Im from out of town and wanted to take the kids out for some fun. Was my first time visiting. I thought it was a great place to spend a few hours. Kids had a great time at the arcades and my brother in law and I played some pool with a nice cold beer. The ambiance was nice and the experience was fun. The pizza looked really good so will be trying that next time I go. Definitely recommended.

Lots of arcade games. The granddaughters enjoyed it on a hot summer afternoon

The bowling was a great time, everything worked, easy systems food and drink service was quick. The games side of things tanked the review for me. Paid for the $50 game card package. Consistently ran into games that took our credits but didn't work. Notified staff multiple times and was refunded some credits but nothing says fun birthday like standing in line every five minutes to get credits refunded because the basketball game doesn't work, or the entire line of skeeball games were down at the same time. Eventually gave up letting them know since no one could be bothered to follow up and put out of order signs on the games we had issues with and again, birthday celebration. Bowling was quick easy and fun. Staff was 50/50 on happy helpful or just seeming like they'd rather be anywhere else. Pricing was really fair, just wish the games didn't end up taking over half our credits. Will be going somewhere else next time.

We always have a blast when we go! Recently, we came for part 2 of my daughter’s bday party. Her friends loved it! I wish there was a special of some kind for people who spend more than $100 in game cards. I bought $200 in game cards and it cost me…$200. We still had fun though.

First time going Main Event. 20$ gets you access to a lot of the building. You get pool table, shuffle board, bowling for 4$, laser tag, and a rope walk. The arcade and food is separate. Will say the bar area was nice and the food was great. The only down side was it was packed long wait times to bowl. So get there early and make a few reservations for times to do activities. Will definitely go back!

It was so much fun. Go before 12 for the $14.99 everything included except video games, You'll need to purchase that separately. Gets packed within the first hour of being open. Laser tag a blast. The gravity ropes, they only let you on 10 minutes...make sure to reserve your spot asap for laser tag and gravity ropes at the gift/prize shop.We had lots of fun and you get hot quick.?Enjoy!

This place is your typical fum zone with bowling, billiards, gravity ropes, laser tag, and arcade games with prizes. They have a bar and serve a small selection of foods, with both adult and children portions and beverages. The Monday unlimited passes are very popular, which can cause a stand in line up to a half hour or more. These passes do not give tickets though, and do not let you play a game more than three times without a break and moving on to another game, or in my case, moving from one skee ball machine to another and back. The food is fresh. I had a cheese pizza. I had to blot off some grease, personal preference, and only ate half, larger appetites might be able to do the entire thing. My husband's burger was large and tastey and came with fresh hot fries. I would recommend this place for a variety of activities.

Did the 600min all you can play deal and had an amazing experience for reasonable prices. The staff was very friendly and understanding for my birthday party needs. The facility was kept clean and sanitized when needed. I definitely recommend this to anyone wanting a fun time at an arcade with billards, bowling, laser tag, and more.

Kitchen closes at 9, even thought they said we could order after 9.

Seriously the worst treatment! Website said they were open until 2am. There was a small sign on the door saying they closed at 11pm that night for a private event. We were there watching the UNC v Duke game. They had the nerve to turn all the TV’s off at 10:48pm, with less than 2 minutes left in the game, to try and force us to leave! So we were all trying to watch the end of the very close game on our phones and they shut the WiFi off too! Then, with 15 seconds left they had the police show up to kick us out! All for an AfterProm party not arriving until midnight. It was only 11pm on a Saturday when they forced us out. I mean, you’d think they would have told us at halftime to leave or just be kind and let us watch the last two minutes! They turned the TV’s and WiFi off before closing time. We had spent a lot of money there in the 3 hours we were there, we deserved to be treated with respect. It was just such a crappy move by management. We will never be back.
