, and having billiards tables and a full bowling pro shop on site really adds to the overall experience. It’s easy to spend several hours here with friends or family. The only downside is the smoking situation and food prices…. Not comparable to anywhere else. Very expensive. Unfortunately, you have to walk past smokers when entering and leaving, and some people also smoke out the back or in the bathrooms. This often leads to lingering smoke inside, making the air uncomfortable and difficult to breathe at times. It would be much better if this was more closely monitored and if the back doors were kept locked to prevent smoke from coming inside. Overall, Bowlero is a great place to bowl and hang out, and addressing this one issue would make it an even better experience for everyone.
