An awesome environment, full of games, great food, and memorable experiences. The management team is very professional. All of the workers make it a really cool place to hang out. It's very kid friendly and there's a great bar with really nice servers. It's the kind of place you want to keep coming back to.

Had fun bowling with my friend. Good food and drinks and arcade has a wide variety of games

there's definitely no shortage of things for kids and adults to do my only minor complaint is that we went on a Friday night so it was very busy obviously but I would say 75% of the employees were snarky teenagers who had no idea what they were doing could care less if they helped you and had really nasty attitudes towards not just like the adults but kids too however the adult employees that you guys have went above and beyond and it very nearly made up for them

It was fun but a lot of the games took our credit and did not work. The restaurant there has awful to no service at all. The consession station was sub par over priced. Kids were happy, that's what counts. Ice maker didn't work some of the soda choices were just seltzer water. Oh and the dish they serve the ice cream in has a cancer warning ⚠️ on the bottom of the cup. Saving grace is the kids enjoyed themselves. Glad we went when it was 11.99 so it was cheap enough fun for hours. Hope they can do better. I will re-review in summer.

It was a Wednesday night the employees were doing nothing.. it wasn’t crowded… it was soo incredibly gross… There was a caution sign on a spill when we came… (one of the spills had a sign at least… when we left…. Still there … really bad ..

Drinks were good. Games were good. When understanding the credit system a lot of the games are like 7.5 credits to play. You get a game card from a machine unless you order a meal that includes a game card with it. Some of those deals are crazy good. Like a $33 entree but u get a $30 game card making the food $3. That is a good deal. My girl wanted to stop here on our 3.5 hour trip home from ocmd for her birthday. It was a good decision.

Took my sons and nephews to Main Event on Spring Break. Decent price on Laser Tag $8.50 per person. Not sure why they charge $2 for activation fee on arcade game cards. Could use help in Winners Choice to keep things flowing. Saw employees cleaning up,wiping down tables and checking/maintenance games. Would have liked to seen covid procedures for games such as wiping down occasionally. Overall, had a nice Afternoon and was able to get in and out.

Main Event is a fantastic family game complex that is great for a birthday party or maybe just a fun time out. Bowling, laser tag and gravity climbing are a few activities kids and adults can enjoy. There's a huge arcade floor to keep everyone busy, Winners Choice to cash in on game victories, a food counter with lots of delicious food and drink choices. Adults can enjoy a cocktail, cold beer and sports on the big screen at a widespread bar. We were there for a kid birthday party and our dedicated host made the frenzied pace workable and enjoyable. Tip these young people well!! They work hard to make sure a great time is had by all and they deserve it! We will definitely be returning at some point.

I love how many activities they have available for kids of all ages and that includes the adults. They have laser tag. An indoor zipline thing. Pool and bowling and a photobooth. Its a great one stop shop for date night or a kids party. My only caviat they need more staff at the food area as the only thing they seemed to have in stock was soda. Pizza and 2 icee flavors.
